Nate Cohn @Nate_Cohn

@PatrickRuffini @sharkey at that point, why do doctors even need to treat unvaccinated coronavirus patients, especially if one of the key public health arguments is that it'll overwhelm the hospital system? i just don't see how this is a credible line of reasoning for a government — PolitiTweet.org

Nate Cohn @Nate_Cohn

@PatrickRuffini @sharkey i can't imagine there a plausible statutory/mission basis for the CDC, for instance, to decide it no longer cares about a pandemic hospitalization/death/case load because it's disproportionately affecting a population that's been deemed irresponsible in some way — PolitiTweet.org

Nate Cohn @Nate_Cohn

@PatrickRuffini @sharkey do elected and public health officials really have a choice not to care about the unvaccinated? it's easy enough not to care about them yourself, clearly, but officials charged with public responsibility can't ignore the well-being of 30%, especially if it creates public risks — PolitiTweet.org

@JakeMGrumbach @jon_m_rob @hill_charlotte and as long as the debate about the effect of suppression focuses on the mitigating effect of mobilization/backlash (which I see as mainly coming from Biden admin, not Charlotte), there won't be as much thought about the magnitude of the burden on voters — PolitiTweet.org

Nate Cohn @Nate_Cohn

@JakeMGrumbach @jon_m_rob @hill_charlotte i'm just disagreeing with the initial JR tweet. he hopes people agree with his view that the new laws create few burdens on voters. i think he's wrong: the suppression v. mobilization/backlash debate proceeds under the assumption that they do create burdens — PolitiTweet.org

(and getting subversion provisions fleshed out and on the table has independent value for reformers, even if the strategy still has some serious shortcomings) — PolitiTweet.org

Nate Cohn @Nate_Cohn

A very good question of course, though even if they just want to run back the same unusual strategy they had for HR1, they still needed a more credible legislative vehicle than they had https://t.co/aiwo838boB — PolitiTweet.org

Nate Cohn @Nate_Cohn

And the category of 'subversion' covers a wide range of potential actions, which often need to be addressed in isolation--and could be addressed in very different ways. Together, there's a huge range of possible remedies that might be included under this rubric — PolitiTweet.org

Nate Cohn @Nate_Cohn

It'll be very interesting to see what this looks like. Even today, there aren't many public proposals for how to tackle subversion, which emerged as the preeminent risk to democracy over the last year and hadn't previously received much attention from activists or analysts — PolitiTweet.org

Nate Cohn @Nate_Cohn

"The bill’s authors also plan to include language intended to undercut state laws in places like Georgia that they believe would allow Republican elected officials to subvert the results of an election to favor their candidates." https://t.co/BaVfUWgNCZ — PolitiTweet.org

Nate Cohn @Nate_Cohn

@jon_m_rob @hill_charlotte though the decision to focus on countermobilization or backlash kind of suggests otherwise, as those are the theories which don't require engagement on the more important question about whether these laws create (and/or convenience voting alleviates) serious burdens on voters — PolitiTweet.org
