      2. Make no mistake: Trump will scapegoat his supposed opponents (Courts, ACLU, Dems, media) for terrorism.

      3. Since Trump is building this narrative, his opponents need to have a counter-narrative handy: that he's hurting fight on terrorism

          1) basically agree, except w/ "major attack will be fre-able offense. This must never be true, if we are ever to end useless wars.

          We have had open door policy and there have been multiple terrorists attacks on American soil; open door policy has been a failure

          The Islamic terrorists attacks on American soil have not been 'alt facts'. Current policy of leaving door open has not worked.

          "very, very dishonest press" don't report on terrorism because "they have their reasons," says @POTUS. GOP cheers him on. #fascism

          @onlxn Increasing threat is a good counter. How about one party rule. Total lack of checks and balances.

          Also, intelligence/police powers still fall to the executive, no? "Prevention" isn't only measure. Intelligence mess is his too.
