An optimistic take on the supply chain snarl, based largely on the argument that the pandemic surge in demand for goods is cooling off 1/ https://t.co/63NwXYDfKI — PolitiTweet.org

So Mitch McConnell is perfectly willing to blow up the economy if he thinks voters will blame Biden, but got cold feet over being so obviously sociopathic that voters might catch on. Am I supposed to feel optimistic? — PolitiTweet.org

And the pandemic homicide wave in NYC — which still left the city far safer than it was 2 or 3 decades ago — appears to be receding. https://t.co/YYyhs0UqVU — PolitiTweet.org

To be clear: Fox News isn't stupid. It thinks its viewers are stupid — that they won't notice that Trump was president in 2020, that they'll blame Biden for bad things that happened *before he took office* And Fox News is probably right — PolitiTweet.org

But what if all else does fail? Then the impossible becomes necessary. So I wouldn't make too much of denials that exotic answers are possible. That's what they have to say! 5/ — PolitiTweet.org

The thing is, all of these strategies depend on having people properly scared of default. So it's very much in the administration's interest to deny that there are any backup plans — that it can, if all else fails, break glass and extract the coin 4/ — PolitiTweet.org

Nonetheless, the Biden admin would like to avoid using a gimmicky solution. First best is to shame Rs (and get business pressure to back up the shame) into acting responsibly. 2/ — PolitiTweet.org

Some idle speculation on platinum coins, 14th amendment, and all that. First of all, using any of these gimmicks would send the signal that we're a troubled country — but of course we are a troubled country, so that's not a deal-killer 1/ — PolitiTweet.org

Yet major news orgs are telling their audiences the opposite. Why? Do they think the true story is too complicated to explain? Is it reflexive Biden-bashing? We can't all be immersed in politics Twitter, and those who aren't deserve better 3/ — PolitiTweet.org

By refusing to vote for a narrow bill without assurances that conservatives won't walk away from the broader agenda, progressives are working with Biden; and delays in the hard infrastructure bill represent a tactical victory, not a strategic defeat, for the administration 2/ — PolitiTweet.org
