I’m continually amazed at how organized, but invisible his enablers are. There are some serious weirdos vying for power below the press’s radar.

A timely reminder that we are not fighting the last war.
The Trumpies are organized, energized and heartily financed. They have neither boundaries nor restraints.

A second Trump is probably what’s best for the nation. Like an amputation…no one wants it but if you want to live you’d best do it. Social media and right wing cable news grasp on the political right in this country can only be fixed by demonstrably proving it to be full of shit. How better than put Trump back in the Oval? It will be painful and destructive. But if we give it a thought that’s the only way out of the political mess we’re in.

I am not sure what time zone you are in, but you should refrain from drinking alcoholic beverages early in the morning. It causes one to lose their inhibitions and accept things that are totally unacceptable (and dangerous) when sober. Just sayin’.

And in a heavily reported gaffe, Casey DeSantis, the spouse of the Florida governor, actually conveyed incorrect instructions, saying that non-Iowans can participate in the Iowa caucuses.
Narrator: It was not a gaffe, but instructions for DeSantis supporters to flood the state.

Either you’re missing the /s snark tag, or you’re parroting the Susan Sarandon line from 2016 about how the revolution can’t happen until someone like Trump burns down the country first, and we can rebuild from the ashes.
