“In the James Bond film Quantum of Solace, a CIA honcho is criticized by a junior colleague for working with a disreputable character. ‘Yeah, you’re right,’ replies the spook. ‘We should just deal with nice people.’ Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin, Elon Musk — it’s been a terrific few weeks for Bond villains. Trump is riding high just now. He has been elected president again and did so while winning more votes overall than did his Democratic opponent, whose name escapes me just now, as, indeed, it apparently eluded millions of Democrats on Election Day. … If you believe that [Joe] Scarborough has sullied himself and MSNBC by meeting with the president-elect and then explaining the meeting to his audience, then what do you imagine the preferable alternative to be?” (11/20/24)
