Ships passing in the night: anti-Trump conservatives saying "Oh no, don't impeach, the public doesn't want it" and polls showing rapid move in public opinion toward impeachment https://t.co/3xAF2ePWjE — PolitiTweet.org

I'm old enough to remember maybe 48 hours ago when all the savvy people were saying that by raising the possibility of impeachment Dems were playing right into Trump's hands https://t.co/r5TW95IccW — PolitiTweet.org

Proposed hed for an article about Republicans following Trump into the abyss: "Quid Pro Quo Vadis?" Except nobody would have any idea what I'm talking about. — PolitiTweet.org

Maybe worth pointing out that Warren's wealth tax kicks in at $50 million. Sorry, but people with that much money can afford anything any sane human being would want. For them, wealth is about keeping score. For that, they'd betray democracy? — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Krugman @paulkrugman

This sort of confirms Warren's whole worldview, doesn't? Big Finance, given the choice between treason and a wealth tax, chooses treason https://t.co/hcnGcpY4vq — PolitiTweet.org

The only thing I can think is that Trump didn't realize how that call summary would play; he just imagined that everyone expects American presidents to sound like Vito Corleone. And once that was out of the bag, the coverup was shot 2/ — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Krugman @paulkrugman

This is the question I — with no expertise — have been asking. This administration has stonewalled so many scandals. When Adam Schiff went public about the whistleblower's complaint, I just assumed that none of the facts would ever see the light of day 1/ — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Krugman @paulkrugman

The thing is, we already had a smoking gun. This call summary is a smoking AR-15. And the stuff they're still hiding must be a smoking howitzer, or something. — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Krugman @paulkrugman

And this is the expurgated, sanitized summary. God knows what was left out, let alone the rest of the whistleblower complaint. How does Trump NOT get impeached at this point? — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Krugman @paulkrugman

That's just how Trump and company operate. And as a result, anything short of complete disclosure is a de facto admission that the truth is even worse than we know — and should be reported as such 3/ — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Krugman @paulkrugman

The question is how much worse it really is. And here's what we know from the Barr/Mueller story: nothing short of full disclosure of the whistleblower complaint will have any credibility. We already know that any partial release of information will be distorted and dishonest 2/ — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Krugman @paulkrugman

I'm seeing various headlines to the effect that it remains to be seen whether Trump did something impeachable. But he has *already admitted* asking a foreign government to produce dirt on a domestic rival. We already have the smoking gun 1/ — PolitiTweet.org

Deep thought: while I understand why there’s some sniping at people who were late to the impeachment process, at this point it’s self-indulgent. Right now the priority is saving America, not who gets credit — PolitiTweet.org

So as I understand it, the emerging GOP position is that we shouldn't investigate Trump's efforts to rig next year's election because hey, there's an election next year. — PolitiTweet.org

All publicity is good publicity, I guess. It's actually kind of flattering to learn that I'm such an icon of all that's evil https://t.co/gUrPyqew07 — PolitiTweet.org

It’s time to call Republican superpatriotism what it was long before Trump appeared on the scene: a fraud. https://t.co/jEeGw8TP6T — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Krugman @paulkrugman

Presidenting is hard when you have zero credibility. Trump can't make trade deals, or deal in general, because nobody trusts him to honor his side of any bargain https://t.co/YjL8Yv65I4 — PolitiTweet.org

Someone I know was booked to fly Thomas Cook to England this week — but had the presence of mind to cancel and book with another airline. This is an amazing story — sort of an airborne Fyre Festival, with a storied old company at its core https://t.co/DWpYl6FKxl — PolitiTweet.org

This is a very good history of the reasons CA can set tougher air regulations than the feds. Also noteworthy that the scientist who first linked smog to cars was attacked and smeared by the auto industry. The more things change ... https://t.co/9qznKZboDQ — PolitiTweet.org
