There is no "extraordinary power" to unlock.

Simply repeating their claim that it exists doesn't make it true.

Hey, I'm happy to consider alternates to POTUS.

But an executive committee made up of state governors? Absolutely not.

Anyway, private jets are awful for the environment and should be banned from the skies. (It's also true that the people who use them are horrible and incredibly weird).

I know, I know, I know.

I've got nothing but disgust and horror.

On private jets, it is not uncommon.

Of course, this says more about the fact that passengers rich enough to fly private are commonly dumb enough to not to be able to gather their own belongings.

I hold little to no hope that this country will hold more than a handful of scapegoats accountable.

We prefer to look away. We loathe the uncomfortable conversation. We do not want the inconvenience. And we lack the patience for the process this will require.

But we can try.

The art of politics is not to do what people think. If it was, there literally wouldnโ€™t be any politics. The art of politics is to convert public opinion in the direction of your policies. Not so subordinate your policies to opinion.
