From my latest in @newrepublic: "Once again, political reporters and campaign analysts are making their traditional quadrennial mistake—getting too far ahead of the story in their eagerness to handicap the presidential race." https://t.co/wCqpGNz4QU — PolitiTweet.org

Shocking development about Trump: "The former president made inaccurate claims about the murder rate in New York, the withdrawal from Afghanistan and windmills at a conservative conference." I'm stunned and heart-broken. https://t.co/gAwhIc4OwX — PolitiTweet.org

@baseballot Barack Obama during the 2010 midterms had an elaborate metaphor about the Republicans under George W. Bush driving the car in the ditch and now they wanted the car keys back. The metaphor was so persuasive that the Democrats only lost 63 House seats. — PolitiTweet.org

Paywalled, there is a gushy profile and interview of DeSantis in the The Times (London). A sample: "He is also often characterised in the American media as aloof and awkward, so it is a pleasant surprise to find him personable and chatty in person." https://t.co/zYtvxLScBY — PolitiTweet.org

@wgboulet I found Tom Dewey using the "Democrat Party" formulation in 1950. And, ironically, he was rightly attacking the segregationist wing of the party. https://t.co/ovAf38tdBb — PolitiTweet.org

Never using the final "ic" in "Democratic" has been a weird GOP trope since, I believe, the 1950s. And it has never gotten the Republicans a single vote, especially among grammarians. — PolitiTweet.org

I so love that this great piece quotes David Brock, the right-wing 1990s anti-Clinton zealot who now is a left-wing incendiary. It's like in the 1950s when former Communists made good money as militant anti-Communists. — PolitiTweet.org

Me in @rollcall: "The House Republicans who will be holding hearings into Biden Land possess, shall we say, less than a judicial temperament." They're like the Queen of Hearts in "Alice in Wonderland" who decreed, "Sentence first -- verdict afterwards." https://t.co/jqZI1jAqwc — PolitiTweet.org

.@JillDLawrence notes something peculiar about Josh Hawley: "There’s always some catch for Hawley. He wants to help workers, but he voted against jobs and safety for people he professes to care about." It's so confusing about this tribune of the people. https://t.co/LxpAP0ycze — PolitiTweet.org
