.@OXIOXIForever: _grendan is writing a book about immigration. You may or may not know this, but the entire establishment strongly supports mass/illegal immigration: Big Biz, foundations, the media, politicians, etc. _grendan will side with them.
In other words, he'll be pushing the NeoLiberal/Koch/Big Biz/U.S. Chamber agenda to the far-left.
MT @_grendan very humbled and excited to share that I am working on a book about immigration, capitalism, and the far right for @haymarketbooks
.@nagler_rhonda: check out 'How the DNC Decided on "Dangerous Donald"' & its Vegalteno quotes. In retrospect, didn't what he suggested just help Trump?

.@RoundLike: UK politics aside, @JoeTwyman, @IsabelOakeshott, etc are just trying to grab their share of the Trump "ecosystem", just like developers build apps for the Apple ecosystem, etc. It's all about money, not about holding Trump accountable as real journalists would.
"Leaked secret cables from [UK] ambassador say [Trump] is ‘uniquely dysfunctional and his career could end in disgrace’ [he described] Trump as ‘inept’, ‘insecure’ and ‘incompetent’ in a series of explosive memos to Downing Street"

.@murdochdavis: have you seen the @ColbyItkowitz blog trying to get Trump on illegal aliens working at his clubs?

@PhilipKennicott & @neal_katyal either aren't smart enough to realize they help Trump, or they don't care. Which is it?
.@RVincentJr: NYT isn't really liberal: they're incredibly pro-Big Biz. Even if @JanHoffmanNYT raised cavils about healthcare for illegal aliens, I'll guess she didn't acknowledge it'd be another case of corporate socialism. Big Biz can give low wages & pass the real costs on.

It's not that #TheResistance realizes they only ever help Trump but can't stop it, it's that they don't even realize they've only ever helped Trump. They're like a single-cell organism.
Wasp(s) were coming around for days, looking for something. One started on a nest but I knocked it down. Its brain probably weighs a milligram, but it learned not to build a nest here.
