“waiting years for an answer to their case”: More hard-to-believe cluelessness from @NYTimes, as if multi-year delays aren’t the migrants’ friend. 1) They will likely lose their cases (because the asylum claim is bogus), but 2) during the delay they get to stay & work in US,… https://t.co/7yiZW7hg53

Kind of monumentally clueless that the @NYTimes thought there was credible hope for a “comprehensive immigration deal” (i.e. amnesty + as little border security as Dems think they can get away with), no? https://t.co/LBjnF7tYAo

Key phrase is “than any other option provided.” Yes, fewer consider “wokeness” a problem than they do “border security,” or inflation. Duh. But 41% doesn’t seem chopped liver.

Hmm. What if it turns out the border crisis upsets voters, causing *some* college whites and blacks to either defect or stay home? Seems to me you don’t need a recession for Trump to win (p.s,: not the outcome I want). https://t.co/sKpD1AVt4h

The two possibilities seem to be 1) textbook failure of leadership by Biden, who wants numbers to go down but doesn’t grapple with problem 2) Biden producing exactly what he wants–millions of migrants in US (who cares if asylum claims are legit?) https://t.co/HGSDcDRnSD

Isn’t the answer to Dense Pack a Synecdoche approach?
