We could argue that Trump 1 was a one-off, a freak occurrence. But electing him *twice*? Raises reasonable questions about what kind of electorate would do that.

The drop in global perceptions of the US is 100% because of Donald Trump. Clear as day.

It's funny and horrifying.
Dollars to donuts that nobody laughing now would find it funny if Japanese PM made a joke about not trusting a regime willing to use nukes against noncombatants.
Tremendously unserious to see this as just funny

The divide in America is between those who think this is hilarious and those who find it horrifying. (H/T It’s hilarious)

For context, in May 2003 the Iraq War had 74% approval
The President needs to clarify the objectives/endstate of the fight & communicate w/ the American people, rather than think some sophmoric social media posts or whining about the press from SecDef will be enough to get by
@markdtooley@markdtooley
I cannot recall any military action of last 80 years that started with such low approval. Public opinion in war is very important. Successful statecraft requires persuasion.

@HicksCBER It makes me really sad that that man thinks his voters are so stupid.

This is target at folks with a 60-70 IQ, so if you believe it, please understand it is meant for you.

The Democrats just decided to officially become the party of PUNCHING PUPPIES. 190 Democrats just voted to give illegal immigrants the RIGHT TO PHYSICALLY ABUSE American service dogs — serving with law enforcement protecting American citizens. The level Democrats will go to protect illegal aliens instead of Americans is disturbing, disgusting, and dangerous.

Taught at West Point for nine years and never made it to the Army-Navy game despite having season tickets. The game is right before finals week which is the craziest time of life for a professor. I always promised myself next year but....

@Tazerface16 Friend, snap out of it, you took an oath to the Constitution -- and that was worth it.

@NewReaganCaucus @CountryFirstRep This is right. If the cost of this war is merely $1.00 extra per gallon gas for, say 25 years, it is a bargain.
Realistically, we are likely 300 Purple Hearts deep into a war that will yield a marginally gas tax increase of $3.00 or more per gallon and a deep recession.

@CountryFirstRep $1.00/gal in the short-term to obliterate the most evil regime on earth is a small price. We've gotten decadent.

.@AnthropicAI has released a 3 page memo explaining how economists add value to this rising firm. I have incorporated what I learned from this memo into my paper; "Will AI Improve Undergraduate Economics Education?"

Constantly insulting our allies then wondering why they are reluctant to help is a 2+2 problem this administration is yet to figure the solution for

I didn’t know the Trump administration hired @ass_deans

No one could have foreseen that our new policy wouldn’t work. Except the people who advised us it wouldn’t work, but we fired all of them.

Whatever your views, worshiping politicians is cringe, especially when done in pseudo-sexual terms. Please stop.

📢New WP: Minimum Wages and Workplace Injuries
Using California state and local minimum wage increases 2000-2019, we find minimum wage hikes increase workplace injury rates for low-wage workers. A plausible mechanism is work intensification
