If you aren't, it was their "basic rationality" that got us into Vietnam. And couldn't win. And couldn't get us out again.I think @ThePlumLineGS' description of the shit-show that was the Chris Wray hearing is right on.

But I'm not as sanguine as he is that the chaos will fail. What if the target isn't Joe Biden but basic rationality?https://t.co/iY3FSJBDy1 pic.twitter.com/P5cDan16hW
I've never had that much faith in "basic rationality" ever since. Especially since the term is so poorly defined and so often refers to "me and mine." Like the "Best and the Brightest," who had a hard time reconciling their "basic rationality" with, well....reality.
