@hunterbaker I heard that church, synagogue, and mosque services also caused rapid spread in tight communities.

Socialism: When you’re too cowardly to ask for a raise, look for a better job, start your own business, or ask others for help in person.

@JoeBiden speaking to (yelling at) voters like they’re idiot children in need of a good talking to isn’t a story for the Left, because that is the Left’s philosophical viewpoint on the electorate in a nutshell.

[E.M. Hernandez @EvanMHernandez]

Socialism is the easiest answer to every social and political question. That’s both what makes is so hard to argue against and what makes it more or less the wrong answer every time.

According to Forbes, there are 540 billionaires in the US, with a combined net worth of 2.3 trillion dollars.

Which means, if we confiscated every last dime from them, we could afford to fund Bernie Sanders Medicare for all plan for about 9 months.

@hunterbaker @realDonaldTrump When you devolve into a purely pragmatic political temperature-taker instead of someone who stands up and says what it is right and good for the government to do, it leaves me wondering why I ever bother to try and do either.

[E.M. Hernandez @EvanMHernandez]

@hunterbaker @realDonaldTrump Even if all that’s true, it bothers me. I miss the days when Conservatives didn’t want the govt to manipulate the economy, and pick winners and losers. eg Tariffs And subsidies. It’s all control. But so long as it’s on the “Right” you seem to praise it.

[E.M. Hernandez @EvanMHernandez]

@hunterbaker @realDonaldTrump Staying out of the way is not “doing”. It’s not active in the way the verb implies.

[E.M. Hernandez @EvanMHernandez]

@hunterbaker @realDonaldTrump But I can still disagree with your analysis (this is something I spend a lot of time studying too) and I think crediting the president with wage growth is silly. It’s a force way beyond his control or his efforts.

[E.M. Hernandez @EvanMHernandez]

@hunterbaker @realDonaldTrump Trade pacts, sure, but I think his foreign policy is scatter shot and his tariffs are incorrectly applied and executed.
Regulations, also sure, but like so many of the good things he’s credited for, they’re the guard rails of what remains of the GOP, not his real management. 2/2

[E.M. Hernandez @EvanMHernandez]

@hunterbaker @realDonaldTrump Judges aren’t to his credit, they’re the Senate and a team he doesn’t seem to pay attention to. The tax cuts without spending cuts are disaster waiting to happen. I’m shocked you credit the president for the economy. I thought you knew better. 1/2

[E.M. Hernandez @EvanMHernandez]

@hunterbaker @realDonaldTrump I have not seen the effectiveness you’re talking about. I see him flail in his staffing, lie to the public, make bizarre choices in his foreign policy... His successes seem to me in spite of his efforts, not because of them.

[E.M. Hernandez @EvanMHernandez]

@hunterbaker @realDonaldTrump A bizarrely inaccurate point, but sure.

[E.M. Hernandez @EvanMHernandez]

@TaylorPostage @karabettis My thoughts exactly.

[E.M. Hernandez @EvanMHernandez]

@TomBodett Sounds like you’re playing and endless, slow motion game of musical staplers.

One doesn't comply with the command to “love your enemies” by hiring someone to hate them for you.

“See? Even one of our most respected members was brought around to advocate removal. This wasn’t a purely partisan process, but a fact-finding mission that hung in a delicate balance. We, the GOP at large, voted to acquit, but NOT because the game was rigged from the beginning.”

[E.M. Hernandez @EvanMHernandez]

Even pro-Trump partisans should be pleased with Mitt Romney for voting for acquittal. Here’s why:

If a former GOP nominee for president was won over to vote against his own interests during the course of the impeachment proceedings that speaks to the fairness of the process. 1/2
