So let me get this straight. Gov. Abbott of TX says he’ll defy federal law because an “invasion” has happened at the border, but the GOP refuses to fix the border because that would hand Biden a political win? Have I got that right?
@rbreich This IS their GOTV strategy. Whip up hysteria, pound the drum beat of stories re the border. All of Trump’s supporters talk about this bs issue.
@rbreich "Failure of social contract reciprocity", or "Heads, we win; tails, you lose." It's the main GOP trick. Of all people you, Sir, shouldn't be surprised.
@rbreich It all makes sense when you keep in mind that (a) it's all coordinated by the Trump campaign, led by a "man" with syphilitic dementia, and (b) Republicans don't actually have any interest in helping the country, only helping themselves.
@rbreich
The Founders were smart to give the Senate six-year terms. They are less sensitive to bi-ennial elections. Now, it seems #TFG is threatening senators with getting primaries.
@rbreich What would happen if Texas declared its own sovereignty? Who has violated their oath? Gov. Abbott and, upon rejoining, would possibly need to vacate his office? Who would protect their waters? Air traffic conntrol?
Trump told the #GOP NOT to fix the #border so that he could campaign on the chaos.
#Trump wants the #US damaged so that he can claim he is there to fix the damage.
Trump is like the firefighter who starts fires so that he can claim he's saving people when he puts them out. But Trump is so inept that he never actually puts out the fires that he's started. He just starts new ones to distract from the old ones.
And the fires he starts are burning the country down.
