I was wrong to look for conspiracies and think Trump's sanctions decision was designed to undermine Nikki Haley. It was designed to undermine Michael Wolff. https://t.co/WL7MZElGCT

"Bipartisan praise" gets her what? A book contract? Maybe co-authored with Bob Corker. https://t.co/BDetkoQMMq

WHATABOUTISM GOES GLOBAL: Don't be such sissies, Swedes! So what if you now have "homicide rates above the West European average." Suck up those murders like we do in our most dangerous cities. It's just the price of globalism. Chicago will always be worse! https://t.co/fk2caL4sEi

Do you get the impression aides rush out to the press in an attempt to lock Trump into positions any idiot knows he's going to have 2d thoughts about? Here's Mulvaney jamming Trump on the [disastrous] omnibus https://t.co/4BLjTET2VT https://t.co/PPMY6AYw1a

In other words, as a guy just reading everyone's tweets, I'm thinking this might be a FY from Trump to Haley, Ayers, Pence in response to Lerner hire.

Hmm. Areas with lots of dynamic immigrants don't seem to have much of this "social capital" thing. But @RobertDPutnam tells me not to worry about it. https://t.co/P51PhaLVsc https://t.co/l30d7X4iRR
