After Medicare was enacted in 1965, a conservative organization of doctors asked its members to boycott the program. [New York Times front page, August 5, 1965) https://t.co/WuuUZGphg3 — PolitiTweet.org

The Green New Deal shifted the center of gravity so now a Democrat funded by the Kochs and Big Oil has to campaign as a climate champion now. *chefs kiss* https://t.co/VQSd2WgLZr — PolitiTweet.org

Democrats and the left need a government that allows majorities to govern and pass laws. The GOP doesn't. A gridlocked government unable to rein in billionaire donors is useful. It's why democracy reform should be such a bigger discussion in the primary than it currently is. — PolitiTweet.org

This Linzian moment happened almost a year ago. It's not how democracy should work. Trump: "I won the Presidency. We're in charge." Pelosi: "We won the House." Trump: "We won the Senate." Schumer: "Don't brag about winning North Dakota." https://t.co/UsAs8Dsa1e — PolitiTweet.org

It's no surprise then in the moments of our country's history where multiracial democracy and economic democracy were expanded, both Lincoln and FDR found themselves in bitter conflict with a conservative Supreme Court. https://t.co/8yu1HknSHs — PolitiTweet.org

The constitutional crisis will persist without major structural reforms, especially because a likely scenario in 2021 is an emboldened Democratic president in constant conflict with a GOP-controlled SCOTUS and Senate over the meaning of executive power. — PolitiTweet.org

Our political system allows one party to prevents the country from coming to a resolution on major conflicts like gun violence or immigration because our system awards the party that loses the popular vote with the presidency, the Senate, and two Supreme Court justices. — PolitiTweet.org

Mouffe: “Too much emphasis on consensus with aversion towards confrontations, leads to apathy and to a disaffection with political participation." Mouffe argues that it can also lead to 'adversaries' becoming existential 'enemies' as conflict doesn't arrive at any resolution. https://t.co/g14jg17Epr — PolitiTweet.org

Our system incentivizes "grand bargains" to "get things done" where Democrats win higher taxes on the rich in exchange for Republicans winning cuts to Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. Bargains that are intolerable to today's ideological voters and party activists. — PolitiTweet.org

Our political system isn't built for intense ideological conflict -- it's built to suppress it. It's why our political culture is so focused on "bipartisanship" and "reaching across the aisle." It's also why slavery and segregation went unaddressed by Congress for so long. — PolitiTweet.org

In "Perils of Presidentialism," Linz argued that presidentialist systems tend to break down due to this inherent flaw between the legislature and executive. The US was the exception to the rule because our society and parties were never "ideologically polarized." Not anymore. https://t.co/Yuz6wwCxH4 — PolitiTweet.org

Americans are taught about how our three branches of government ensure "checks-and-balances" to power. That pillar of our civic religion is splintering under this constitutional crisis where all branches claim to represent "the people" and there's no way to resolve the impasse. — PolitiTweet.org
