To those who have asked, I have known Mark Halperin as a reporter for 25 years. He emailed me three questions about the 2020 race for a book he was writing and I replied in a few sentences, without giving enough thought to how my participation would be used or interpreted. — PolitiTweet.org

Though each man would have you believe he IS the state, you can be pro-Israel and anti-Netanyahu; and you can be pro-American and anti-Trump. That’s how democracies work! It’s what distinguishes us from autocracies. — PolitiTweet.org

“Trump — with the knowing help of Israel’s current prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu — is doing something no American president & Israeli prime minister have done before: They’re making support for Israel a wedge issue in American politics.” Tom Friedman https://t.co/ooE7RdCbi4 — PolitiTweet.org

What better way to mark the 50th annivesary of Woodstock than to watch the always colorful @BillWalton do color commentary w/@jasonbenetti on the @WhiteSox-@Angels game? Not many baseball insights but deep lessons for life! Only thing missing is the @GratefulDead! https://t.co/OYnOQQ7lDF — PolitiTweet.org

How striking that Peter Fonda, whose Easy Rider biker flick was an iconic film of the Woodstock era, passed away on the 50th anniversary of that historic music festival. RIP — PolitiTweet.org

I totally get why @RashidaTlaib turned down the Israeli offer to grant her a visit to her family. I am confused as to why she apparently asked? — PolitiTweet.org

If the U.S. actually could purchase Greenland, as @POTUS apparently has suggested, would he rename it Trumpland? #Branding — PolitiTweet.org

Listening to @realDonaldTrump just now diverting questions about background checks to an argument that mass shootings are the result of the closing of mental institutions in the ‘70s, his chained has been pulled by the NRA again. — PolitiTweet.org

Would that the @POTUS had showed the deep concern about anti-semitism he professed today when neo-Nazis were marching in the streets of Charlottesville, chanting “Jews won’t replace us!” — PolitiTweet.org

Doesn’t it show great weakness to yield within minutes to the Tweet of foreign leader? — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

There are many similarities between @realDonaldTrump and @IsraeliPM. Each is cravenly political, self-interested and willing to do anything to hold on to power. This move today reflects that. — PolitiTweet.org

And it’s not only bad advice, it’s advice that should be given in private and not through the media! — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

This is bad advice. You can’t cloister the candidate and win. He either can cut it or he can’t, and the only way he can prove he can is to be an active and vigorous candidate. He’s running for president of the United States, for God’s sake! https://t.co/SCZmqVYapF — PolitiTweet.org

Explain to me why the majorities are smaller for banning the sale of weapons of war like the ones that led to slaughters in El Paso and Dayton. I honestly don’t get it. Then why not sell bazookas and rocket launchers? https://t.co/XoZDLKi3Tp — PolitiTweet.org

@realDonaldTrump Here is the key to understanding @realDonaldTrump and the economy. When the markets are UP, he is wholly responsible. When the markets are DOWN, it’s someone else’s fault. — PolitiTweet.org

Nothing like a strong leader rising to the occasion and taking responsibility in tough times! Actually, this IS nothing like that. — PolitiTweet.org

On the latest #AxeFiles on @hearluminary, @RepJoeKennedy recalls @ewarren as his law school professor, and talks about the qualities he remembers that are now powering her presidential campaign. Podcast here: https://t.co/gT87ZPXXhB https://t.co/ET98xUVB4W — PolitiTweet.org

“I got sued on a thing called 'emoluments,'” Trump said. “Now nobody looks at Obama getting $60 million for a book. That’s OK, even though nobody in history ever got that much money for a book. ... But with me, it's everything.” WHAT?!? — PolitiTweet.org
