I was too pithy. I didn’t mean Lee was the spinner. MAGA will take facts and spin them to suit their narrative.

Never let facts get in the way of a good spin.

Let's not lose sight of this: DJT has lost all his court cases since leaving office. Not. One. Win. Bodes well for the next cases.

A jury of 12 found the courage to do what Congress failed to do twice: Tell the truth about DJT.

My take is that you’ve named half of the issue. The other is an exaggerated sense of entitlement. Freedom, you know.

This would look better on a messy bed.

Must win.

… as the Christians in Grand Rapids cheered. sick

No more Craig Monroe.

Little known fact: the DJT Version Lee Greenwood edition smells like sulfur.

Motivating voters is more attainable than changing minds at this point. Do both, but emphasize motivation.

Did you leave out the last step: An actual bloodbath ensues? (Which we will be told is nothing more than tourists, or false flag antifa ops, or...) We've lost the capacity for outrage. And we might pay the price.

To be clear, I don’t think Lara or anyone in the MAGAverse cares about blasphemy.

This is sort of a real thing. Jesus didn’t say this. It’s an inference from a number of Bible figures who received endowment from the Lord upon their calling to special tasks. Moses, Isaiah, Peter…. However, it begs the question of what exactly God wants done. It’s an impossible stretch at best, blasphemy at worst, for Lara to infer this is the Lord’s agenda.

When he tells you how dumb he is, believe him.

“I am today suspending my campaign… I will not stop now.” - Ron DeSantis Putting the “guber” back in all things gubernatorial. (I know he is saying he will not stop keeping promises. The juxtaposition is really bad speechifying.)

A HyVee bag, no less. Nice touch. I caucused last night. The Trump "victory" is overdone. I was encouraged by how many spoke up to call out Trump's broken promises, crime, petulance, etc. Largely it's the gung-ho types who caucus. "Thoughtful" is not an adjective I'd use to describe most attendees. I went to cast my tiny protest vote. Had to register Republican to do it. I'll un-register next month. And "election security" is a farce at a caucus. Fraud would be so easy.

You’ve not heard Mark Levin? I envy our innocence. Limbaugh was comedy at first. Then George HW Bush invited him to the White House. Rush’s change was palpable and immediate. He took himself seriously, duped by his own scam.

I agree with both takes. Still, running for the country’s highest office, how does the DeSantis campaign not walk that back, and quickly? I still resent this. So badly handled on so many levels.

As a registered voter in the State of Iowa, I resent this.

With a “friend” like that, Pence needs no enemy.

Biden won as the alternative to Trump, hardly on his own merits. Biden can’t count on that calculus a second time. Too few remember how truly awful Trump’s first term was. Too many are enamored with the strongman Trump persona when contrasted with Biden’s perceived weakness.

How many know what a reflexive pronoun is?

And you didn’t say hello?

This is a non-story. Sioux City and Sioux Falls are constantly confused. This was the most reasonable part of Trump’s stump speech.
