Bureaucracy 101: Euro car safety tester NCAP has gone from insuring cars are sturdy, with air bags etc to *requiring* all sorts of marginal gizmos like lane alerts and over-the-air safety updates. We don’t have it that bad (we seem to be going straight to autonomous driving) https://t.co/lOPQtrFdos

This is, bizarrely, a point I haven’t see Trump making. (Would look like he’s blaming Biden, which he would be doing, but if the problem is prices and not inflation it seems fair to blame Biden. And more effective than Trump’s grab-bag of incremental “affordability” measures). https://t.co/uKn0C4U39j

Those tactics worked for the anti-war protesters during Vietnam. Just saying. Voters thought ‘we want the chaos to end’and getting out of Vietnam was one way to end it. ICE should want things to calm down, to the extent possible without interfering with their job. https://t.co/oJ4bTkm7o0
