Just three days between 'em :-D
Well, for one thing saying that the house "should" pass the bill, just to make a statement, is quite different than "pushing" for it, as the other tweet said he refrained from doing.
For another, I believe it was during those same three days that Cortez won (while advocating the abolishment of ICE) and then others started hopping on the "no borders, no nations" bandwagon. Once Trump saw that, he KNEW that an open immigration issue would benefit republicans greatly. He was of that opinion anyway, but that just intensified it.
