    Long but worth a read-on the cyclicality of nativism, which once targeted the Irish, the Italian, the Jew and the Asian. Trumpism isn't new.

    Trump’s anti-immigration playbook was written 100 years ago. In Boston.

    I wonder if they realize that fierce opposition to DeVos is trying to save Republicans from themselves

    Currently watching a conservative, Trump-voting FB friend in Mississippi go off on Betsy DeVos. Because he teaches at a public school.

    And yet, Trump voter see these same sets of facts (when they see them at all) and think "this is great! It's going so well!"

    As individual mistakes, these would be no big deal. But the pattern signifies an entirely dysfunctional and reckless White House operation

    Trump acts as if we don't have any vetting now and "anyone" can come in. It's another lie.

    What is our country coming to when a judge can halt a Homeland Security travel ban and anyone, even with bad intentions, can come into U.S.?

    Nearly every Republican falls in line, from what I've seen, unless they're a federal judge.

    Who falls in line behind this lawless talk? Who repudiates it?
