Building a career out of lies -

It's really a very Trumpist personality-cult thing to do.

Why the defenders of minority rule really don't like
progress and economic growth -

https://www.latimes.com/politics/story/2023-07-23/how-democrats-won-the-west-and-reshaped-presidential-politics-new-mexico

New people bring new ideas.  It was so even in Hamilton's
day - Southern planters could see that his ideas for
industrialization were not in their interest.

How to get things done in Congress -

How the outsiders become insiders and part of the
establishment.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/07/15/marjorie-taylor-greene-congress

Be part of the Freischütz caucus or part of the conference
committee?     After a while the answer becomes clear.

Manchin's not going to pull any votes from the Trump base,
even if he runs on a coal platform.       The best Manchin
can do is cause the election to go to the House, so Trump
can make a corrupt bargain.

RFK Jr alienates the Jewish vote.

https://www.cnn.com/2023/07/15/politics/rfk-jr-covid-jewish-groups/index.html

It's hard to see who would fund him, except perhaps Putin.

Do you want to talk about politics to ANY stranger who
comes to your door?     ESPECIALLY a paid salesman from
out of state?

All paid political operators should be required to wear
a scarlet letter.

No Labels centrist split-ticket - the right idea at the
wrong time.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/07/14/no-labels-presidential-election-2024/

In 2024, a third party candidate might well result in an
outright Trump victory or cause the election to go to the
House -  leading to another Corrupt Bargain at best.

The presidential candidates with no hope of success stay
in the longest!

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/06/20/republican-primary-candidate-drop-out/

They've already lost the race, but they can still win
publicity!   Meanwhile Trump won't promise to appear in
debates or the endorse the GOP candidate if not Trump.

Manchin has no national constituency.       And his ties
to coal and oil aren't going to help him get one.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/05/11/manchin-third-party/

He might be able to keep his Senate seat is he stays a
conservative Democrat.     Anything else looks like a
dead end.
