The only thing that would surprise me would be if Drumpf were to go on national television, renounce his wealth, public life, and lying ways-then spend the rest of his life in a monastery upon taking a vow of silence.

 

(I can dream, can't I?)

Remember when the police caught General John Kelly out back of the 7-11 in Shelbyville smoking crack and drinking Boone’s Farm?

I don’t.  Probably because he’s never done anything like that and he’s not an actual lowlife.

It's anecdotal, but complaints about just how toxic political ads during football games this season is something I've heard IRL and seen on FB a few times... and the Trump ads talking about trans issues have been singled out in particular.

I honestly don't get it... it wasn't that long ago that they were polling decently ahead on economic issues against Harris, and in the time that they have leaned heavily into this stuff, Harris in some recent polling has begun to pull even on economic issues. It seems like malpractice to me, it didn't work in the last midterm or off-year cycle, and yet they keep going back to the well anyway.

These rumors seem like a diversion. Until anyone reputable reports anything, if there even is anything, probably shouldn't engage

yeah, I am expecting nothing.  It's like Bowden saying that the Tigers talked to Soto's agent.

It's all Tudor Dixon and Republicans ran on in Michigan in 2022. I still remember the ad where they took Nessel mocking them out of context where she said a crossdresser in every classroom. It only worked in Dearborn. John James didn't get into the trans stuff and ran ahead of Dixon and won a district Whitmer won.
