Trump didn’t say if “they” will change the name of Pennsylvania to Wawasylvania or Sheetzsylvania…

Fabulous.

I think Zimmer is absolutely right, btw.

But sure, go ahead and write about how old Biden is.

Not to take anything away from how shocking it is, or ought to be, that the nominee-apparent of one of our two main political parties is openly talking about dismantling our cornerstone alliance, but if we want to talk about cognitive fitness, let’s also note that the dumb orange sonovabitch still thinks the NATO defense budget target is money that the other members owe us? Like it’s protection money or something.

He literally learned nothing about how this stuff works since 2016.

You are right on. TDFG thinks we and he should get paid directly to remain in NATO. The MSM is deliberately muddying that by implying TDFG just wants NATO members to fully fund their militaries. Carrying TDFG’s water.

The more reputable sites are correcting his framing of the NATO spending. I’ve read that in the NYT reporting, and here’s the opening paragraphs of the NPR report on it:

CONWAY, S.C. – Former President Donald Trump said America would not defend NATO allies against Russia if they did not meet his definition of contributing enough defense spending, threatening to upend the alliance if elected president again in 2024.

Trump has long criticized defense spending by other NATO member countries and has long falsely suggested there are unpaid balances owed by allies, but Saturday’s remarks during a campaign rally in Conway, S.C., went a step further as he suggested Russia should attack allies that are “delinquent” with contributions.

If they’re supporting him in any way, shape or form, I hope they withdraw their support immediately.

To sully JFK’s memory with this nonsense is beyond the pale.

That is, of course, a lie.

The part about not coordinating, not the part about not being involved in the ad. I doubt he lets anything interrupt his workout schedule.

A State Supreme Court Just Issued Another Devastating Rebuke of the U.S. Supreme Court

Cue faux Republicans to begin crowing about a unworkable mix of 50 different laws.

If only there was some “supreme court” that gave non-partisan guidance on how federal laws should be applied in all 50 states…

The DC press displays its collective amnesia on the Biden misstatements. Josh’s blog yesterday highlighted Jon Alter’s column about how Biden has been famous for over forty years of mixing up names and dates. Hurl’s bullshit was just that, bullshit.

Not withdrawing or not supporting.

Sounds like, from some of the earlier intervening posts, it’s not supporting.

This will continue until the election.

Taylor will live, rent-free, in his head, making him say crazier and crazier things.

Nobody here can even predict how ridiculous he will get.

He will end up asking for her endorsement, but she will continue to ignore him.

Fear of prison, mixed with fear of bankruptcy, mixed with jealousy of female pop-stars will continue to grind him to dust.
