@richjenkins8794 "Zeihan on politics" is a fascinating insight into the assumptions and priorities of our ruling class.

@brianzembruski5485 i suspect it will be a party-line ruling, 6-3.

So Peter, what has Trump been convicted of again? Didn't he get acquitted by the Senate when he was impeached over this?

Peter, are you aware of something called a "SuperPAC"? Big money has not left politics. You're right about the Information Revolution, though. The only experts left are the ones (such as yourself) who can make their case directly to whatever population is interested in their area of expertise. The electorate is going to be much better informed, much better able to make decisions, and centralized decision-makers (such as the deplorable Anthony Fauci) are going to be sidelined, along with the executive agencies themselves.

@lectorintellegat He's again speaking according to the assumptions and preferences of his class -- the Washington Elites. This the second-most interesting reason to listen to him (the first being his data analyses, which are interesting whether they're right or not.) He talks and talks and talks, and doesn't pay much mind to what the kind of "Wait, what??" moments he creates in normal Americans.

@peetky8645 A "sensible" alternative to Biden? What, like Gavin Newsom, destroyer of San Francisco and California? Anyone who calls him "electable" is showing just how much contempt they have, for elections. The Democrats have shown themselves to be absolutely unable to produce a "sensible" candidate through their primary process. Can you really claim that Biden's terrible performance has been unexpectedly bad? Their process so heavyhandedly eliminates popular alternative candidates that any "sensible" candidate probably wouldn't bother to run in the first place.

"Wildly, wildly unpopular!" -- Driving through New Hampshire, you see a LOT of "Trump 2024" signs in people's yards. You see a number of Vivek signs, the occasional Marianne Williamson or RFK Jr. sign, and a scattering of Nikki Haley signs (on lots with derelict houses). You see absolutely NO Biden / Harris signs. "Unpopular" in Joe Biden's case does not equal "unpopular" in Trump's case.

"The Supreme Court should not intervene in legislation because the legislatures are elected and therefore the voice of the people" If the voice of the people is the primary good here, then obviously choosing to allow the people to speak by allowing someone on a ballot is the obvious decision.
