Must read. If you read nothing else on American politics today, do read the first item of ⁦@JVLast⁩’s newsletter, on the utter collapse of American Conservatism before Trumpism, and on the always surrendering “Always Republican” caucus. https://t.co/gnf7xxdyrD — PolitiTweet.org

“Exit take: The starkest ideological divide in the GOP today is pro-coup or anti-coup. But this is a close second: Republicans who continue to defend Ukraine — Mike Pence, Nikki Haley, Mike Pompeo — versus the Surrender Caucus — Trump and now DeSantis.” https://t.co/aqNQ8FzzgX — PolitiTweet.org

“[Tucker’s] flirtation with white nationalism, election denialism, and insurrection revisionism have hardly dented his clout. Nor in the new GOP is [his pro-Putinism] considered disqualifying…His is the ring that must be kissed. And kiss it DeSantis did.” https://t.co/aqNQ8FzzgX — PolitiTweet.org

Just saw Ron DeSantis’s book, “The Courage To Be Free,” at Hudson News. You know who’s providing THE example of the courage to be free in today’s world? The people of Ukraine. Whom DeSantis doesn’t support. — PolitiTweet.org

I assume @WSJopinion and @NRO will not only come out strongly against DeSantis on Ukraine, but also discuss whether being on the wrong side of the defining foreign policy issue of our time isn’t disqualifying for the presidency. Or are they merely the tail to Tucker’s dog? — PolitiTweet.org

Bill Kristol @BillKristol

By the way, all those exposures of mind-bogglingly cynical and dangerous lying by Tucker and Fox News really seem to have lessened their clout with leading Republicans... https://t.co/z4BryUH4Cw — PolitiTweet.org

Bill Kristol @BillKristol

Will "Republican internationalists and hawkish elements in the party’s donor class" rally to candidates like Pence, Haley, or Christie now that DeSantis has joined Team Tucker on Ukraine? Or will they once again submit, and embrace dangerous demagoguery? https://t.co/z4BryUH4Cw — PolitiTweet.org

Bill Kristol @BillKristol

Or is there no opening for an anti-Putin candidate? Has the party been so corrupted by Trump and Trumpism that there aren’t even flickering embers left of the legacy of Reagan? Have the spirit of freedom and a sense of honor departed once and for all from the Republican Party? — PolitiTweet.org

Bill Kristol @BillKristol

Surely there’s an opening here for Christie, Haley, or Pence. There’s got to be some constituency among Republican voters, donors, and influencers for a pro-Ukraine, anti-Putin position. Probably not enough to win, but enough to get out of single digits and onto the main stage. — PolitiTweet.org

Bill Kristol @BillKristol

Very true, and depressing. — PolitiTweet.org

Bill Kristol @BillKristol

I’m surprised DeSantis didn’t say it was a far-away territorial dispute “between people of whom we know nothing.” — PolitiTweet.org
