@lxeagle17 Trump is absolutely a party elite, I just think this is an example of mixed motives — he’s not *trying* to promote electable candidates, he’s trying to promote people who are personally loyal to him which is negatively correlated with being an experienced competent politician. — PolitiTweet.org

Getting married makes people happier, divorce or spousal death makes them sad. But it looks like on net it’s better to have loved and lost. https://t.co/1crdJex9Us https://t.co/rQo8XEdZFR — PolitiTweet.org

Important counterexample was the Democrats in 2016 who backed themselves into a binary Clinton/Sanders choice when they could have had any number of non-socialists who didn’t vote for the Iraq War. https://t.co/TlHUkCig7G — PolitiTweet.org

To Hall’s point, the supply of state legislative candidates matters not just for state government but because state legislature is the entry rung for a lot of other political offices so it drives the whole system. — PolitiTweet.org

Politician labor supply is an underrated topic. Europe seems poorly served by a situation where Brussels jobs are considered lower-prestige than being in national government even though so many critical issues have migrated to the EU level. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
I found Andrew Hall’s book arguing that the low objective job quality of being a state legislator is an important driver of polarization (only fanatics want to run and marginal members don’t really mind losing) to be persuasive. https://t.co/ieUSkQrtgB — PolitiTweet.org

Of course in contrast to Nordic empirical findings suggesting that politicians are smart and competent, Italian economists have a theoretical model saying politicians should be below average in competence & honesty. https://t.co/EpnorFSbBJ — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Similar result from an earlier study of Swedish politicians which found they are smarter than the average person and this holds when controlling for parental socioeconomic status. Would be interesting to see this looked at for more countries. https://t.co/fnnmwbpLel — PolitiTweet.org

It was smart of Democrats to put a moderate, super-popular bill on the floor that got a bunch of GOP votes while exposing the extremism of the majority of the party. More legislation like this. https://t.co/uhjYcvgFFp — PolitiTweet.org

People have been asking me if there are good funds to contribute to for legal defense of health care providers who get into trouble with anti-abortion prosecutors and I don’t have the answer — but if you do let me know and I will spread the word. — PolitiTweet.org

Putting them all on record about this is smart — their hostility to marriage equality is so politically toxic that they’re being weird about it, but they also can’t bring themselves to just vote for the bill. — PolitiTweet.org
