David Cole for Taki's Mag on whether Donald Trump regrets taking
Jared Kushner's advice to downplay the National Question on the campaign
trail against Joe Biden and Kamala Harris: <URL:

| In fact, it was really quite a miracle that Trump prevailed in 2016.
| On paper, there was everything wrong with him as a candidate. And
| the GOP establishment, which of course never expected him to win,
| was hit with the bone-shattering realization that the issue of
| immigration restriction is so popular in vast swaths of the country,
| it could even carry a man like Trump to the White House.
|
| This is a problem because Con Inc. loves unfettered immigration. So
| it's vital that immigration not take center stage again (another way
| in which the MAGA personality cult inadvertently assists the
| Republican establishment: keep the attention on the man, not the
| 2016 message).
Cole ran out of column inches to identify pro-choice presidential
aspirants of the left or right who could outflank Trump on the National Question.
