There are two political universes: The first is the parties, the pundits, the money, the polls, the debates, and the media. I call it the political /media industrial complex. 1/1

The second is the American people, the voters, those who Thomas Jefferson referred to as “the only safe repository of power.” 1/2

In ‘20 as in’16, the first ate the second one alive. One of the most important activities on earth has been reduced to a carnival show, overseen by unscrupulous people who couldn’t care less. I hope at least some of them are using this time to think about what they’ve done again.

Maybe my favorite tweet of yours so far (out of many good). Yes, I’m tired of being devoured, and living among others devoured and spit out. Yet, not easy to sort as candidates have both shadow and light. How to do it?

The media is like the weather. Everyone talks about it, but... Since we need intermediaries, the question of how to ensure their influence is healthy? I don’t know how this gets solved. Twitter is about as good a solution as I see with ppl taking re everything.
