      It's not a good one, but a left case CAN be made for Trump, which some will latch on to because the left case for HRC is so weak

      A utilitarian ends-over-means argument or an actual "he would advance leftist aims" argument?

      I think the latter argument is incredibly weak. His economic agenda is almost entirely warmed-over Reaganism.

      I don't think that's quite true, but even so, note what I said in the initial tweet: "it's not a good" argument

      Oh I don't mean to imply you believe it, just that I think the case is *even worse* than many think.

      Without endorsing it, I think there's a plausibility to the argument that many don't want to reckon with.

      I suspected that earlier in the race - thought he would pivot & try to out-populist Hillary, maybe even propose 20 MW!

      But instead he seems to have doubled down on the tax cut/deregulation agenda. Just seems like more of the same.

      I'm both disgusted at lack of imagination & relieved because departing from supply-side script might have helped him.

      GOP nominee opposing TPP (whatever credence you want to give to that opposition) isn't "more of the same"

          But it's true that in other respects he's adopted a mainline GOP econ agenda. As usual, all over the map.

          Exactly. It's a change but small potatoes compared to the hype. And it's a change with deep roots in conservatism.
