I will update this thread with any prominent Republican that condemns Trump (by name). Let me know if you see anything. — PolitiTweet.org

The Republican Jewish Coalition released a statement that DOES NOT NAME TRUMP. Incredible. — PolitiTweet.org

Is the Republican Party ready to move on from Trump? Well, Trump just invited a holocaust denier and white nationalist to dinner and Republican leaders have said NOTHING — PolitiTweet.org

One trait that Musk and Trump have in common is they are both outrageous susceptible to flattery. It doesn’t matter how abhorrent you are. If you flatter them, you are a good person. — PolitiTweet.org

It's very hard for Republicans to make a substantive case against Trump after spending the last 6 years flattering him and excusing his misconduct — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans had an opportunity to rid themselves of Trump. He was impeached for fomenting an insurrection. But most Republicans in the Senate refused to convict him. Now he will be very tough to stop. — PolitiTweet.org

The other issue is that, in a crowded field, no one has the incentive to attack Trump. That was the problem in 2016. And by the time the other candidates realized their only chance was to attack Trump, it was too late. — PolitiTweet.org

Judd Legum @JuddLegum

The media narrative that Trump is diminished is way ahead of the political reality. Perhaps DeSantis can topple Trump. But it will not be easy. Trump's hyper-loyal base is especially valuable in a crowded field. — PolitiTweet.org

If you want to spend your time publishing fake arguments between yourself and an alter ego about an election forecast that you also created, that's fine But maybe don't denigrate people who are focusing their attention on other topics https://t.co/QQs8CjXvdZ — PolitiTweet.org

What about the category of reporters that spend their time trying to "forecast" elections? What is the value of that? Wouldn't it be better for most readers just to wait for the votes to be counted? Treating politics like a sporting event is 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩 — PolitiTweet.org

6. Earlier this month, a group of 58 progressive members of Congress wrote leadership and urged them not to extend full deduction of corporate R&D spending without also helping families. Kids don't have lobbyists. And don't make campaign contributions. https://t.co/muDzKzKTYC — PolitiTweet.org

4. There is little evidence that the R&D tax deduction meaningfully increases R&D spending or useful innovation. Rather, "[e]vidence suggests that a significant portion of increased R&D spending may be driven by reclassification of existing activity." https://t.co/muDzKztiA2 — PolitiTweet.org
