color or LGBTQ. All right, that would be a 2019 conversation. Or Biden is just the most qualified, most likely to win, and he picks whoever is the most qualified to be vice president and you don't care what that person is. You just don't care. It's just not part of the conversation. That would feel like 2019. But what doesn't feel like 2019 is let's run an old white guy and that will make the base happy by throwing the vice presidency just to give them a little treat. That just doesn't feel like 2019, does it? It just doesn't sit right. I don't know. I don't think it'll work with his base either. So he's got a real problem because whichever way he goes with a vice presidential conversation it's gonna look half wrong to half the people. There's no clean win there.

All right, let's talk about conservatives being kicked off of social media platforms. Have we not seen several conservatives who were temporarily suspended get back on Twitter? We've seen that, right? So who saw Carpe Donktum? He had a brief suspension. It was reversed and he's back. We saw that with James Woods. His tweet was an Emerson quote: "Hang them all." But all he had to do was delete that quote or I imagine Twitter would have been fine if he did the quote again but added in the context. If all he did was delete the original quote and retweeted it with "I was trying, you know, I meant to quote Emerson. I don't mean literally hanging anybody." He could have made the same statement but in a clearer way and would have totally been back on Twitter if he wanted.

Now it turns out that James Woods has chosen to make what I would say a principled stand for free speech, meaning that he will not go back on Twitter unless he can say the tweets exactly the way he said it. I would say he's dying on the smallest little hill. So you know James Woods can do whatever he wants to do. It's his decision. So I'm not gonna second-guess it but it's a very small hill. It's not really free speech. It's about clarity. It's about saying what you mean in a clearer way. That's sort of all Twitter is asking of him, isn't it? If you think about it, is Twitter asking anything beyond "Could this be a little more clear so we know you're not asking for violence"? That doesn't feel like the biggest problem in the world. It feels like the tiniest little problem. But James Woods for whatever reason, and I'm not going to second-guess him, would like to make this a stand that he wants to take. I don't have a problem with that. It's just it's the tiniest, tiniest little problem. I personally wouldn't take a stand on such a tiny thing.

And I think there were a few other conservatives who had their bans or suspensions reversed. So the thing to look for here is the slippery slope. I always tell you there's no such thing as a slippery slope because there will be counter forces that emerge to stop things from sliding forever unless we want them to slide fore
