As you reported Thune is a no. Lindsay Graham said it was a non starter. Johnson won't act without Trump's permission.

They seem to be stuck - won't enact the subsidies & won't kill the filibuster. They will bargain by offering a bag of beans.

This is a good thought exercise. Perpetually, the answer is "a lot". At current growth rates they would overcome the RFR+ERP hurdle. However, the history of capex expansion to this degree doesn't support "a lot" of profitability growth over the long haul for the companies doing the spending.

No doubt he's conflicted by the ethics of buying a pardon.

This is an analog of CEOs wanting full control without pesky unions or employee voice. It's the Yarvin management theory of government.

I don't think she cares whether she's right or not. Up is down.

They are using "1984" as a field manual. Noem doesn't care whether her recitation of habeas corpus is correct.

Up is down, black is white, 2+2=5 and a 9-0 loss at SCOTUS is a resounding win, habeas corpus is a right belonging to the president.
