In 2007, I published a book outlining a possible future for a more pragmatic conservatism. It urged policies vs obesity as a way to control health care costs.

... that Trump country has not only made anti-vaccination a cultural signifier - it's done the same with morbid obesity as well. Remember Sarah Palin's mockery of Michelle Obama "Let's Move" campaign? 4/x — PolitiTweet.org

There have been 222 school shootings thus far in 2021, so if gun owners had to observe a 2-day blackout after each one, they'd never be able to pose for family pictures with their weapons. — PolitiTweet.org
