I don't know about Trump polling, but Karl Rove could tell you how many points Al Gore led George W. Bush among people who preferred gin to bourbon, and by how many points Bush led Gore among people who drove US rather than Japanese cars. That knowledge cost enormous sums. — PolitiTweet.org

Presidential campaigns spend millions of dollars on micro-targeted polling, state by state, county by county, demo by demo. The idea that a hostile foreign intelligence service could try to replicate this work inside the US without tripping a thousand alarms is ... uninformed. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump campaign chair Manafort shared proprietary data that the Russians used to help Trump. Did Trump order Manafort to share the data? Who knows. Was Trump aware? Ditto. Did Trump benefit? Yes. Did Trump approve? Well, he pardoned the guy who did it. — PolitiTweet.org

An impediment to understanding Trump-Russia was that cable networks relied so heavily on ex-prosecutors as explainers. Trump is a career defendant. He takes care not to generate admissable evidence. "Never write what you can say; never say what the other fellow knows already." — PolitiTweet.org

We still don't know whether Manafort was acting at Trump's behest when he shared Trump information with Russian intelligence. Not impossible Manafort was furthering some corrupt scheme of his own. But Trump's pardon of Manafort after Manafort's silence sure looks like a deal. — PolitiTweet.org

I published a Washington novel myself a decade ago. It didn't have much success, and probably didn't deserve much. But at least I can claim credit that in my book, all the villains continued to flourish to the very end. — PolitiTweet.org

Remake of "Advise & Consent," - only instead of being unanimously censured, the villainous demagogue Senator goes on a supportive cable channel, explains why he's the real victim here, denounces "cancel culture," scores a record fund-raising haul, and moves to easy re-election. — PolitiTweet.org
