Excellent newsletter once again Bill and Andrew. Thank you. Bill, your points about the 'weird' moniker are well made. I'd also add, that the descriptor is useful in the way it brings the temperature down a bit, (much harder to blame an assassination attempt on accusations of 'being too weird for America'), it is also harder to attack for the Repubs. It's amusing to see them push back on being labelled 'weird'. Seeing them throwing a tanty like a five-year old, 'It's not fair mum, they're calling me weird! Make them stop!' However, as you say, its not enough. I am hopeful this is a warm-up act. 'Dangerously weird', is better. Charlie's 'clown with a flame-thrower' springs to mind once again.
