ASYLUM SURGE:** Big surge of undoc. family migrants across border in Yuma, AZ, claiming asylum. 1) Not connected to caravan. 2) They're getting in. (Because facilities are "overwhlemed") https://t.co/nPYNdKNvoj

Trump says 'good time' for a government shutdown if no money for border wall https://t.co/9UfWUs0SW2 Again, key isn't so much $ amount as whether it continues to prevent him from building *his* kind of wall (instead of easily scaled bollard fences, for example)

Yet another piece comparing Trump to Erdogan & Chavez ("democratically elected leaders who slowly chip away at their country’s institutions to consolidate control") that mainy shows how far away he is from them. (Has Trump "silence[d] civil society"?) https://t.co/3vQLQDtNVu

Something seems odd about this negotiation. The Constitution gives Trump veto power, not McConnell. Pres. Clinton regularly pushed back against BOTH parties during welfare negotiations–it was White House vs. Congress. They have to please Trump, no?–not vice-versa. https://t.co/k9ccR3mymK

What i take away from this: The symbolism of a wall is important. Barbed wire, like the wall itself, sends the message "there is a border here which we intend to enforce." That's another reason to build Trump's wall: the symbolism. It's not a bug (undiplomatic!). it's a feature. https://t.co/90sFboqhTL
