FYI, to @JoshMandelOhio--I don't think Never Trumpers is hyphenated. Also, if anyone has audio of the event at the 2012 Republican convention in Tampa when Josh and I both spoke and he went on about his high regard for me, The Weekly Standard, and Mitt Romney, feel free to post. — PolitiTweet.org

Shouldn't Booker release the text of the final Democratic offer, and perhaps ask Schumer to put it on the floor so it can be debated? Does Scott have legitimate concerns important enough to scuttle the bill? Or not? How about letting the rest of us have some visibility into this? — PolitiTweet.org

Can’t believe I’m hearing an apparent tolerance—even liking—for RANCH DRESSING among people I like and respect, such as @jwharris and @scottlincicome. What is the world coming to? Are we next going to be hearing praise for…mayonnaise? OMG. — PolitiTweet.org

If 60 or so Republicans voted for the bipartisan bill the Democratic left would lose leverage, the bill would pass, and Rs could then press moderate Ds to join in blocking reconciliation in the House. But that would require the GOP to care about policy instead of pure opposition. — PolitiTweet.org

"Aspirational strongmen are always with us. But what has changed in America over the last several years is that the elite members of the conservative movement and the Republican party decided to work with them, to abet them, to cover for them." --@JVLast https://t.co/lIDl6IoeG7 — PolitiTweet.org

Mike Luttig was an excellent assistant attorney general in the George H.W. Bush administration, in which Dan Quayle was a fine vice president. It seems fitting that in their persona the George H.W. Bush administration did its bit three decades later to help defend the republic. — PolitiTweet.org

Hoyer says he'll bring up a separate bill to provide funding for Iron Dome later this week under suspension, which would require a two-thirds majority to pass, which presumably it will get. So a healthy majority of Democrats can this week repudiate anti-Israel "progressives". — PolitiTweet.org
