1/ I’m happy that @charlescwcooke read my article in @TheAtlantic on Senate reform, but his title shows that he didn’t read it very closely. Unlike Rep. Dingell and others, I don’t call for Senate abolition but only a comparatively modest reapportionment.

I use the word “arguably” to set up an argument, that’s all. And Cooke does little to engage with the substance. Maybe that’s why he got his title wrong.
