This is close to my ideal of what a 'rational discussion' should look like. Two very smart people with different perspectives and good motivation. If we put shit like this on television it might foment a revolution. And btw, it makes me lust for a sit down between John and a guy like David Frum!
On you being surprised that judicial held up — this is great of course, but it's because most of the judges are coming from the "more lawful" times. MAGA is poisoning this well too, so the forecast is unclear. The technical comparison I think about is that the rule of law in this country is the moving average of the lawfulness of the particular epochs (presidential terms).
Fabulous conversation. Would love to hear you two talk more deeply about Israel
