23. So, what is the long-term solution? What's the endgame?

Do you think they'll simply get tired of watching nothing happen there and eventually go home?

Do you think they will engage with the border patrol until someone gets shot?

Which do you think is more likely?

Meanwhile, Abbot keeps putting up more razor wire and the Border Patrol keeps taking it down. And Congress refuses to sign a bill that will effectively shut down the border today. The longer this performative bullshit goes on there, the less focus is on the do-nothings in the House. It's not a good look for Biden. The focus needs to be on the House refusing to accept what they demanded.

the only way this ends peacefully (and maybe not even then) is if the SCOTUS FORCES Abbott to take down the wire, forbids him from putting up more, FORCES him to open the park back up, and FORCES him to stand down and allow the Border Patrol to do their jobs, unhindered. But as it stands, the mouth-breathers are already there and they are armed. This will not end quietly.

Those yahoos need to be cleared out of the area before they initiate their own Ruby Ridge. Think the Border Patrol won't shoot back when one of these idiots fires on them?

So I ask, what's the endgame?
