Inflation’s a problem. Biden’s age is a problem, But “[i]mmigration is rocket fuel for any Republican running against Biden. Immigration is rocket fuel for populists generally (viz: The Netherlands, Germany, France, Italy, etc.)…. It’s not just a ‘deplorables’ issue.” https://t.co/Htg99xN2Hr

“Biden’s border policy record is so unpopular, he has little reason to continue holding full ownership of it. Better to be able to say both parties are architects of the border strategy.”

How does suing to block Texas’ floating border-barrier help Biden with his (richly deserved) rep for failing to stop illegal immigration? Wouldn’t it be smarter if he federalized it and adopted it? Biden’s border failure will elect Trump. https://t.co/LeG3ObAO3Q

It’s hard not to notice that the greatest stretch of economic growth in US history, the postwar boom that made the American middle class and cemented a national identity, happened when immigration was sharply restricted (and ended when the restrictions ended). https://t.co/D5dmhgazib

In formerly normal politics, when your opponent is getting traction on an issue, you take steps to blunt it by at least partially addressing the underlying concern. (See Clinton, B., “Welfare as we know it”) Today’s Democrats are oblivious, and they will elect Trump. https://t.co/tO3rcGUz2v
