Fetterman and Sinema are interesting case studies in centrist brain. Here you have the two examples of centrist politics that actually exist and both are massively despised and have failed at moving anyone from the right. Yet groups like third way pretend they don’t exist.


Centrists: ‘It’s us or Hasan’ Voters, without thinking: ‘Hasan’ Centrists: ‘This debate is pointless. Who even cares about Hasan, really?’

Holy crap! I would never have guessed that Alex Jones was a hottie back in the day. How is this the same person?



My warm take on birthright citizenship: Wholly defensible to be against it as policy and wholly reasonable to want to reform it in some way. Also intellectually defensible to say that the 14th amendment is being misinterpreted. Doesn't mean I agree, but I don't think it's crazy either. But even if you win that argument, you still need to deal with century+ of precedent and statutory language that codifies it and has created massive reliance interests. I consider it an open question whether Congress can repeal or modify birthright citizenship. I think it is absolutely nuts and dangerous to think a president can repeal it through executive order, and defending the E.O. because you agree with the underlying policy is itself indefensible. That's it. That's my take.
