Was just on this. Ed Martin seems a genuine populist, not just a Republican who's tough on immigration (though he's that). Receptive to a @DouthatNYT-like alternative that would steal the Dems' best ideas. If @RealDonaldTrump were smart he'd give him a prominent job. https://t.co/Oot8kqixbq

Even if they don't qualify for asylum,,"it is the act of coming over, applying for it and waiting for the legal process to play out that has become such an alluring way for impoverished migrants to live and work in the [US], if only for a few years." https://t.co/G64ZRQe1ED

So if VoteCast is accurate (eg people who say they're sure to vote all actually vote) you already know the results of the election, right? Who won? https://t.co/qMgpNPOkYY

Classic nonsensical "norm": Trump can appear at his rallies, why can't his top aides? None of them is technically on the ballot. All have right to free speech. We're supposed to think they are neutral in the election? Part of doomed attempt to separate governance from politics. https://t.co/9Xm2eRB3yG

Democrats' failure to deal with caravan is a synecdoche for their failure to deal with reality on immigration (ie that open door=hundreds of millions) and maybe in other areas (eg paying for income guarantees), Totally legit campaign issue.

Hmm. What happened to @Politico's" Democrats see late surge in Senate battlegrounds"? Seems to have disappeared, replaced by "Trump scrambles to save Senate." I am beginning to lose faith in @Politico. https://t.co/cQqIxxbbrn

Remember the rules: If GOPs win, it's because of the economy. If GOPs lose, it's immigration.

"We can talk about the economy, but the fact is, we know how well we're doing with the economy and we have to solve problems." David Gergen or Trump? (Answer: Trump, making the responsible Kennedy-School point, for which he's being lambasted by the CW) https://t.co/enrrOXQdOZ

PROGRESS: Last week @PhilipRucker said the caravan consisted "mostly of families." https://t.co/h82jC6Delz Today he merely says it "includes many women and children." https://t.co/3BkYP0zf4Q This isn't even a "stealth correction" since he never corrected the first story at all.
