@titonka @SonnyBunch Nobody saw "The Land of Steady Habits" but that was a good portrayal of a guy who *could* have a normal, boring life choosing dissolution instead bc he'd rather have instant pleasure. — PolitiTweet.org

@SonnyBunch @titonka Not "happy," I guess, but the Ram would give himself a final fatal heart attack then try to make life work as a working class schlub. — PolitiTweet.org

David Weigel @daveweigel

@SonnyBunch @titonka Yeah, both Charlie and Randy "the Ram" get told, by doctors, that they will die soon if they make the wrong choices, and then we see them deciding that they'd rather die than change/sacrifice what makes them happy. — PolitiTweet.org

"Build the wall" strikes me as the biggest Trump idea that the Cathedral/Regime etc said was crazy but is now 100% mainstream inside one of the major parties. He won that, which makes it harder to differentiate himself from younger non-loser Rs. — PolitiTweet.org

David Weigel @daveweigel

@titonka @SonnyBunch I found Charlie to be both pathetic and sympathetic. He works constantly, he saves his money for his estranged daughter, he's smart and well-read. He's also ruined his body and it's sad to watch. — PolitiTweet.org

David Weigel @daveweigel

Trump 2015 had never won an election and was offering radically different stuff than the rest of the field. Trump 2022 left office with Ds running everything + backed a bunch of losers in midterms, and other Rs endorse his boldest ideas - build the wall, take on China, etc. — PolitiTweet.org

David Weigel @daveweigel

@titonka @SonnyBunch Difference for me between "obese" (that's Jonah Hill in a bunch of movies) and the stage Charlie is in. I didn't see it as any different than a movie about someone killing himself with heroin. — PolitiTweet.org

David Weigel @daveweigel

@SonnyBunch @titonka My only in-movie complaint with this stuff is that the gawking at Charlie is a little silly. Like there's a scene where students on his Zoom see him and they... take out their phones to photograph the screen? Wouldn't they just screenshot it? — PolitiTweet.org

David Weigel @daveweigel

One of Nate's points in his (disowned) argument about ignoring Trump's 2015 poll lead was that he didn't have much room to grow among the 65-70% of Rs who didn't support him. Now 90%+ have voted for him - they really are shopping around. https://t.co/OLWBQrEDwa — PolitiTweet.org

Still true, still crazy - Trump has fewer legislator endorsements at this point in his 2024 campaign than Cory Booker did at this point in his 2020 campaign. https://t.co/8HmonIu07M — PolitiTweet.org
