Trump just claimed there's a Dem bill called "the Open Borders Bill" written by Feinstein [View all]

I'm not watching his insane rant, but have been following Daniel Dale's tweets:

Trump just making stuff up: "Every single Democrat in the U.S. Senate has signed up for the open borders - and it's a bill. And it's called The Open Borders Bill. What's going on? And it's written by - guess who - Dianne Feinstein."

What I think happened here: Trump's prepared text included his usual language about Democrats signing up for an "open borders agenda," but Trump decided mid-sentence to lie that there is a bill called The Open Borders Bill.
