That still seems a strange, stuffy ethical rule. (Prevents *only* the appearance of conflict, not the conflict.) https://t.co/3WXEgfMqpw

An effective wall would eliminate the need for so many border patrol agents. That's why Trump shouldn't necessarily defer to what border patrol agents say they want. (They want jobs!) https://t.co/A3XZDCfakx

Although the 30ft tall see-thru fence in Calexico is not unimpressive — and it's already "deployed," right? So even under the omnibus Trump can build that kind of barrier (for a few miles), no? https://t.co/J7ETDdlV9i

Morris claims Trump can move Defense money around and build the wall as a "strategic national priority." But Trump's not behaving like someone who has pulled off a 3D chess coup. https://t.co/lQSGGpFg0l

Trump's legislative strategists and his OMB seemingly got *nothing* for his wall out of $1.3 Trilllion. Goose eggs. Shutout. Epic fail. Why haven't @MarcShort45–and @MickMulvaneyOMB, for that matter–been fired?// "News media declare Trump's wall dead" https://t.co/1U6Myn8fuR

"Fifty-five percent of working-class whites think we should build a wall along our border with Mexico, while 61 percent of whites with BAs or more think we should not." There are more of former group than the latter, according to @Edsall … https://t.co/g9cRuIBZRO

If they won't do a wall, how about a pause? I wonder how far a candidate pushing an immigration breather (pause, moratorium, whatever) would get? Endorsed by Coulter and now Galston! https://t.co/qWqFRa5guX

"There’s nothing illiberal about the view that too many immigrants stress a country’s capacity to absorb them, so that a reduction or even a pause may be in order. No issue has done more than immigration to feed populism," https://t.co/6AKnlMuD4A via @Edsall

THAT'S ALL IT TAKES? "George David Banks had to leave his National Economic Council post after he did not get clearance because of past marijuana use." Don't quite believe it–but it would help explain why Trump has trouble filling slots. https://t.co/UY1ObgMT6h

Trump doesn't need $25B *this year* for his wall. Right now he has $0. A few hundred million would let him start, no? This piece suggests to me that using military $ to start building the wall isn't as farfetched, legally, as people think. https://t.co/k1bIgzCKQY
