No, for 75% + of America it's about:
A. The economy stupid! Americans want government to spend less and keep inflation and prices low.
B. Stopping illegal immigration. Americans overwhelmingly are against illegal immigration and want a secure border and illegals deported.
C. The government not telling us we have to go green on everything from our choice of cars to what kind of air conditioner and stove we can buy.
D. About ending shit like lawfare and the use of government to repress citizens
E. Not using tax money to buy votes like forgiving student loan debt for starters.
You want democracy? You won't get it from the Democrats or Biden, that's for damn sure.
Then why did Trump stop the bill that was supposed to fix the immigration problem? Immigration is an issue the Reds want to keep.
The others, you are just an ill-informed sucker for Trump.

Because it didn't "fix" the immigration problem. Instead, it rewarded criminal activity by legalizing those here illegally while doing little or nothing to secure the border. The first time that ploy was pulled by the Left was during the Reagan administration. SSDD.
It did not. https://www.factcheck.org/2024/02/unraveling-misinformation-about-bipartisan-immigration-bill/ Every word you typed is wrong.

Even the NYT agrees it wasn't a fix to the problem, just a feel good band-aid.
Opinion | This Immigration Bill Was Never Going to Fix the Border
If more money would stop people coming to America, we would have paid for the solution years ago.
CBS says what I said
Bipartisan immigration bill would boost border funds, expand lawful migration and legalize some immigrants
Like other comprehensive immigration bills, the proposal by Reps. María Elvira Salazar and Veronica Escobar faces steep odds in a deeply divided Congress.
