    1. What does "not looking backwards" mean when Trump's Georgia phone call took place not in the distant past but on Saturday? I mean, Trump is probably trying to steal the election even as you read this. He won't succeed but that's still bad.https://twitter.com/ericawerner/status/1346120512603377664 …

        2. I'm more than willing to say that there is zero chance Trump's clown coups will succeed. But so what? Even a buffoonish attempt to overthrow democracy is bad.https://twitter.com/normative/status/1345928403912970240 …

        If the worst consequence for trying to corruptly seize power after losing an election is that it doesn’t work, we’re essentially saying you should always try. https://twitter.com/radleybalko/status/1345848178407563265 …

        3. There are some real remedies for what Trump is doing: impeachment, censure, criminal investigation. If none is used, then the message is that trying to overthrow democracy carries no penalty. More here:https://www.thenation.com/article/politics/trump-coup-georgia-election/ …

        Democrats will only impeach for crimes coming from precogs at the PreCrime Division, a la Minority Report. If a crime has already occurred, it's too late. That's the only interpretation I can square with "a blatant crime two days ago is too far in the past to care about at all."

        Trump is working overtime on his cynicism signaling.

        It means Jeffries is out of his depth and he has to check with mommy before he can say something that hasn’t been pre approved.
