No. Trump with Dem Senate would likely result in some kind of negotiation, with the distinct possibility of a Trump/Jared sellout (Trump would no longer have to worry about reelection; Senators would). https://t.co/HMuGyUJEUB

Or, shorter: If you don't want a mass amnesty (with amnesty after amnesty down the road), holding the GOP Senate while Biden wins isn't enough. You have to defeat Biden. Wish that weren't true. https://t.co/uMmIyqXwwD

This seems by far the most significant piece of the day: What it means is that If Biden's elected, we're getting a mass (ie 11 million) illegal immigrant amnesty even if there's a GOP Senate that won't vote for it. Biden (or Kamala) will do it by executive "parole in place." https://t.co/mggCnu2NKB

Girdusky named Taylor as an opponent of Trump's agenda over a year ago. Why did Trump keep people like him on? Still a bizarre, central failing of his Presidency. https://t.co/YE7rx7CFWZ

"[Trump] insisted on a near-total focus on issues that he said were central to his reelection — in particular building a wall on the U.S. border with Mexico …" You mean the issues he won election on? But that Taylor didn't like? https://t.co/pEjfSUuDM1

Do we know if anybody watched this thing? Seems like a key piece of information. If the answer is "not many," how will MSM avoid telling us? https://t.co/2ZIoPiYbIj

Acela segment also effective, in part because it seemed accurate. Biden's problem isn't that he's a snob!
