2/ Democratic administration. Harris was incredibly weak on economic policy. Warren sliced & diced Harris in debates on economic issues. I still don't see her as a presidential candidate. Her speech delivery is boring. She looks wooden. And except for the law, has no policy

3/ expertise. She checks demographic boxes but has little to offer voters. The party base is looking for fighters & brawlers with vision--people like Warren & Sanders. We don't need civility or charm. We need party leaders who are willing to engage in brass knuckles fights with

@MarkLeibovich

Larry Hogan offers himself as a potential island for what he calls “the exhausted majority of voters” of both parties, @MarkLeibovich reports. But is he just living in a shining city on a hill of wishful thinking? theatlantic.com/politics/archi… The problem for Hogan and Never Trump GOP

2/ twofold. One, Trump strongly influences the GOP base and the GOP base looks to Trump for political guidance. Two, why does anyone believe that a Reaganite GOP has any answers to 21st century questions on climate change, civil rights for minorities, and reproductive rights for

3/ women? Is this new-and-improved GOP going to give us more deregulation? More market solutions? The GOP is intellectually dead. In Reagan's day, plenty of bright folks at the Hoover Institution were turning out policies for Reagan. Now, the GOP depends on the dregs at the

2/ not. I have been collecting and analyzing hundreds of public opinion polls on immigration. What she is talking about, in a great simplified 140 characters, are what even Democratic strategists know is the Democratic Party's strategy: while not open borders, it is giving 11

3/ million undocumented aliens a path to citizenship, which eventually gives them the right to vote. Democratic strategists call that the changing composition of the electorate. That is entirely different from the Great Replacement theory which assumes that massive immigration

2/ escalation on his part is doomed. He does not have nuclear dominance. His army is being put through a meat grinder. If they tangled with NATO, they would be pureed. His air force is no match for NATO and forget his navy against the Sixth Fleet. Our goal should be to crush

3/ Putin's nuts in a vice in Ukraine. Drive his forces out of Ukraine. Allow Ukraine to crush the separatists in Moldova. And then NATO/EU put the screws to Belarus. NATO/EU also has to fix the Hungary problem. That can be solved by withholding cash from Orban. Anyone wanting or

It’s time to reboot America, former U.S. representative Will Hurd says washingtonpost.com/magazine/2022/… With all due respect to Will Hurd, he's a rodeo clown. What I mean is this: he's a one-man band in the GOP. If by some miracle he became president, where would he find the 4,000+

2/ political appointees? They'd be in Heritage Foundation binders. Where would he find federal judges. They'd be in Federalist Society binders. The GOP is rotten from the attic to the basement. The grifters, charlatans, theocrats, authoritarians, fascists, QAnoners occupy all the

3/ all the floors. The inmates run the asylum. The "sane" GOPers--Romney, Murkowski, Smith--are phonies through and through. When it actually comes doing something, they run and hide. The GOP has now been transformed--as Paul Weyrich, William Lind, Howard Phillips--intended it to

2/ be to have Ukraine destroy the Russian military inside Ukraine. What should be left are blasted hulks and body bags going back to Russia. They should be carting their dead to Russia in donkey-drawn carts. They should be crushed. We don't have to announce that. We just have to

3/ give Ukraine every weapon system, every bit of intelligence, everything they need to kick the shit out of the Russian army in Ukraine and Russian navy in the Black Sea. Friedman and others will counsel caution because Putin is unpredictable. But we should let Putin with no
