The folks who want to be left alone are the ones who actually get most of the work done, but theyโre still mocked as drones or beavers or trolls. Thatโs bad enough, but now technology is helping the extroverts in their long twilight campaign against actually concentrating on anything.
Kevin DrumNote to conservatives: sometimes you just have to give up. Do you really care that much about killing lots of bad guys as opposed to letting them rot in prison for the rest of their lives? It might be time to let go and save your energy for other battles. This one is getting absurd.

Kevin DrumDonald Trump says he's going to change the no-guns policy at his resorts. I can't wait to see that.
Kevin Drum[Donald trump] was steamed about [Hillary] Clinton's suggestion that he might not be as rich as he says. So he ditched the email stuff and instead spend a couple of minutes defending the greatness of his income, his company, his debts, his bankers, his buildings - and then sort of forgot what he was talking about and wandered off into a riff about how terrible our infrastructure is.
Kevin DrumI think liberals should accept that if we want big programs that significantly reduce inequality - and we should - it's going to require higher taxes on everyone. The rich can certainly do more, especially given their stupendous income increases since the Reagan era, but they can't do it all.
Kevin DrumSo many theories. But all of them have one thing in common: They demonstrate that although Trump isnโt much of a businessman, he is rich enough to hire good tax attorneys who will hand over huge stacks of forms for him to sign blindly. Thatโs a helluva qualification for president, isnโt it?
