I do think that the SAT is measuring something, and that something has something to do with both natural aptitude and cultivated aptitude for academic success. But the best argument for it as a measure is that our alternatives (Extracurriculars! Essays! Leadership potential! Vibes!) are much worse.

We’re playing this game where everyone knows Trump knew but Republicans are like “Betcha can’t prove it, though!” And then we have to go find direct evidence.

He knew, you know he know, they know he knew, he knows he knew. Everyone knows. They just don’t think they have to care unless it’s proven.
