Can't say Trump doesn't provide an unprecedented, painfully digressive, unfiltered, undisciplined, view into what he's currently thinking. Transparency! Not sure how much of it I can take. https://t.co/mnjk8eBVYH

Second thoughts from @Saletan. Me: Immediate context was equal justice. But thrust of rambling stream-of-consciousness riff was the *everythings'* coming up great, not just jobs numbers. Could have been referring to "opportunity zones"! https://t.co/uHUh78bIdJ

"The snowflakes turn to ice" https://t.co/yL2f8gkNaQ 60s college radicals thought *they* would carry their values into the adult workplace, but that mostly didn't happen. Why is it different this time?

The Century City anti-war demonstration I mention seems to have been in 1967, not 1964. https://t.co/61C80qRuRF The lot from which the demonstrators were forcibly dispersed by police is now the Creative Artists Agency (CAA) building. https://t.co/TXYSi7H2KV

If your piece on Joe Biden's "new" strategy gives about 5 different answers to the question of what the strategy is, does that convince you he actually has a new strategy or that he's floundering almost as much as Trump is? https://t.co/QvFgUX0FVx

I would say the Bob makes the fear that invoking the Insurrection Act somehow opens a path for Trump Authoritarianism a bit more plausible than I'd previously thought (which was plausibility=0). But it's still crazy. You make the call! https://t.co/TXYSi7H2KV

WHO'S PITCHING? Weird because in @RichLowry's piece it says Cotton and his team "decided to pitch an op-ed to the New York Times." https://t.co/LvMhSbijEv https://t.co/MhX64DZsKO

If you were the Deep State and could push a button to send out the signal to ex-officials and presidents to "Turn on Trump Now!," you would not push it this week. Way too early, no?

If Weiss mischaracterized the internal NYT debate (I am open to the possibility) let's see the transcript of the meeting, the way we (somehow) saw a transcript of the famous Pinch/Raines "moose" meeting. Will be interesting. (Or did it all happen on Slack?) https://t.co/J8DyD4QufW
