“Social scientists have identified at least three major forces that collectively bind together successful democracies: social capital (networks with high levels of trust), strong institutions, and shared stories. Social media has weakened all three.” https://t.co/h2diRNbHnu — PolitiTweet.org

Both the Democratic Party and the Republican Party should be two separate parties by now. This would save democracy. Instead our fate hinges on the health of a 75 year old with poor eating habits. — PolitiTweet.org

Why is local journalism so important for democracy - and what can be done to fill the void left by 2,000+ shuttered local papers? Now on https://t.co/PjWTwI7FIz @taraemcg founder of @CourierNewsroom talks media tribes, how to get factual information to disengaged voters and more. https://t.co/xxwGxPTboG — PolitiTweet.org

You know who else put country over party - the Democrats of Utah. 👍🇺🇸 https://t.co/FdvpDwCxqi — PolitiTweet.org
Andrew Yang🧢⬆️🇺🇸 @AndrewYang
The Republicans who have gone against Trump (e.g., Adam Kinzinger, Liz Cheney, Lisa Murkowski, Peter Meijer) deserve more credit and support for putting country and principle over party. They courted a lot of hostility. 👍🙏🇺🇸 — PolitiTweet.org

Look don’t take my word for it: check out “Why We’re Polarized” by Ezra Klein, “The Two-Party Doom Loop” by Lee Drutman, “The Righteous Mind” by Jonathan Haidt, or “The Politics Industry” by Katherine Gehl and Michael Porter. Or anything by Lawrence Lessig. — PolitiTweet.org

@Matthew_G_Brady If you’re deeply concerned about this join @fairvote and advocate for ranked choice voting and problem solved. — PolitiTweet.org

@Matthew_G_Brady This comment makes a lot of assumptions and also says nothing about the points above. But if someone was saying this that no one had heard of no one would notice. Because people have been saying it for years but they get ignored/drowned out by the duopoly’s media chorus. — PolitiTweet.org
Andrew Yang🧢⬆️🇺🇸 @AndrewYang
@glentonrich I think Vance won with 32%. But you’re spot on. 😀👍 — PolitiTweet.org
Andrew Yang🧢⬆️🇺🇸 @AndrewYang
The duopoly is distorting what we see. It’s not that all Republicans want Trump. It’s that party officials are committing career suicide (and courting death threats) by going against him, primary voters skew to the most extreme, and the voting public only has one of two options. — PolitiTweet.org
Andrew Yang🧢⬆️🇺🇸 @AndrewYang
Still, 23.3 percent in a primary means ~30 to 40 percent of general Republican voters are either open to moving on from Trump or want to do so. The question is how to give them a real choice and opportunity. Most wouldn’t consider a Democrat. But many are looking for a new home. — PolitiTweet.org
Andrew Yang🧢⬆️🇺🇸 @AndrewYang
As one person puts it “the thing about Trump is he blocks out the sun.” I know moderate Republicans considering challenging him in the primary. I doubt they get the oxygen or attention necessary to compete. And again the primary voters tend to be the most extreme. — PolitiTweet.org

Andrew Yang🧢⬆️🇺🇸 @AndrewYang
When I talk to Republicans many of them hold out hope that Trump won’t be the nominee. That hope is fading fast. Trump endorsees have dominated primaries thus far. The “enough with Trump” candidate in Ohio got 23.3 percent. Trump will likely dominate the field if he runs. — PolitiTweet.org

@stormiibabii_ The “enough with Trump vote” in the Ohio primaries was 23% for Dolan. That’s among Republican primary voters. So the appetite for the generic Republican voter to move on from Trump is probably somewhere in the 30s. — PolitiTweet.org
Andrew Yang🧢⬆️🇺🇸 @AndrewYang
@stormiibabii_ The problem for Republicans is that it’s very bad for their careers (and even their sense of safety, as they are prone to threats) to go against Trump within the party. That’s why you see so much obeisance. The brave souls who are standing on principle deserve more credit. — PolitiTweet.org
Andrew Yang🧢⬆️🇺🇸 @AndrewYang
@stormiibabii_ The sane part of the Republican Party is coming to the same type of conclusion as Trump runs the primaries. The current Republican Party doesn’t have a platform. Moderate Republicans who are not for Trump are now seeing the same need for realignment of the party system. — PolitiTweet.org
Andrew Yang🧢⬆️🇺🇸 @AndrewYang
@jamccaffrey Thanks John 👍 — PolitiTweet.org

TL;DR the duopoly will just waste your time and energy and make you crazy. It’s time for a new approach - and party - that will make common cause with Americans of every background that are being failed by this system. — PolitiTweet.org
Andrew Yang🧢⬆️🇺🇸 @AndrewYang
The question then is: how to achieve anything? The answer lies in moving away from the two-party system and pushing toward reforms that enable different factions and coalitions to emerge that also introduces real competition for both parties. Is it hard? Sure. But also necessary. — PolitiTweet.org
Andrew Yang🧢⬆️🇺🇸 @AndrewYang
The 5th is that in a system where 90% of seats are uncompetitive in the general and incumbents have a 94% re-election rate despite 80% of Americans disapproving of Congressional performance, there is no real set of incentives or accountability for representatives. — PolitiTweet.org
Andrew Yang🧢⬆️🇺🇸 @AndrewYang
The 4th is that Republican voters are overweighted because they live in more low-population states where their votes count more heavily. This has the effect of making the average state 6 points more Republican than the average voter. Dems would need to win 54% in multiple cycles. — PolitiTweet.org
Andrew Yang🧢⬆️🇺🇸 @AndrewYang
The third is the Dems’ relationship with the media. The mainstream media will generally marginalize or ignore certain candidates. Meanwhile 69% of Democrats have a high trust in media. The Dems will tend to be more institutional (than say Republicans, 85% of whom mistrust media). — PolitiTweet.org
Andrew Yang🧢⬆️🇺🇸 @AndrewYang
The second is money in politics. The DNC raised $493 million in 2020. The DCCC raised $346 million and the DSC $303 million. Billions more come in from corporations and PACs. Most of that money is not geared toward backing candidates who are looking to rock the boat. — PolitiTweet.org
