Noting that all this hullabaloo is over fewer than 100,000 voters in the midst of a deep freeze in Iowa… in a country of 330 million plus people.

Iowa: Note the aggressive term Trump 'fights' for people like me. Again classic symptom of aggression and authoritarianism.

'Right temperament', by contrast, not so much! Even among his base.

Iowa: For Trump supporters, of course the No 1 issue is immigration. A state where the % of foreign born population has shot up from 5.2 in 2016 to ...5.4% in 2021.

Stoking 'Us-Them' fears is always the heart of authoritarian populist campaigns.

Iowa: From the CNN entrance poll.

And don't tell me that the base will desert Trump even if convicted of a crime. Nope.

Iowa: CNN entrance polls shows that there was a choice, not an echo, in Iowa.

69% of Trump supporters endorse the Big Lie about the 2020 election, compared with 5% of Haley's.

Iowa: CNN's entrance poll results of caucus voters by ideology: the Haley v. Trump contrast is just as expected.

Iowa. Preferences by age group in CNN's entrance poll: the generation gap fuelled Trump's lead.

Only 13 viewers live on X for the PBS special on Iowa election night? Sad.

Wonder how many are tuned live into the Emmys?

Useful work by Roberto Frega on trust and trustworthiness.

(Also, BTW, 'In Praise of Skepticism', unfortunately mistakenly cites coauthors!! Nope.)

'Antisemitism is a dangerous scourge. But despite the claims by some Israeli officials, it is not antisemitic to urge Israel to respect international humanitarian law or to condemn gross violations against Palestinians in Gaza & the West Bank,' Volker Türk writes in Haaretz.com.

I am grateful to Thomas Edsall for including my thoughts on U.S. democratic backsliding, along with those of many distinguished scholars.
The mood is deeply pessimistic - but with differing interpretations of the precise drivers of our contemporary discontents. nytimes.com/2024/01/10/opi…

Thomas Edsall asked a range of scholars whether the U.S. has reached a point of no return. 'The responses varied widely, but the level of shared pessimism was striking,' he writes. nyti.ms/41UZEPZ

It always blows my mind how much wider the partisan trust gap is for US media compared to the UK 🤯

Most British media is trusted (or distrusted) about equally by supporters of both major parties. That’s true of virtually no US media org.

Deeply corrosive for US society.
