@Un_Gray @newrepublic I worry about two things: 1). An impeachment trial seriously complicating Biden's agenda in the Senate; 2). An impeachment trial putting Trump front and center when Biden should be asserting his credibility as president. It's not as if Trump otherwise would be leaving with honor. — PolitiTweet.org

@MichaelMcGough3 In a @newrepublic piece that I highlighted earlier today, I talked about how it is time for Democratic speechwriters to jettison both Sorensen and imitation Obama. — PolitiTweet.org

As tempting as it is, I hope that Biden does not quote Abraham Lincoln in his Inaugural Address. It's not Lincoln's or Biden's fault, but Lincoln quotes are so over-used by all sides that they lose their moral force. — PolitiTweet.org

Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
I want to share my thoughts about Biden's Inaugural Address, which is just 72 hours away. As a former White House speechwriter, I take rhetoric seriously. The piece was written for the print @newrepublic before January 6, but I think it still stands up. https://t.co/O2ML2SQDKL — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks for this. It brought tears to my eyes. But then I also cried watching “Field of Dreams.”🇧🇳 — PolitiTweet.org

@BGrueskin Ah, the good old days. They don't make White House chiefs of staff like that anymore. Meadows is worse. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
Haldeman was Pericles in comparison. From the WPost Op-Ed: "It was Meadows who enabled Trump’s science-denying alternative universe, letting ignorance rule the day and empowering quack scientists who helped corkscrew the nation’s [Covid] response." https://t.co/qFOq5DuyTt — PolitiTweet.org
Bill Grueskin @BGrueskin
@GlennKesslerWP Wow. Worse than Haldeman?

Prediction: The economy will soar as soon as Biden takes office. Reason: Trillions will be spent at crisis PR agencies as Trump's enablers seek professional help to doctor their reputations. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@ktumulty Not to worry. The emergency audit will only last 10 days. Cruz is also about to suggest that would have the time to serve as "temporary president" during that post-Trump 10-day window. — PolitiTweet.org

@Olivianuzzi @Bencjacobs @BenJacobs I think it's played on roller stakes rather than ice. But I need Wikipedia. — PolitiTweet.org

@Olivianuzzi @BenJacobs Truth is truth. It was a great lede. So what if I have a small conflict of interest in the friends department. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
A great lede from two of my favorite people @benjacobs and @Olivianuzzi: "Ted Cruz has long had a public reputation as an unctuous asshole." https://t.co/N5tPxdXCdz — PolitiTweet.org

@paulschwartzman Unbelievably moving. Unbelievably frightening. Made me realize that every member of Congress, particularly Democrats, were in serious danger of being killed. — PolitiTweet.org

@ASlavitt I write about politics for a living. I am hopeful that our better angels prevailed in the election -- and that the vaccine rollout is happening. — PolitiTweet.org

@jerry_orchard @newrepublic If Trump were convicted in the Senate. Which there is no guarantee will ever happen. The disqualification from office only kicks in if he is convicted, not just impeached. — PolitiTweet.org

@thegarance I fear these scars will last for years. Stay healthy. — PolitiTweet.org

@thegarance Maybe it's me. But after the horrors of April and May in New York, I am slightly relieved every time I realize that a siren is a fire truck or a police car rather than an ambulance. — PolitiTweet.org

@petecasellini @newrepublic The murder trial in your example doesn't get in the way of Biden's presidency. Also, Trump is already disgraced. A second impeachment won't change the verdict of history. — PolitiTweet.org

What could be more Trumpian than this: "Trump has instructed aides not to pay Giuliani’s legal fees, two officials said." https://t.co/chHDki6Ewp — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@Mandabar2 @newrepublic If you get 17 Republican votes in the Senate. That seems like such a long-shot that I didn't mention it in my piece. Trump only loses these privileges if he is convicted in the Senate. And then Congress passes legislation. — PolitiTweet.org

@gjysta @newrepublic It would be immediately tabled without debate. — PolitiTweet.org

@jamespmanley Thanks, in advance, for reading. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
Forgive my contrarian ways. But I can't see any upside for the Democrats and, especially, Biden in a Senate trial after Trump leaves office. I make that case in @newrepublic: https://t.co/UTsz1GsbgE — PolitiTweet.org
