I open by pointing out that if what you want in a president is a powerful manly physique, Gerald Ford was your guy. Donald Trump, by contrast, was the least physically capable president since Franklin Delano Roosevelt post-polio. https://t.co/HVjV9kzpS9 — PolitiTweet.org

@megynkelly It also needs to be said: whatever else she has done and is doing in her media career - @megynkelly showed a moment of courage and integrity unequalled by anyone at her former network. So even at her worst moments, let's recall to mind her best. https://t.co/2sD7FcgPDx — PolitiTweet.org

@SykesCharlie @BulwarkOnline In @theBulwark podcast, we discuss Trump fan art that shows the former president riding a velociraptor - and I make the point that the weight of the nearly 300 lb former president would have crushed to death the 2-meter long reptile. — PolitiTweet.org

@megynkelly .@megynkelly wants to insist she is not "anti-vax." That's good. She should in that case be encouraging her fan base to protect themselves by vaccinating - not scoring cheap social-media engagement by inciting them against the vaccine that will protect them and their families. — PolitiTweet.org

@EducationNext The poll numbers on vaccination hesitancy are often worryingly large. The numbers of resignations over vaccination requirements are reassuringly few. And so it will almost certainly be in the schools as well. END — PolitiTweet.org

@EducationNext One thing we've learned this September is that polls about vaccination do not accurately predict what people will actually *do* if faced with the real-world consequences of an anti-social choice. 7/x — PolitiTweet.org

David Frum @davidfrum

@EducationNext But make it 100% certain that without vaccination the child must pay for a COVID test every week - or attend class remotely - or be excluded from sports leagues - and then the anti-social expression of tribal identity will cease to appear "cost free." 6/x — PolitiTweet.org
