@robertwrighter I guess I don't understand the view I see expressed in these tweets and op-eds that the major western leaders are unaware of this or are spurning realistic chances for peace over a fanatical desire to reconquer Crimea. Russia is on the offensive! — PolitiTweet.org

If you do things that work, you'll win and people will end up being happy with the results. If you flounder and become unpopular, then the people you invested in appeasing will eat you for lunch. — PolitiTweet.org

Don't *say* the groups are out of touch and irrelevant (again, I can do that) — act like you believe it and staff the administration with people who've assimilated that idea. — PolitiTweet.org

Democrats gave in to activist pressure to abandon winning slogans like "safe, legal, and rare" or "I'm personally opposed to abortion, but believe it should be legal." That was a mistake. There's no good reason to punch left (leave that to me), but just ignore these people. — PolitiTweet.org

It's true that the composition of the electorate changes from year to year, but sporadic voters are more moderate than consistent voters so there's no tradeoff in terms of persuasion or mobilization. https://t.co/4v4r5abPBW — PolitiTweet.org

Presidentialism is a bad institutional design, but also a bad mindset. It was wise of Johnson's Tory colleagues to reject this line of thinking. — PolitiTweet.org

What is the peace deal that Ukraine is supposedly rejecting because the Biden administration hasn't listened enough to Quincy Institute scolding? — PolitiTweet.org

@theGreaterMarin Yes, it's very annoying — PolitiTweet.org

Black people prioritize climate action more than white ones (because they are Democrats) but among Black voters, climate takes a back seat to health care, education, crime, and poverty along with the jobs/economy classics and addressing racism and criminal justice reform. https://t.co/XPpEbYhpki — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Something you see pretty consistently is that even as the public favors action on climate change, it's a pretty low priority. Even among Democrats "reducing health care costs" and "improving education" rate higher. https://t.co/sb0RH3g2xv — PolitiTweet.org

@rev_avocado I agree. See next tweet. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Instead of talking shit, though, the administration should get behind a strategy of advancing multiple bills — from the expansive to the very narrow — to protect abortion rights and highlight GOP extremism rather than sticking with the “WHPA or bust” approach. — PolitiTweet.org

The Bedingfield quote everyone is mad at is a bit off in the moment but it’s true that Campaign Biden benefitted (both in the primaries and the general) from having some clear daylight between himself and the groups, and governing Biden would benefit from regaining that. — PolitiTweet.org

In a sane world Republicans would be bragging constantly about Operation Warp Speed and pressing Biden to show more urgency on next generation vaccine development. Instead Trump & McConnell seem embarrassed to pro-vax and the rest of the party is worse. https://t.co/YJDtA6kuKq — PolitiTweet.org

At the end of the day, there’s just no “one weird trick to protect abortion rights” now that Roe is gone. We need to beat the people who want to make abortion illegal in elections, and advance legislation that sets national floors and highlight’s the other side’s extremism. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
The problem is, obviously, we don’t want a situation where the next GOP administration phones up the FDA and orders them to yank abortion medications from the market. Unlike with boosters this is an iterated game and fussy proceduralisn protects abortion rights on balance. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
This very same ed board was really mad when the White House pushed the FDA on boosters. But Biden had that right and the FDA was wrong. I’m less sure it’ll work well on abortion. https://t.co/dVle1XrxWn — PolitiTweet.org
