.@babs_klein: in another tweet, @johnastoehr pushes "open borders". Vox asked Bernie Sanders if he supported open borders & he replied: "No, that's a Koch brothers proposal". What about you? Are you a big Koch fan like John & @monthly? Or, are you a real liberal?

IOW, go full-on NeoLiberal (free trade, loose borders, globalism). Big Biz - esp Koch - would spend millions on them! MT @johnastoehr [a @monthly blogger] Lots of room, I think, for an enterprising Dem candidate for the senate to run on free markets &--wait for it--open borders!

.@accidentalflyer: or just run like a smart, sane, patriotic, genuine Trump. Show those like @Neil_Irwin who push anti-American NeoLiberal policies (loose borders/free trade/globalism, i.e., the Koch agenda) wrong. Destroy their careers before they do any more damage to the USA.

Who is the writer who you most disagree with who you've learned the most from? For me: Hugh Kenner and F.A. Hayek.

@johnastoehr Interesting choice. He's up there. Love Great War & Modern Memory but he was cranky as hell.

@johnastoehr The autobiography of Fussell's ex-wife has some relevant stuff on that.

@HeerJeet What's your disagreement with Hugh Kenner?

From @24aheaddotcom_
.@DavidDark: I have no idea who Hugh Kenner is, but who @HeerJeet disagrees with has no real bearing on anything. E.g., there are smart things he could have helped with that would have stopped or at least changed Trump. Instead, not one thing he's done has impacted Trump.

.@johnastoehr: hey John, there are simple, immediately obvious (to me) thinks @HeerJeet could have done or could do now to undercut Trump. Like challenge Trump proxies on how a future Congress will just neglect/tear down Trump's "wall". That'd really undercut him.
