.@Acosta performance helps a) Acosta b) Trump. Raises obvious question: Does @CNN actually want Trump to survive because it's making decent enough money from the Resistance Show? https://t.co/TJkwlQ9niO Imagine the ratings under Pres. Pence https://t.co/GCuSk31lQS

If the mechanism is a deal for DACA, and the goal is to get scared Trump state Dem senators to defect (rather than having to cut a deal acceptable to Schumer) the odds of getting defections are obviously a lot greater BEFORE mid-term, no? Not many Trump state Dems up in 2020. https://t.co/Nydoc1bKBP

Persuasive as a way for GOP to do better in mid-terms. Needs roadmap for how that actually gets immigration reforms and wall–other than by abolishing the filibuster, which seems unlikely to happen. https://t.co/o8eDM1FhiW

ASCEND, DAMMIT! Latinos failing to play appointed role (obsessively favoring loose borders) in Coalition of the Ascendant. "The reality is there are about one-third of Texas Hispanics who hold relatively restrictionist attitudes." @RonBrownstein's worried https://t.co/Pw8WwP9fKc

Also, even under Trump, we still take more refugees than any other country–about a third of the world's total https://t.co/sCXUg1MdTM

To be more precise: 1.1% are "emergency" cases. 6.4% are "urgent." The rest have "no immediate medical, social, or security concerns." https://t.co/LvRsf0hCso

Over 90% of refugees up for resettlement are not in danger, UN's own data show. They're safe in "host" countries. https://t.co/3PiJ1N4dgE

Often the "norms" Trump breaks are dumb. The idea that he can't endorse the opponent of a sitting governor of his party is one of them, no? https://t.co/hUCElNGWZL

The Southern Poverty Law Center sponsors public radio now? Think that's what my car speaker just said. Would be a wise investment. (Doesn't public radio vet?)

IF: If GOPs lose this red seat on Tuesday, that militates in favor of a Trump shutdown-before-Nov strategy, no? Clearly the McConnell/Ryan don't-rock-boat run-on-economy plan would be heading for a House loss anyway. https://t.co/ipPD9ynykZ

If the Russians had the goods on Candidate X (obtained legally) and gave them to, say, the @NYTimes, the Times wouldn't publish the story? https://t.co/4rHdXlhKt1 Yet if they did, Candidate X's opponent would still owe the Russians.
