Unlike Trump, Bush 43 "carefully planned" policiy rollouts under Josh Bolten and "mastermind" Karl Rove! True, they made a few "mistakes"– like wasting Bush's entire 2d term on misguided Social Security and immigration bills. https://t.co/T1xbsmjZBo

Respectables worry about activist Kochs owning TIME, but not activist Emerson Collective (Laurene Powell Jobs) owning @TheAtlantic? Here's Emerson now running TV ads pushing "DREAM" amnesty https://t.co/UuEyBuANHd Anybody ask Jobs to swear off interference?

Instead of calling it "ending chain migration," how about "pause in extended family immigration"? Essentially the same thing, but the latter seems more comprehensible to voters https://t.co/nQT2ci0ANE
