So does dry ice at negative temperatures.

Boiling blood would imply John is in space. Did he stowaway on Space-X or is he just really high?

Show me some politician from Trump’s orbit crossing him. That will be something.
Flake, Kasich, Baker–so what? It doesn’t change anything.

The alligator analogy is pretty accurate, I think.

OK …Kasich … nice opening combination - but are you in this for the distance? will you pound away relentlessly ? will you bleed for this cause?

Exactly! These people are already considered traitors to the GOP.

Kasich is that old rare and sort of sad Reaganite. best exemplified by David Stockman. So earnest and optimistic that Conservatism and markets were going to make the world a great place. There is a touching naivete about these guys that leaves me sad.

Kasich…probably shooting for an ambassadorship to Croatia when all is said and done. Ugh.

Nicely stated John. Now are you ready to put up? The Lincoln Project would put you to work. What’re you made of?

Same GOP deflection of the Orange Menace problem, different dance.

Cue Susy “Pivot” Collins to opine shortly.

To me, he’s always been dour and a sourpuss from a Republican perspective. He’s always been a scold of one sort or another. Just glad its aimed at his own party but he’s not above giving the same stinky rebuke to those on the left whenever it suits him.

David Jolly was one of the very few Republicans who got it right and said what had to be said: https://mobile.twitter.com/DeadlineWH/status/1191487380190093313

I know, I just don’t think the Dems care for him much either. He’s a fair-weather friend, but scarcely. He’s also very mercurial and can change on a dime.

The alligator is eating all my food, hogging the bathroom, and sneezing and hacking all over the place without a mask. It needs to go.

I have never bought into any of this “cult of personality” crap. I cannot think of a single GOP or Executive Branch supporter of Donald, or any of his entire family or personal connections that have any charismatic personality whotsoever. It’s all bullshit. The attraction to this maladministration and its personnel is solely a shared hatred and fear of women, POC, people with education and intelligence, LGBT+ any non-traditional sexual ID or attraction, foreigners of any stripe (please add other GOP targets here). It is pretty simple, really. It’s all about the terrifying prospect of the decline of the authority of the white, male-dominated aristocracy.

Just my humble opinion.
