The US has tried the experiment of a president who gets all his information and ideas by watching cable TV. It didn't work out so well. https://t.co/MO3xNaznl5 — PolitiTweet.org

The pressure on the US southern border is intensified by the economic collapse of the socialist Venezuelan state. Millions of Venezuelans have emigrated to Colombia. Some have kept moving to the US, where jobs are beckoning. DeSantis must know all this https://t.co/MO3xNaznl5 — PolitiTweet.org

But you know what's not to blame? Sinister globalist elites plotting against Real America (TM) in their pricey vacation enclaves. DeSantis aspires to be a real working president, unlike Trump. He ought not base his ideas about the world on dumb hate memes. https://t.co/MO3xNaznl5 — PolitiTweet.org

The US job market is sending a giant screaming notice to the rest of the planet: if you can get yourself here by fair means or foul - there's work for you. People respond to signals. They game the asylum system, as you would in their place. Don't like the result? Change the rules — PolitiTweet.org

10,000 baby boomers turn 65 every day. Childcare systems still have not returned to pre-pandemic normal. Result: 3.4 million eligible workers remain outside the workforce. For workers *in* the workforce, there are two job openings for every one of the (few) currently unemployed — PolitiTweet.org

David Frum @davidfrum

The US border is being overwhelmed for two main reasons: flaws in the US asylum system and the ultra-hot US job market, literally two openings for every one available US worker. The DeSantis airlift assumes the border problem is a *plot* by disloyal elites https://t.co/MO3xNaznl5 — PolitiTweet.org
