In a Truth Social post, Trump attacked Biden − and Hamas − by accusing the president of “taking the side of these terrorists, just like he has sided with the Radical Mobs taking over our college campuses.”

Actually, they demanded that all foreign aid was wrapped into one package and border security be added. So, there was a long negotiation on border security. The Senate got through that, passed it and sent it to the House. Trump then told the House Republicans that he wanted to use border security as a campaign issue. So Johnson sat on it another three months, created his own bill without border security, and passed it. The Senate followed, and put it on Biden’s desk.
Yes you’re both correct. It was during that three month period (late January to April) after the version with border security got killed by Trump’s meddling, where Republicans were trying to push a stand alone Israel aid bill without Ukraine aid, and Biden issued his veto threat to any standalone Israel aid bill. The article the person you’re replying to linked was in February, after the border security version one with everything together had failed.
Sure, Johnson was trying to find alternatives and decided just to strip out border security in the end. He and Trump figured out that if Ukraine was lost they would be blamed. Biden, for his part, didn’t want piecemeal legislation at that point.
This election couldn’t come sooner.
If that’s how you feel, you’re in for a bad next four and half years.
I think Biden will get back in. That will be far better than hearing from Trump anymore…
