A newspaper owned by Rupert Murdoch delivered a sharp warning to President Donald Trump after a high-profile Republican loss.

In a new editorial, The Wall Street Journal warned Trump that a hardline immigration strategy promoted by top aide Stephen Miller is fueling voter backlash.

It comes after a Trump-endorsed candidate for the Texas state senate lost to a Democrat over the weekend.

    It was bad and everywhere.

    Like, right now America is like 20-35% Maga, after 9/11 it was literally 99% of Americans that were cool with anything Dick Cheney wanted. Absolutely zero accountability and a blank check against any citizen who wasn’t fully behind the government.

    Hell, I wore a “bad cop, no doughnut” shirt to highschool the year after 9/11, and got sent home for being unpatriotic. Even though no one could explain how that wasn’t patriotic or why it would be an issue even if it was.

    We were invading countries left and right and killing an insane amount of civilians in other countries.

    The reason trump seems much worse right now, is because he doesn’t have that level of support. That’s why he’s trying so hard to convince people we’re under attack. He wants a 9/11 or 10/7 sort of event so he can get that 9/11 level of support. Then shit is gonna get real fucking bad.
