Good point from @MarkHalperin: What does Haley think of the Senate border/Ukraine bill? Has she been asked?

Maybe this [worth reading] is the long-awaited Biden plan to avoid getting hammered on immigration. He’s counting on the Feiler Faster principle to help voters forget the last 3 years. The cartels may well help out–do less business for a few months in exchange for 4 more years. https://t.co/wfiTpETfFA

Not sure about the blowback. They said Bill Clinton would face blowback from his left for signing welfare reform in 1996. It evaporated quickly. Fetterman’s polls have gone UP since he took a harder line on the border. Biden’s probably would too. https://t.co/TTiNGfcYVI

If Johnson holds out long enough, he just might get something big and effective — like a reinstatement of Remain in Mexico, or mandatory nationwide E-verify. No reason to go for the pathetic McConnell/Lankford ass-covering package of Potemkin. https://t.co/WnbJsLl8tt

Does Rubio think voters will buy that? All the talk about “pressure” on Johnson is a way to gloss over that he has almost ALL the leverage. Biden’s increasingly desperate to fix his bleeding border problem, to get Ukraine aid and Israel aid. Does Johnson face anything comparable? https://t.co/Zn4zvDqMLK

I’m not so sure. Trump’s speech last night to a full house in Manchester was (I reluctantly realized) highly effective. He didn’t ramble and he kept all the defects (eg grievances) in check or hidden. No signs of dementia. https://t.co/tZLaeOoCMt
