If Trump was planning "to buy women's silence as far back as 2014" doesn't that HELP his defense? He wasn't candidate in 2014. Helps him argue he was buying silence for lots of other reasons–protect his marriage, brand, etc.–so not campaign contribution https://t.co/tD2JV0YdBW

CONFUSED: "Each approach was met with enthusiasm,"– Garrett Graff (@vermontgmg). But "Cohen didn't follow up on the information …" That's enthusiasm? https://t.co/UfQE2zfK8y via @WIRED

So it all comes down to this particular structure? Why is her barrier "moral" and Trump's higher barrier "immoral"? Because Trump's barrier might work? If we knocked a foot off the top, would it be more moral? https://t.co/4LSlxKAWPp

The DACAns are very well-organized & have a lot of juice in the Dem caucus, as Pelosi well knows. They want a "permanent…solution." Pelosi will sacrifice them? She might get some blowback for this. How would agreeing to a Wall hurt current illegals? Wall doesn't deport anyone. https://t.co/CEvrWwZc92

Stewart may have won the PR but he was so wrong. Today we'd be grateful for a Crossfire-like show–informed people arguing with each other, not just agreeing with each other. https://t.co/rxKon41dxN https://t.co/mbzkk5HN22

REUPPING: The "forces of production" (movers of history to Marxists–a useful concept) are changing in ways the prophets of globalism may not have anticipated. Certainly not anticipated here https://t.co/0qB6yHkP4S https://t.co/aCIVisCzIH

I nominate you! Densepack theory: You have offended so many people that none of them can get traction to complain. And the moment calls for a statesman. https://t.co/cJ34u4Jsss

He's running.
(Carlson, that is.)
I've heard crazier ideas.
Someone has to carry the Trump/populist cause forward. It ain't going to be Mike Pence.
Carlson gives a rousing speech.
Can talk to deplorables and elites.
Can win debates.
Make Jon Stewart suffer! https://t.co/Kt0eVUmiMA— Mickey Kaus (@kausmickey) December 7, 2018

“He knows very little about the legislative process, hasn’t learned anything, hasn’t surrounded himself with people that can get it done, hasn’t done all the things you need to do, so it’s mostly his fault that he hasn’t achieved those things,” https://t.co/Kt0eVUmiMA

The money's important-especially in funding the think tanks & mags where the amnesty-klatura can find a perch. (a Michael Lind point https://t.co/zcZs6gLvuj). But they also believe the delusional consultants' line about GOPs winning over Latinos. Maybe without the $ they wouldn't https://t.co/A38ehN3h5H

Not verified, not TSA Pre, not on a cruise. That's as intersectional as I can get.

SQUISHADAMMERUNG: On other hand, Valadao joins Denham, Curbelo, Coffman, Yoder & Ros-Lehtinen on list of prominent GOP immigration squishes who won't be around to give "bipartisan" label to bad loose-borders proposals. (Sure I'm leaving someone out.) https://t.co/6mmBK5r8qv

If Trump's proposed wall is "immoral," as Pelosi says, are the current, less effective walls protecting California's southern border also "immoral"? Is she planning to tear them down? https://t.co/fTrCnz6elL

McConnell also split the vote up among many differeent competing bills, making it harder for Trump's reforms. The question is WHY DID @realDonaldTrump LET THEM DO IT? Did Obama let Harry Reid screw him? Did LBJ let Sam Rayburn screw him? They couldn't cut deal on joint strategy? https://t.co/LHTzWDLP2P

Right. The "factory of the future" might not have the globalist's "supply chain." … Not at all clear the 'arc of history' is on their side. https://t.co/0W73ddYXD1 https://t.co/SlI3XlCAQS

An important (non-dispositive) point. Caravan migrants are clearly energetic and persistent. They could do a lot of good in their home countries. https://t.co/UFRUVh7Wnq
