So Trump can pick & choose which to sign? Doesn't have to shut down the whole government? This could get interesting … https://t.co/TaF16fEENt

I dunno. I'm with stupid. I mainly blame Trump for acceding but I think different GOP leaders could have gotten a few billion for Trump's wall in March. It's not like GOP rank & file HATED the wall. They just had other priorities. They could have been forced to adjust, no? https://t.co/pBvwdREbeI

When has President @realDonaldTrump gotten Ryan & McConnell to do *anything* they didn't want to do? (There could be examples. I just can't think of them …)

From March: "Republicans didn't fight very hard for a wall, either. And the leadership from the White House that would have been required to win a fight just wasn't there" https://t.co/RQ11uFm19M

Why keep the Flores ('release after 20 days') decree for unaccompanied minors? Won't that just mean more Central Americans will send their kids solo on dangerous journey (knowing will be released into US)? https://t.co/G2sZ3mPu9I Better to totally nuke Flores, no?

I WOULD NOT CITE: This uses not standard pov line but bespoke "California Poverty Measure" based on deceptive federal "Supplemental" pov. measure, which MEASURES INEQUALITY, NOT POVERTY https://t.co/P7W0fs9YJF Geared to 33d percentile. Of course 46% will be "near… threshold." https://t.co/O88ReXO27Q

Ryan does seem to be setting up a helluva lame duck session where he can "run through the tape" by passing his legacy amnesty with Dem votes. https://t.co/uxO491LffD #stayparanoid https://t.co/UW5oT6DlY7

Remember, there was a *lot* of spending in the March omnibus that Dems really wanted. Ryan & McConnell couldn't have gotten a few miles of Trump wall for that? (Trump's fault too, of course. But can't argue wall funding was impossible because of Senate Dem filibuster). https://t.co/SCj3UcXsFd

"Overlooked No More" is a pretty arrogant headline, no? As if you can't have been noticed unless you're written up in the @NYTimes–as if NYT's mistake is society's. A lot of people knew about this woman, in part thru her son & foundation https://t.co/oZIrZqIHs0

If Ryan didn't want a shutdown drama this fall, he shouldn't have stiffed Trump on the omnibus in March, no? IIRC Trump was shut out in March not because of Dem opposition but weak GOP leadership support https://t.co/uOdiIhzaVd

"China is Losing the Trade War With Trump" https://t.co/YxrrobSGb9 Nagging doubt: Suppose Trump achieves something closer to pure reciprocal free trade. Don't US unskilled workers lose out under pure free trade? Don't we want to keep protecting a sphere of key industries–eg auto

You've had several chances to get the Wall. Every time you seem to instead choose cooperating with Ryan & McConnell, with assurances you'll get Wall sometime down the road. Road may be ending, esp. if lose the House. Presidents only get so many chances. https://t.co/VWv2ztTLEq

If Trump won't THREATEN TO VETO this disastrous make-a-claim-get-to-stay expansion of asylum–when even its promoter, @kevinyoder, is waffling on it–when will he exercise his power? If the amendment dies now that would take a chit away from Ryan/Mcconnell later, no? https://t.co/yjVwa7Fbas

THIS IS HOW THE WALL GETS BLOCKED "Republicans weigh punting Trump border wall fight until after midterms" https://t.co/Gl4E3NvTI6 So Trump has ONE SHOT to get a wall in the lame duck before Speaker Pelosi (or Ocasio-Cortez) takes over? Will Dems be any *more* amenable then?

You mean sort of like sponsoring a firearms safety program with the National Rifle Association? Don't have to endorse all their program! That would be uncontroversial. https://t.co/bwD84R07kr
