Fascinating. “Mexico’s not sending their best” (June 2015) always struck me as him seeing weaponized migration. Maybe the concept is not so new to him?

I tried to keep that in mind when I wrote it (and note I mentioned it in the post). I think this is different in the sophistication of the zinger and the recognition of the threat it actually does pose to Europe.

No disagreement with you there. Bannon loves talking about this kind of “Camp of the Saints” stuff... As you say, though, not with this level of sophistication.

I wish I had a better map of how Trump parrots the last viewpoint heard, even while he may strongly believe the same. Bc I do think it's an important measure of who he's been talking to.
