From my @rollcall column: "If Tanden’s nomination were withdrawn, Biden would replace her with another knowledgeable mainstream Democrat. It’s not like the Republicans would be rewarded with the second coming of Mick Mulvaney as OMB director." https://t.co/zZT45QN17L — PolitiTweet.org

My @rollcall column: "Neera Tanden boasts the two skills most needed in an incoming OMB director — a far-reaching understanding of how the federal government works and the trust of the president-elect." https://t.co/zZT45QN17L — PolitiTweet.org

If she loses and needs money, they can always turn it into a Ritz-Carlton. — PolitiTweet.org

@ClydeHaberman It's also long, long past knowing when to walk away with dignity. Before Trump is finished with his crazed conspiracies, he will probably claim that Mike Pence too is a secret pawn of Hugo Chavez. His last words in the White House will be, "Et tu, Mike?" — PolitiTweet.org

@subsix848 I know three otherwise healthy people in their 20s or early 30s who were devastated by the disease and are wobbly many months later. Focusing exclusively on the mortality tables has unfortunately obscured this important reality. — PolitiTweet.org

@subsix848 I assume you have read the many articles about people under 40 who have had Covid and are still dealing with severe symptoms six months later even if they are not still infectious. — PolitiTweet.org

When it comes to risky behavior and COVID, I wish more people understood the rules of Russian Roulette. Just because there was no bullet the first time you played the game doesn't mean that there isn't a bullet in the chamber waiting for you next time or the time after that. — PolitiTweet.org

No wonder Trump thought the White House is a dump. Even when new, there were no gold faucets in the bathroom. — PolitiTweet.org

@daveweigel Everyone in the picture came with proxies for the 4000 pro-Trump voters (not pictured) from Broward County that each of them represent. — PolitiTweet.org

More brilliant Trump three dimensional chess on how to achieve party unity before two Senate-deciding runoffs. Nothing in “The Queen’s Gambit” matches Trump’s mastery of political chess. — PolitiTweet.org

President Trump now says he regrets endorsing Brian Kemp in the 2018 race for governor: https://t.co/PnWxbIycQE

@StuPolitics You , of course, know about the basement lab in the White House where Dr. Trump does his experiments when he isn’t hate-watching Fox News. — PolitiTweet.org

I wish this sentence would greet visitors to a Trump Library: "Trump endangered America’s democracy, threatened to undermine national security and public health, and duped millions of his supporters into believing...that Biden was elected illegitimately." https://t.co/9lG0SyMaVM — PolitiTweet.org

@StevenLevy Tragically, this story is only online as of yet. Boy do I have a lot to look forward to "hygge-wise" next Sunday. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
The Sunday Styles section in the NYT has surpassed itself. We have gone beyond parody. The two front-page stories in the print edition are about rich trust-fund millennials fighting capitalism and a social network for, yes, real-life hermits. https://t.co/UbB5KzJqSU — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
Trump is on par to better Stassen's 48-year record of presidential futility in a single orgy of failed and often ludicrous law suits. It is just a reminder that there is nothing that Donald J. Trump can't fail at if he puts his mind to it. https://t.co/ktgrg1TU0i — PolitiTweet.org

@alex_shephard You didn't read Vonnegut's later collection: "Unwelcome to the Monkey House." — PolitiTweet.org

@DougJBalloon This one is exceptionally good. — PolitiTweet.org

Can you imagine a headline like this being necessary: "Jimmy Carter says he’ll leave the White House if the Electoral College confirms Ronald Reagan’s win in December." — PolitiTweet.org

@lisatozzi @GetSpectrum I kept thinking about the advertising agency that made the ad. Did they think that too many people with masks would be a downer? Could they only splice in one scene with a mask in a pre-made ad? Or did they really believe that offices with Spectrum were safe spaces? — PolitiTweet.org

@lisatozzi @GetSpectrum That bothered me all through the World Series. — PolitiTweet.org

@emilyrs "Fuggin" was the euphemism that Norman Mailer used for "fucking" in his breakthrough World War II novel "The Naked and the Dead." It also inspired the 1960s rock group called "The Fugs." — PolitiTweet.org

@margotroosevelt @latimes @carlosvlozano I wish I had known him. This is a lovely tribute with, yes, a glorious ending. — PolitiTweet.org

@scottgurvey I mention all these possibilities since I doubt that this is the outcome that Amy Coney Barrett craved. — PolitiTweet.org

In NYC, it is routine for doctor's offices and even restaurants to take temperatures and ask about travel outside the area. After the Supreme Court's super-spreader decision, I can imagine them asking about a new high-risk factor: "Do you attend religious services in a pandemic?" — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
In light of the Supreme Court super-spreader decision on religion and COVID, I wonder if stores in NYC will suddenly post signs, "It's Safe to Enter. Our Entire Staff Is Made Up of Atheists, Agnostics and Non-Believers." — PolitiTweet.org

@JournalYear @newrepublic People I know who have worked with Mayorkas rave about him. — PolitiTweet.org

Why suddenly at midnight on Thanksgiving is my Twitter feed full of glowing endorsements of Michele Flournoy? I am not commenting on her merits, but somehow I sense that this is not a coincidence. — PolitiTweet.org

@mattizcoop "The Godfather." And "The Invisible Man." Plus "Around the World in 80 Days." A case can be made for "Terms of Endearment." — PolitiTweet.org
