    I always feel there is a contradiction between saying Twitter is not real life and worrying that the Dems will be derailed because they are paying too much attention to twitter.https://twitter.com/llerer/status/1195504997892538373 …

    Obama wades into the 2020 race, warning of the dangers of listening to “certain left-leaning twitter feeds” or “the activist wing of our party.” “Even as we push the envelope and we are bold in our vision we also have to be rooted in reality," he said. https://nyti.ms/2CM6Wut

        1) Twitter is not real life 2) Twitter is so powerful it can derail one of the major political parties in a democracy of 350 million. If you believe 2) you cannot also believe 1).

        No one has control, fundamentally. The ramifications of that are never allowed to sink in (in the parlance of our tweets 😉)
