If McConnell had a vote on it, it would have had over 60 votes. But McConnell has prostrated himself to trump instead of using the power of the majority GOP. sucks to have wimp losers for your leaders, doesn't it?
They did have a vote, are you not even reading the very link you provided? They got 54....why did they need 60....good lord, be honest with yourself....

I'm actually surprised it did as well as it did. It was pretty dumb to start with.
But it created one heck of a mailing list.
How much might that be worth on the “open” market.
“Brian Kolfage, the veteran who created the GoFundMe campaign to raise money for the wall, now has a potentially lucrative list of emails thanks to the fundraiser, according to NBC News.
NBC News reported that Kolfage, who was associated with websites that published false stories and had pages shut down by Facebook, claims to have gathered 3.5 million email addresses through his border wall campaign.”
The federal government has posted signs along a major interstate highway in Arizona, more than 100 miles north of the U.S.-Mexico border, warning travelers the area is unsafe because of drug and alien smugglers, and a local sheriff says Mexican drug cartels now control some parts of the state.
The signs were posted by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) along a 60-mile stretch of Interstate 8 between Casa Grande and Gila Bend, a major east-west corridor linking Tucson and Phoenix with San Diego.
They warn travelers that they are entering an “active drug and human smuggling area” and they may encounter “armed criminals and smuggling vehicles traveling at high rates of speed.” Beginning less than 50 miles south of Phoenix, the signs encourage travelers to “use public lands north of Interstate 8” and to call 911 if they “see suspicious activity.”
As usual, the Left is so anxious to believe their own nonsense that they fall all over themselves to spread the word.
Go back and read all the celebrating and "I knew it all along". Then laugh.
The Wall is still on. Read the text.

That is because most of the GOP senators voted against it, probably following the demands of their leader.
Quote:
The so-called Common Sense Caucus, a large bipartisan group led by Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME), released its own outline. The plan had gained the endorsement of Democratic leadership and was technically sponsored by Minority Leader Chuck Schumer. The “Common Sense” plan would have:
-Provided a path to citizenship for 1.8 million undocumented immigrants who came to the country as children
-Offered $25 billion for border security
-Prevented DACA recipients from sponsoring their parents for legal status
It failed 54 to 45. Democrats almost unanimously backed the plan, along with eight Republicans. But the rest of the GOP conference and a handful of Democrats blocked the bill.
^^^^see above. You present facts in the same fashion as Sarah Husterabee.
The bill failed because most of the GOP Senators voted against it! For those who are just reading: A bill passed by almost all democrats in senate provided 25 billion in funding for a border wall but almost all of the GOP senators voted against it!

Although we've all been well trained not to believe anything from the media unless it's Fox News, I guess that only applies if the reporting is viewed to be liberal in nature...
TV station backs off accusation that CNN played politics
The San Diego station "is unaffiliated with any broadcast network and owned by McKinnon Broadcasting Co. Its general manager, Michael McKinnon, was described by the San Diego Business Journal as a “longtime supporter of conservative causes and candidates in the San Diego area.”
Why can you not stick with the first link you provided? Because you cannot be honest....and have to find more links because your first link cannot support what you say....
