Except that once Dems say "yes" it's @RealDonaldTrump & GOPs in the box, no? (Gets to sign weak deal & lose his base…) https://t.co/EUWShBKVq0

The asylum "loophole"-closing parts of Trump's border deal are much bigger deal/sticking point than coverage they've gotten so far suggests. https://t.co/veztwvoQaw Admin. really wants out from under Clinton-era "Flores" settlement.

In fact, for Dems the logic of saying "yes" to Trump & cutting a deal seems overwhelming — like logic of caving on wall (which Schumer did). See this @edsall piece https://t.co/hmt1VkSlAv e.g. Borosage quote https://t.co/yEKTUrqKPz

But it doesn't help them if they talk 'DACA' for the next nine months. So they might wise up and say "yes" to too-weak Grassley/Cotton/Trump deal. https://t.co/Z3q3WXRoIE

"There is simply no way any legislative amnesty can be limited in nature until something is done about the courts." Reining in crazed lower courts is SCOTUS' job, no? https://t.co/Rp7uk9MVE2

This is the biggest problem with Trump's proposed DACA deal: Trades a big, immediate amnesty for "chain" migration cuts in 5-20 years (if ever). https://t.co/l4hFpWICPW

Pretty clear many biz-establishment Republican supporters of Trump's framework don't *ever* want immig. totals to decline. When chain migration runs out in 5-15 years they will push for more skills-based & guest workers. The potential reduction's boob-bait https://t.co/AD3hB28oGE

.@NPR tells us that, of >8,000 illegal, unaccompanied alien children (UACs) resettled on Long Island, "less than 1 percent … are part of MS-13." If you find that reassuring, you are not me. https://t.co/7VMqzry5AE

Wages "gradually firming" … OK! But they don't seem to be actually rising. Taking a while! Solution is not a big Trump Amnesty (followed by new surge of illegal workers coming across border) https://t.co/mpwN2iFNnI
