More From Nate Silver

So you think that you're a failure, do you? well, you probably are. what's wrong with that? in the first place, if you've any sense at all you must have learned by now that we pay just as dearly for our triumphs as we do for our defeats. go ahead and fail. but fail with wit, fail with grace, fail with style. a mediocre failure is as insufferable as a mediocre success. embrace failure! seek it out. learn to love it. that may be the only way any of us will ever be free.

The iron throne is mine by rights. all those who deny that are my foes." "the whole of the realm denies it, brother," said renley. "old men deny it with their death rattle, and unborn children deny it in their mothers' wombs. they deny it in dorne and they deny it on the wall. no one wants you for their king. sorry.

Failure's relative. i've always felt, even early on, if i lose the freedom to fail, something's not right about that. it's how you treat failure, too. there's something to learn from it. i've had movies that have failed colossally, so you kind of analyze your failures: what kind of failure was it? a failure because it's misunderstood by others? a failure because you misunderstood it yourself?
Misunderstood Kind Failing
On the table, donald trump: i'm gonna let obamacare fail. i am going to let it fail. i am not gonna own this. this is an utter failure, utter disaster. i've tried. i worked with people. obviously we don't have enough republicans who want to vote this way. we need more republicans in 2018, but i'm gonna let it fail 'cause i am not owning this baby. so failure, which is obamacare, stays in place with all of its problems, expenses, failures versus repealing it. i'm telling you, the most painful choice here is leaving obamacare in place.
