2/ which was: no. No help, no negotiations, no counter. Nothing. This is what I mean by losing well vs losing badly. Choosing the former often means you don’t lose at all. Bush’s plan collapsed. But you can lose in ways that are devastating beyond the immediate loss.
@joshtpm -- Wed Sep 29 04:02:39 +0000 2021

2/ indeed more business friendly Dems in blue areas will be replaced by more progressive Dems. at one level these folks don’t care abt the internal coalition challenges of the Dem party. But more interesting to me is how few even get this at all.
@joshtpm -- Wed Sep 29 03:48:36 +0000 2021
One irony of the moment is I hear repeatedly abt biz lobbyists saying straightforwardly they want the BIF bad and want the recon bill to collapse. That’s ideal outcome. They don’t seem to grasp that if that happens all the remaining “mods” will lose their seats.
@joshtpm -- Wed Sep 29 03:42:33 +0000 2021
this is right. and for various reasons I think it’s better to kill the BIF than to risk BIF and nothing else. If you’re going to lose you need to lose well than lose badly. Getting jerked around with BIF bill is losing badly. https://t.co/TTxircrAHU

@joshtpm -- Wed Sep 29 01:19:32 +0000 2021
@ericowensdc Truly a mystery. But the best I can figure is that she is trying to carve out a McCain type role for herself in AZ. And bucking her party, not being a traditional lib is what gets her there. Add to that she has a wild political past. So to a degree I think she thinks she ...

@joshtpm -- Wed Sep 29 01:17:23 +0000 2021

2/ This is clarifying on another level. We hear a lot about the 'better way' to execute the withdrawal everyone supposedly agrees on. If only Biden opted for the 'better way.' As we can see here the 'better way' was not to withdraw.
@joshtpm -- Tue Sep 28 15:52:12 +0000 2021
Note what Ted's saying here. The President decided to withdraw. The commanding general recommending against withdrawing - leaving 2,500 troops. The President decided otherwise and ordered the withdrawal. That may be a good or bad decision. But it's the President's decision. https://t.co/SBeVC6jTpD

@RadioFreeTom Doesn't that get back to mission? If you're leaving and the people who you want to evac are in Kabul, not sure what you'd use it for. I guess my point is simply it makes sense if the strategy is to leave and leave unconditionally.

@davidmweissman @AdamKinzinger Last post on this :) but giving yourself a PR deadline of “Aug 31” is the direct opposite tactic to saying an unconditional withdrawal. The first one boxes you in, and the second one frees you up. should have used our military’s advised schedule for safe withdrawl. My $0.02.
@LouiseMensch -- Tue Sep 28 13:15:27 +0000 2021
@davidmweissman @AdamKinzinger Had he taken just a little bit longer, we could have secured nationals and allies, removed our military equipment, some of which is now in Tehran, and completed a proper handover to the Afghan military including servicing aircraft. They would still control AFG if he did that.
@LouiseMensch -- Tue Sep 28 13:14:09 +0000 2021
@davidmweissman @AdamKinzinger 2/2 in that regard, Biden was right to say that the withdrawal from Afghanistan was going to be unconditional. It meant that he was not boxed in by events. My quarrel with his policy of withdrawal is very minor. It was the manner in which he did it that was the issue.
@LouiseMensch -- Tue Sep 28 13:13:20 +0000 2021
@davidmweissman @AdamKinzinger David you may have a very solid point in saying that we shouldn’t make threats, because if we do not intend to carry out those threats we look weak and stupid. It is infinitely better not to make a threat, than to make one, then failed to follow through. 1/2

@barefootswan @davidmweissman I wish I could agree but I can’t. Just saw another woman on the news telling her woeful tale of being scammed to save others. Obviously that doesn’t work, it didn’t stop her from being gullible

So, if life gives you lemons, you make lemonade? What do you make of life keeps giving you a fuck load of shit….?

@davidmweissman I haven't read one bad story about you or ypur family situation. What a nasty trolls. Please go for a walk; log out. Focus on PPL with integrity - take care.

@davidmweissman @AmyAThatcher Exactly. Take a step back before reacting. A lesson that took long in the learning.

@davidmweissman "Start with the meaning of the word 'research'." Damn I need like a Blue book to type that one out. 😂

@davidmweissman As a POC I get wanting to read up and ask a question. I did myself. There was PLENTY of time to ask before they reached his "age" in the roll out.

BREAKING NEWS: Trump announces that he will sue the Biden White House in order to block his and his administration’s records relating to his deadly insurrection from reaching the January 6 Committee. However, Biden will have the final say. RT IF BIDEN SHOULD RELEASE THE RECORDS!

@davidmweissman David, there is no need to ever address your private life. You don't owe it to anyone who isn't involved personally. You have no obligation to justify anything, or to try and satisfy your enemies. It's a no-win effort.

11) Now lets stop for a second. You have a mask covering nose and mouth and oxygen pumped from a wall. How "free" do you think that makes you? No freedom to eat, no freedom to walk away. 12) This spot reserved for intubation. TRUST ME u dont want to know. #tuesdayvibe
