    Dan McLaughlin Retweeted Jonathan Chait

    Funny, I don't recall Chait ascribing Kevin Williamson's view of Donald Trump and his voters to the entire magazine.https://twitter.com/jonathanchait/status/1379835574320783367 …

    I’ve seen National Review’s most recent column arguing for winnowing the electorate of “unqualified voters” is getting attention. I’ve been writing on this subject for a while, and wanted to collect some strands in a thread:

        My own view of who should not vote is much more modest, and does not involve the government in trying to prevent anyone from voting, no matter how foolishly.https://www.nationalreview.com/2021/03/not-everyone-should-be-made-to-vote/ …

        Chait’s tweets paint a thru line at your publication from 1965 forward to this week, yet you’re pretending he is only talking about one piece from this week? How bizarre, Dan.

        funny, I do recall William Buckley having hot takes on voting rights in @NRO before Kevin Williamson was born if you believe NR is reborn pure and pristine every day, as you seem to be doing, consider if that's consistent with orthodox theology

        This would be an interesting point if this was the only instance of an NR piece arguing for reduced democracy. But it is part of a long line of such thought in NR, making this a very silly tweet.

        It is if you think the republic belongs to all citizens as opposed to rich white men.
