Okay and then there was that weird "30 years" exchange and what on earth — PolitiTweet.org

I feel like those answers were all that Bernie and Warren practiced this week, and it showed — they were both really strong — PolitiTweet.org

Not only are these questions bad, but they're utterly failing at stoking meaningful debate between the candidates — PolitiTweet.org

Normally I'll defend Tom Steyer's tie, but it clashes horrifically with the light blue shirt — PolitiTweet.org

Blitzer to everyone but Warren: Why would you be a good commander in chief Blitzer to Warren: voters think you'd be a shitty leader of the military, what do you think about that hmm — PolitiTweet.org

Interesting, the standard Biden just set up for military intervention — "vital national interests of the United States" — rules out humanitarian interventions like the one his admin did in Libya — PolitiTweet.org

Doing this quiz reminds me that there are a lot of economic policy issues where my view is "it seems like there are multiple good policy options and I don't have a strong view as to which is preferable" https://t.co/n3FGmnOCQ3 — PolitiTweet.org

I'm not saying that UFOs are real. I'm just saying that the reporting on the subject sounds exactly like a conspiracy move where the aliens are definitely real https://t.co/QV5JoKCGVf — PolitiTweet.org

Added the phrase "liberal praxis" to a piece, largely as highly specific trolling, and am now praying my editors let me get away with it — PolitiTweet.org

@dhnexon @NoahCRothman @lindsaypcohn Absolutely. I feel comfortable in retrospect describing it as an act of war and an extremely risky one at that, but am not yet comfortable having a verdict on exactly what the consequences were — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
@NoahCRothman @lindsaypcohn ack, this should read "lethal violence." for some reason that word got left out. twitter, please add that edit button dammit — PolitiTweet.org

@DenisonBe Exactly the point I make later on :D — PolitiTweet.org

@NoahCRothman @lindsaypcohn 6. If there's a "textbook" example of anything here, it's the way in which neoconservatives speak about their ideas as being the obvious conclusions of anyone familiar with history when in reality there are few ideologies with *less* support on the relevant academic literature. — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
@NoahCRothman @lindsaypcohn 5. What is the evidence for this claim? That Iran's immediate response was not as aggressive as it could have been. But the fact that Iran didn't immediately respond with violence doesn't mean that there won't be a more dangerous response down the line https://t.co/g3nUGwCWcq — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
@NoahCRothman @lindsaypcohn 4. And yet, Noah seems to be arguing that such experts are apparently "ignorant" of the "basics" of international relations, that they haven't even read the "textbook" on the topics. https://t.co/MYL6UnPvUl — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
@NoahCRothman 3. In the piece Noah claims was wildly off-base, I quote several leading scholars with related expertise. This includes @lindsaypcohn explaining that "deterrence by escalation," which Noah says is "textbook," almost always fails https://t.co/reIk8YLSqP — PolitiTweet.org

Deterrence by escalation usually doesn’t work. It’s a classic form of underestimating the adversary. Iran can’t win… https://t.co/nvdv8OYgpz

@NoahCRothman 2. I'm pretty familiar with the academic literature on armed conflict — I have a graduate degree in the subject and have been covering it professionally for nearly a decade. I am not aware of any scholarship suggesting that assassinating a foreign general is "deescalatory." — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
1. I want to say a little bit about this @NoahCRothman piece, which accuses me and other journalists of missing the "textbook" deescalatory strategy behind Trump's killing of Qassem Soleimani. Mostly, I want to ask: which textbooks are you reading? https://t.co/YkN8n61gnw — PolitiTweet.org

This is a great piece even though I don't care even a little bit about the royals. It's just using them as a lens to illustrate how unbelievably terrible the UK tabloid press is https://t.co/kgAmWJzEXg — PolitiTweet.org
