🧵 Some broad thoughts on the end of the war: 1. Trump is too lazy & clownish for a project as large & serious as a major war Once it became clear that a strategic victory required ground combat, he got cold feet. If he had read anything about US wars in the M East or had 1

So Bill Barr is on Fox now claiming that mail-in voting will bring fraud. Good grief. What a hack Barr has turned out to be. He just keeps going lower and lower for Trump.

The media owes Biden a huge apology after that disaster Can we now have 3 weeks of intense speculation on Trump’s mental health, plus endless calls for him to quit? Biden is literally owed that by any standard of fair play or equal treatment

This has been re-tweeted 1200 times, so I guess I should say this was only bc I am traveling and had to use a laptop. Once I’m home, it will be the same set-up as always.

MAGA loves to call its opponents ‘communists,’ but this is literally a neo-Marxist critique of consumerism

Trump: "I don't think a beautiful baby girl that's 11 years old needs to have 30 dolls. I think they can have three dolls or four dolls ... they don't need to have 250 pencils. They can have five."

Whoa. This is sliding toward what we have all feared: Kim flatters Trump; no one’s around to warn Trump; T gives something important away, because he doesn’t understand the issues, bc he didn’t prepare and couldn’t care less about the US architecture in Asia. This is a bad idea

.@JenniferJJacobs says Trump and Kim will first meet 1 on 1 with only translators. Does Bolton or Pompeo think that's a good idea? I don't. @ThisWeekABC

People keep asking what it’s like to be in South Korea during corona. So no, it’s not World War Z; it’s this. I can’t go to work, and my kids can’t go to school. So we’re playing a lot of Connect 4 at home. /1

This #Debate is a master-class in what’s wrong with our media-saturated, horse-race obsessed politics Trump is just lying and making stuff up. But he says it ‘vigorously’ and doesn’t get fact-checked. Therefore he’s winning. And so we’ll spend the next month debating Biden’s age
