@DouthatNYT Social conservative message to young men, 1982: Work a job, marry your girlfriend, join a church, have kids, buy a house, save for retirement. Today, all that is the "blue pill" from which the culture-war right promises to rescue young men. It's still good advice though. — PolitiTweet.org

The violently misogynist Tate is a perfect example of @DouthatNYT concept of the post-religious right. Tate's not any "conservative" as conservatism was understood in, say, 1982. But in 2022, he's recognized, championed, and defended by the culture-war right as one of their own. — PolitiTweet.org

A reader corrects me on the Wodehouse canon. It was Galahad Threepwood who wrote the memoirs that had to be destroyed for the sake of social harmony. — PolitiTweet.org

As I compiled the memoir, I often felt like the PG Wodehouse character, Sir Watkyn Bassett, whose memoirs of London society in the 1880s must be burglarized and destroyed for the public safety. — PolitiTweet.org

@TheHubCanada @Sean_Speer Finally, some personal news. I spent much of 2022 working on a new book, a political memoir of a life in the conservative world. I finished a draft just before Christmas. I am now deciding whether to proceed or to entomb it in a lead box and bequeath it to the Smithsonian. — PolitiTweet.org

@TheHubCanada @Sean_Speer After the death of Queen Elizabeth, Sean and I discussed the the monarchy in the Canadian constitutional system. It sounds an obscure topic, but there's a huge hazard ready to detonate unless timely reform is made https://t.co/a0eJDlTN2E — PolitiTweet.org

@TheHubCanada @Sean_Speer In August, I warned that Canada's existing system for selecting its Governor General is a ticking constitutional time bomb waiting to detonate. It sounds obscure now, but if/when it happens, Canadians will wish they had acted to prevent it https://t.co/a0eJDlTN2E — PolitiTweet.org

In September, Biden gave a speech that criticized Trump by name. Critics said Biden had blundered. I countered that Biden had set and sprung a trap that would help Democrats in the midterms. That counter-argument looks right in retrospect https://t.co/NSBHRFwkwN — PolitiTweet.org
