Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

      Does that game theory tweet storm ever get around to game theory?

      Because even pretending that assessment is entirely correct it doesn't explain path forward or inaction.

      Maybe America's problem is really that we think we're engaging in game theory but we're really just hitting OUR CAP LOCK KEY?

      Putin is a problem. By no means most urgent one. If instead of finding things we can improve we JUST HIT CAP LOCK things will get worse.

      Gonna become more urgent when he rolls into the Baltics and President Tantrum doesn't back NATO.

      Even assuming that will happen, Trump is still more immediate issue. One we have responsibility to rest of world to deal with

      If you've got any ideas on how to prevent a (mostly) legitimately elected candidate from taking office, I'm listening.

      I think we're pretty much stuck with him. We need to start thinking of Magic #s: 3 in Senate (assuming Heitkamp/Manchin stay)

          As few as one or two in Committees. There are Magic Number 3s we can try to form for a number of issues (incl Russia).

          Yeah, and we may be able to use that to stick it to Trump on Tillerson. Escalate wedging of Trump/NatSec GOPers.

          Yup. There are lots of wedges. We've got a few weeks to start building foundation for them. @bertinbertin

          .@emptywheel @bertinbertin hate him and will oppose his every step. It's not sustainable.

          It's not. But we need to work against both Pence infrastructure and Trump. They coincide in places but not all @bertinbertin
