@ArmandDoma (a) They aren’t! You just don’t think about the journalists who don’t tweet heavily because *you* are on here all the time. (b) Twitter is a good tool for getting ideas, for floating notions, and for self-expression it’s just not a good driver of traffic. — PolitiTweet.org

Legislatively a 3-seat majority doesn’t seem like a huge deal one way or the other, but in terms of exactly how many hearings we get about Hunter Biden the stakes could not be higher. — PolitiTweet.org

Serious take is that Trump and his brand of election denialists are bad in a unique way. Other Republicans are also bad to the point that many of them are actually worse on some key issues, but there’s still a qualitative difference around fundamental democratic commitments. — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter is a pretty important (though diminishing) acquisition funnel for Substack subscriptions though so you’d better sign up now. https://t.co/ZjHPTIscdb — PolitiTweet.org

I know a lot of heavy Twitter users who don’t work in the media share the misperception that Twitter is an important source of web traffic, but it’s surprising you’d actually buy the company without checking and learning this is wrong. — PolitiTweet.org

@wesyang I don’t think that’s necessarily true — Giuliani advanced the cause of low taxes in NYC by first advocating for better public safety and then delivering it. Identifying and addressing real problems is a good idea whatever your main interests. — PolitiTweet.org

Labov wrote a book about this after the 2012 election — then the regions he wrote about swung right in 2016 but that only makes his points about the linguistic/cultural distinctiveness of this area more important. We underrate it because it’s not a legible bloc to most people. https://t.co/jFY3Ym2qtI — PolitiTweet.org

@wesyang I think that’s good — it’s politics, people want to win, and the motive to win often leads them to address real problem. Democracy is a good idea. — PolitiTweet.org

Note that the “autopsy” on any bad election for the GOP is always we should moderate on immigration! we should embrace trumpian populism! we should embrace criminal justice reform!we should blame trump! we should blame abortion! we should be tough on crime! Never rethink taxes. — PolitiTweet.org

My take on the conservative movement is not remotely cynical — I think the most idealistic, most achingly sincere people on earth sincerely believe they are serving humanity by running a series of scams designed to keep taxes on capital low to promote economic growth. — PolitiTweet.org

Other stuff in the mix too but that core claim — midterms are *not* a referendum on the incumbent president — is pretty counterintuitive and seems pretty vindicated to me. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
What we saw in 2022 was a stranger corner case — even a fairly unpopular president can avoid backlash if his opponents score controversial policy wins (Dobbs) and are clearly threatening alarming changes (election denialism). — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
The main implication they draw from the paper is that even a popular president could face significant midterm backlash — if he is seen as advancing controversial policy change on multiple fronts, many voters will still opt for a check. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
The paper of the midterms is Bafumi, Erickson, and Wleizen (2009) which shows that contrary to what you might think the predictable backlash against the president’s party in the midterms cannot be explained as a function of the president’s popularity. https://t.co/oQOctFNeSK https://t.co/24wAo9txk2 — PolitiTweet.org
