If the President doesn't reopen the government first, and then enter into negotiations over immigration and the border, he hasn't actually made any concessions. He will have just changed the details of his demands, again, for at least the third time in the last few weeks.
2/Every commentator today will need to get very granular about what the border package is the President is proposing, and whether it addresses any of the actual challenges we face at the border today. Data, evidence, reality has to become part of this debate at some point.
3/In a thread I posted this am, reviewed how disconnected from reality the President's call for more wall is. They have never supplied data or evidence for why more wall is needed. Never.
4/There is no border crisis; there is no plan for why more wall is needed; he promised we would pay for the wall; offering BRIDGE Act/TPS is a f-ing joke and like a middle finger to Dems not a real offer; Trump is still living in Foxlandia not Washington.
5/After all this time he has spent talking about the border he doesn't even know that San Antonio is hundreds of miles from the border and has no wall. Jawdropping stupidity from the President.
