Under Lankford bill, migrant shows up at border, says he wants “protection,” MUST BE RELEASED w/ cell phone or ankle bracelet, in theory to show up for 2 adjudications in 6 months, which won’t be held in 6 months because that’s aspirational–more like years.

The first person who pointed out that Trump hadn’t said what people (including me) thought he’d said was @AnnCoulter. I thought she’d gotten it wrong, given Trump’s ability to say stupid things. But she was right. https://t.co/tTlWZF1G98

The only place I could find where someone was said it should be killed even if (or because) it solved the problem was an unnamed “commentator” paraphrased by Sen. Lankford. https://t.co/dEXUsaIMcj Not Trump, who’s always said it was a bad bill (which it is) as far as I know.

He said he wanted it to fail because it was a “bad bill” that wouldn’t solve the problem-but would make GOPs own the disaster. That would help Biden, but it’s different from saying it would help him because it’d solve the problem. I also thought he said the latter but he didn’t. https://t.co/BSEicWuFiA
