Mikey Dense has never had the support to be a credible presidential candidate. We wouldn’t even be talking about him right now if The Fat Guy had not deep-dipped him (with Manafort’s help) to be his VP candidate. Remember that Dense was governor of Indiana at the time, and he was so reviled there that the voters were ready to kick him out of Indianapolis. He won the Iowa Caucus in 2016, but died on the vine afterwards.

Man that library board is full of something. The Library Dir. just wanted to implement a challenge process, while the board wanted her to direct the staff to just pull books willy-nilly.

We probably wouldn’t know if they did. And I don’t think they disagree on much.

If Lindz is right about a DC jury convicting any Republican of anything, I want him put on trial for impersonating an intelligent life form.

I was struck by the phrasing, “you have to go in and tell your wife…” Melania (with Baron) and Trump don’t seem to share any living places, except maybe a private dining area where they sometimes meet up. She has her living quarters and he has his.

O/T but hey, it’s Morning Memo. Christian Health Ministries has been advertising heavily on cable. They do say they “aren’t insurance” and then continue on with comparisons. And while for some it might be a good option, people need to be extremely cautious obout this option for medical coverage.

They are all contending for 2nd place - and cynically - behind closed doors hoping for Trump’s plane to auger itself into a mountainside - then they can make him a martyr … “never convicted” (ignoring the fact that the evidence is overwhelming)… and pretend to run as his vindication.

Guest article. DeSantis may have enough dark money assistance to get voters out to the primaries.

Screenshots of the “War Room” chat reviewed by Semafor included staffers praising a widely-derided and since-deleted video — originally posted on an anonymous account, “Ron DeSantis Fancams” — that included a version of the Sonnenrad, a symbol associated with Nazi Germany.
"This belongs in the Smithsonian,” wrote Kyle Lamb, the campaign’s director of research and data, before the video blew up in the campaign’s face.
If you lie down with Nazis, you end up with swastikas.

I’ve read this quote several times now, and still don’t have a clue what the hell this guy is saying. NH is a small state, but I sincerely hope he lives as far from me as possible. It’s unnerving to think that he might be standing behind me in a checkout line.

You know DeSantis’ campaign staffers giggled like schoolchildren the entire time they spent workshopping, putting together, revising, in-house testing, and finally publishing those videos. “Hehehe…we put Nazi stuff in campaign videos. We’re so cool!”
