I think “secular, but strongly nationalistic with mushy views on economics” is probably a decent model of the typical person who’d vote for Obama twice and then for Trump twice. https://t.co/aI8f75UVX6

I think it was @reihan who first pilled me about this, but @alon_levy’s explanation of why joint federal-state-local financing of transportation infrastructure leads to bloated projects is the clearest I’ve seen. https://t.co/H6NCWaWXVp

A take I’ve been meaning to do at full length but will just toss off half-assed here for now is that some of what progressives conceptualize as a debate about race and racism plays to a lot of people as a debate about patriotism.

My six year old’s argument that he should be allowed to watch cartoons this morning because “sometimes it’s a three-day weekend” is largely nonsensical. But he’s already succeeded in turning this talking point into a nightmare for dads seeking peace & quiet to drink coffee.

America is just awash in joint programs which should be mostly federalized (Medicaid, UI) or genuinely devolved (transportation).
@mattyglesias -- Sun Sep 26 21:36:02 +0000 2021
What we should have is a generic federal credit program to ensure that state governments can access cheap financing for ideas they consider worthwhile (or just countercyclical stabilization), but where they’re still playing with their own money. https://t.co/eVT6JbLl0M

The more you think America is teetering on the brink of collapsing into an authoritarian dictatorship, the *more* you should be urging progressives to trim their sails on left-left cultural politics in order to win. But the revealed preference is the opposite. https://t.co/JyiShP1Imc

If Trump is a clownish, inept, floundering figure then sure — swing for the fences, take your shot, and aim for true greatness accepting that you might lose. But if he’s menace, you need to do timid defensive crouch politics.

@jbarro I would say that both sides carry a fair amount of blame here — back to the tobacco controversies in the 90s and then climate change, conservatives have a bad habit of just rejecting any scientific evidence that implies we need any regulation of anything.

I think "cost" is properly measured as the net increase in spending, not the net increase in the deficit. The net increase in spending is less than $3.5T because there are spending cuts (most notably in the form of prescription drug price controls). But taxes just finance a cost. https://t.co/hGncxj6R82

@conorsen @TylerDinucci They‘re running in a federal election for the first time, and as a minority, the 5 percent threshold doesn’t apply for them. Therefore, I think around 30k votes are enough for a seat.

@conorsen @TylerDinucci There is a small-ish Danish speaking minority in the state of Schleswig-Holstein. SSW is a small political party that represents them. This is the first time they've won a federal seat, although they're a fixture of the state Lantag and were in the last Government there.

@mattyglesias @OsitaNwanevu @Nate_Cohn And I should say, inflammatory in both directions, since its underlying premise — if I’m right about what you think here — is that the American electorate contains a huge amount of anti-black racism that Democrats have to tread carefully around.
@jbouie -- Mon Sep 27 17:38:30 +0000 2021
@mattyglesias @OsitaNwanevu @Nate_Cohn But since Democrats do need to attract those voters, and the party is already coded as “racially liberal” (to put it politely), directly addressing black concerns over racism ends up alienating the “50-year-old white people” who say are in the driver’s seat of American politics.
@jbouie -- Mon Sep 27 17:36:44 +0000 2021
@mattyglesias @OsitaNwanevu @Nate_Cohn So this makes me think that the reason people keep saying your point is banal is that you’re not actually stating your point. As I read you, you’re saying something like “Democrats are undermining themselves by making ‘attitudes about black people’ a salient political concern.”

Now you can be an elite while making virtually no money, while someone who owns like six car dealerships in Findlay, Ohio is not an elite, despite having a significant income. This is very strange to me!
@janecoaston -- Mon Sep 27 13:00:23 +0000 2021
Being an elite, to me, should mean “being wealthy and thus having more economic power,” but that’s not what people frame it to mean anymore, because that would indict too many of those very same people.
@janecoaston -- Mon Sep 27 13:00:22 +0000 2021
I think @OsitaNwanevu made this point over the weekend but we very rarely discuss working class people who live in major cities or on the coasts, people who are somehow framed as “elite” purely because they live in a city.
@janecoaston -- Mon Sep 27 13:28:15 +0000 2021
I think the overall thing is not that the guy who has a PhD has no power, or that the guy who owns six car dealerships has no power, it's that they *both* have power, but neither seems to want that, because that carries responsibility in some manner.

Remember, if you’re confronted by a racist lunatic in public, it’s your obligation to just suck it up and take it, and if you see a video of it happening, it’s your obligation to turn away and not comment or circulate it. Otherwise you’re part of a woke mob.

Reminder to couples expecting a baby soon: The enrollment cutoff for DC schools (and presumably elsewhere) is for kids born no later than Sept. 30th. If your kid is born October 1, you're on the hook for a whole nother year of daycare. That's ~$30,000. Have that baby by Thursday!

For sure, the 1961 planners' vision has been marred over the years, by such unfortunate happenings as the Clean Air Act lawsuit that led to the abolition of parking requirements in part of Manhattan, as well as rezonings here & there. But cards are decked in favor of status quo.

In the 1970s it was decided that the 1961 zoning resolution was so perfect and rational that every conceivable barrier should be placed in the way of any corrective zoning. ULURP was born (there's a lot of people who know more about the history than I do). https://t.co/4cN1MAdvlk

@Samir_Madani -- Tue Sep 28 05:55:56 +0000 2021
Saddam torched 1.5 BILLION BARRELS of Kuwaiti oil. We’re talking about 5 million barrels per day for 300 days. Even that didn’t cause $100 oil because Saudi and others ramped up production in order to compensate loss. US taxpayers saved Kuwait, so OPEC had to spare US taxpayers. https://t.co/L4X7BuqRGx
@Samir_Madani -- Mon Sep 27 23:45:22 +0000 2021
That didn’t even happen when a barrage of drones and missiles surgically struck Abqaiq and Khurais two years ago. Saudi simply has too much storage to ship from. https://t.co/YZ3m5NRrMh

Ask yourselves this one question: What potential does a drug dealer have if his junkie clients end up dead or unable to pay? OPEC+ will never allow a repeat of the Q2 2008 price spike because they all remember what the Q4 looked like.
@Samir_Madani -- Mon Sep 27 09:48:50 +0000 2021
And no, I am not bearish on oil because I am not taking a position against it. I think water is the mother of all commodities and will do well no matter if there's a drought or a flood. Oil should stay flat in the $70's if the upstream sector isn't taking on debt to pump more.
@Samir_Madani -- Mon Sep 27 09:32:06 +0000 2021
The biggest concern (as I see it) in the oil market right now is the slowdown of the Chinese economy. Imports are not at peak anymore. They are just not hoarding oil at these prices. Even the discounts from Iran and Venezuela aren't as attractive as they used to be.
@Samir_Madani -- Mon Sep 27 09:23:13 +0000 2021
Oil is the one commodity that can flip overnight because it is driven by a cartel of nations that represent nearly 2/3rds of the total global output. With commodity prices overheating, the costs of living outpace income. That is a major concern for the state of global economy.
@Samir_Madani -- Mon Sep 27 09:16:35 +0000 2021
Last Friday I put in an order to exit my energy mutual fund. It should take effect by end of today. I feel that the narrative is now getting too crowded on the buy side of oil. I bought in during March 2020 when it was too crowded on the sell side. Always remember OPEC+. #OOTT https://t.co/CDCNuFNbcJ
