His webpage bio starts "Matthew Dowd is a renowned thought-leader and writer—and one of the most creative analysts, visionaries, and strategists of his generation."
I have no idea who this guy is, but what a fucking douchebag. Anyone who uses the term "thought leader" is a piece of crap in my book.
Secondly, I normally avoid the word cuck. But.. this is like the beta cuck version of Reagan's Evil Empire speech.

p.s. Evil Empire speech, REALLY worth reading: https://voicesofdemocracy.umd.edu/reagan-evil-empire-speech-text/
That's some weapons-grade cringe.
This cringe is a fully-armed and operational battle station.
His cringe make the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs
This makes it difficult choice, in no fucking scenario would I pick Rey
Ha! I’d pick Jaina
Why do leftoids have to frame absolutely everything in terms of Harry Potter or Star Wars? Even on the brink of war they must consoom.
Because they've been stripped of their culture and history. They cannot use any traditional cannon to justify their position, so they have to use what they do know: vapid pop culture.
Brings up a question - what is American mythology? What canonical archons can we reference? The founding Fathers?
Certainly. Teddy Roosevelt and Lincoln also deserve a nod. Edison & Tesla, too. Henry Ford, warts and all. Ralph Waldo Emerson is a good one, Western Frontier mythology-- from the Old West to Mark Twain is good, HP Lovecraft's vision of New England is solid, and Gone With the Wind. Last of the Mohicans and Call of the Wild also deserve a nod.
Invoking the Minutemen and Paul Revere would have worked much better in this case. (I bet this tweeter couldn't place Lexington and Concord in history, let alone tell you what state it happened in, though.)
Empire it is, then.
They were always cooler.
These people are children.
At least it isn't the #UkraineIsGeorgeFloyd nonsense
Who the fuck even is Jyn Erso, never heard of him/her ever.
Searching online tells me they're the main character of the recent Rogue One film.
Oh the movie where EVERYONE DIES.
Really? I've never seen that movie, but now I'm interested.
Of nuwars its the only watchable one.
It’s actually pretty good. It gave me some optimism that they’d do the Star Wars franchise right.
Then the last Jedi came out…
He's gotta make sure he references Nu Star Wars and not the Problematic (TM) Star Wars.
A virtue signal on top of a virtue signal.
This is so cringe worthy that I had to search for an archive of it. https://archive.is/ZwuBn
Jyn who? Is that the ugly chubby Asian?
Prototype Rey because the Death Star plans needed to be handed over by a stronk Whamen Rebel(tm).
who is this loser and why did he think we are all too stupid to know Russia invaded a country that was just minding its own business without a shitty Star Wars reference.
Slav squat through Ukraine.
Why? The Ukrainian tanks were made in the Soviet Union at the same time as the lada
Or Luke or Han or lando…. You know the people who had actually been involved in the destruction of a Death Star
I think he’s simping tbh.
