Lots of topics here I've been meaning to blog on.
key point from @jonathanalter below: people figure it out when others try to suppress their votes. they don’t like it and push back. it’s a big motivator https://t.co/7EYf8YfnLW

The culpability of the Hoover Institute for the current crisis.
Many people have probably heard about the Great Barrington Declaration, denouncing social distancing and calling for "herd immunity." It's popular with the White House, and it's the product of a Koch-linked think tank 1/ https://t.co/jHU62woRuc

Long time readers will know where these are going.
In Sep. 2016, I wrote my post, "Asymmetry between the major parties fries the circuits of the mainstream press." https://t.co/qhvtpWgtzC Today's "both sides see the other as the destroyer" piece published by the Washington Post is a circuits-fried work. https://t.co/HFIfDgyb8j

This piece is incredibly credulous about Trump's approach to the economy and in accepting the myth that, prior to Trump, the GOP embraced "sacred verities about government debt." https://t.co/2WRv6EUdCU

The bottom line is that even the institutionalists are coming to understand that an equilibrium in which one side does whatever they want, while the other side tries to abide by old rules is not a good equilibrium for the institution itself. https://t.co/8GLkjrL5aZ

I've been thinking a lot about the "surge ahead on election day and cut off the count strategy." Among other things, I've been thinking how stupid it was to telegraph that plan months in advance. If Trump plays Goldfinger in the remake, he'll tell Bond about his Fort Knox plan during the gin game.
indeed, not just Trump but kavanaugh too. Because the founders original intent was to end the counting process after network media desks say who won. https://t.co/J1waYHIEVh

The approach of quietly chipping away a reproductive rights on a state level has given moderate Republicans a lot of breathing room. That may be going away.

[Search for the "great unwinding."] In 2020 the GOP will still have to appease the cult members. Though unlikely, I would not rule out Don Jr. or Ivanka or even the return of Trump himself. Whoever gets it will find that holding onto the base while building a broad coalition will be... challenging.

We all need snow days (even if some of us have to drive to them).
Absolutely LOVE this from our school district superintendent.

Sure, we could do virtual classes on snow days now, but why would we take *another* thing away from the kids?
