  6. You know, the assumption that everyone should know, or needs to know, the results of the Iowa caucuses in real time is not well founded. It’s peculiar to our historical moment. What if we had to wait a day? What if we had to wait a week?

  8. 63 million sounds like a lot. Remind me—how many voted for Hillary?

  9. People were obliged to pretend to be on tenterhooks about Murkowski’s entirely fake delay in announcing her “decision,” but really. She represents 1/50 as many citizens as Feinstein. Why is she even there?

  12. “Abuse of power” is a concept entirely alien to him. He believes all power is his to abuse. And 53 GOP Senators are about to wave him onward.

    Is there no Republican senator who thinks it's crazy that the Trump legal team is on the Senate floor right now attempting to defend the facts--while refusing to allow testimony from their own administration about them?
