I think that #FamilySeparation may open a window for Trump voters to talk to each other about their disappointment. We all need to encourage that conversation in a real way. The root causes are real. Addressing it with sincerity is what people are looking for.

The @StateDept historians do amazing and critical work literally writing the official foreign policy history of the US. I learned something every time we met...which was often.
You can follow them on twitter: @HistoryAtState

(When they aren't furloughed)
It's also worth noting how often Secretaries relied on them...sending queries about tactics on negotiations, outcomes, etc.

If the US govt were a Trump enterprise, he would quietly dump it, get someone to clean it up, and move on to Trump steaks, or ties or whatever.

He can't run away from the #shutdown and he has no one around him who knows how to solve it and save face.
oh just thought of one: he could resign
I hope someone in the WH reads this because it's a great idea. Trump gets to pull a Costanza and leave on a high note (ie, Washington is soooo broken...) and start a Wall Building Company and the rest of the world wins.

THREAD: It occurs to me that while Trump retains high approval ratings among R's, his policies are much LESS popular. I think in terms of messaging, it makes sense to focus on policies, not Trump. Let's talk:
#FamilySeparation
#TradeWar
#Medicare
#SocialSecurity
#GOPTaxScam
As long as issues get easily interpreted through party heuristic, trump keeps winning. Take it out of the partisan lens- let's talk about how
#TradeWar will hurt your business/job/home expenses.
#separatingfamilies offends your values
#Medicare helps you/your parents /2
Let's talk about how:
#SocialSecurity is your retirement plan that YOU PAID for
#GOPTaxScam gave money to the rich & at best put less than $20 in your paycheck
Yes- the election is a referendum on trump- but it should be about his POLICIES b/c those are the true horror. /3

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full
