Notably *Mitt Romney* responded to the 2016 election not by throwing his anti-Trump stances out of the window, but by returning to his own more moderate roots and embracing some thoughtful policy ideas — more people should try this! https://t.co/gMo03Ge4jI https://t.co/ZcEGdplJ0M — PolitiTweet.org

Trump improved on that platform by backing off the cuts to Social Security and Medicare and lying and pretending he would also avoid cuts to Medicaid. This option "become more popular by moderating on key issues" was available to non-scumbags, they just failed to embrace it. — PolitiTweet.org

Conservatives like the idea that Trump won because he's a scumbag rather than despite it, because it lets them keep the dream alive that they can run "Trumpy" weirdoes while still privatizing Social Security. https://t.co/gMo03Ge4jI https://t.co/WJyPYKexT6 — PolitiTweet.org
