Your Mid-Week Experiment
Welcome to your always free, reader-supported edition of The Experiment where we share great things to read, cook, listen to, and watch. As always, this bugga free.
Let’s get right to it:
Here’s Karl Rove on what Trump gets wrong about William McKinley. (free link)
OK, Jonathan Chait makes a Chaitian point in favor of the tariffs that I was prepared to hate but ended up ceding. (free link)
Then again: “It’s not the hypocrisy that bothers me; it’s the stupidity.” Right on, Hillary Clinton. (gift link)
I was absolutely prepared to hate a David Brooks essay entitled “I Should Have Seen This Coming,” but I absolutely did not. (free link)
Reliable fun.
We set up a merch table in the back where you can get T-shirts, coffee mugs, and even tote bags now. Show the world that you’re part of The Experiment.
