Look, the threat about the elections is effectively click bait to distract and keep Trumps name in your mouth, especially during our national time of honoring John Lewis, but there are some good barbs in this including the inevitable clip of Trump saying that he never considered delaying the election.

Until recently, I had taken as political hyperbole the Democrats’ assertion that President Trump is a fascist. But this latest tweet is fascistic and is itself grounds for the president’s immediate impeachment again by the House of Representatives and his removal from office by the Senate

Should've thought about that before you and your ilk enabled the #$!&@.

between Kasich and the Lincoln Project, Dems are pretty clear that they're willing to ally with any Republicans who repudiate Trump no matter how repugnant their views or damage they've done in the past

Can we wait until after the election before we kick people out of the winning election coalition? Kthnx.

think it's pretty unlikely they're the ones who are kicked out

After watching Bernie's 100 day video it seems to me like he (the face of progressives) is edging the movement away more than getting kicked out.

Brazilian President Bolsonaro says he has 'mold' in lungs, his wife tested positive for "mold" too which is to say she tested positive for COVID.

Rona McDanials out there tweeting that 'we need a president that can crate jobs, and Biden only created a job for Hunter'. Aside from the combo of the low brow poke at reviving the Ukraine thing, she is disingenuous about the Trump family minting coin off the presidency. Eric's wife on the campaign, Don Jr getting those $50K+ speaking gigs, then the pinnacle of this with Jared and Ivankna. That is the direct and obvious, what is going to require forensic accounting is how much money was funneled into the family coffers using his businesses to sell overpriced goods directly into the government like those non-government rates for lodging at his clubs (seems like between 6x and 15x government rate from the Per Diem rates, not counting whatever the staff bought at market rate from the restaurants + the mandatory resort fee). Then there will be the long term benefits that he will take and take.

Texas' John Cornin is reliable calling Trump's 'delay the election' a joke. That joke is thin, old and unfunny. I'd love to see a Lincoln Project mash up of the jokesters joking about Trump's jokes.

“Imagine if some greasy politician showed up at your loved one’s funeral and started throwing around stupid partisan talking points about Senate procedure,” Fox News’ Tucker Carlson said on his show Thursday night. “Can you imagine that? You would be shocked if that happened. You would probably walk out. Desecrating a funeral with campaign slogans, what kind of person would do that?”


If it was an uninvited greasy politician I wouldn't be happy. If it was an invited former president of the United States I may not mind too much.

Especially when the deceased would have agreed with every word that particular "greasy politician" spoke.

Karen Bass seems to be the "hot" name of the day for VP. Wonder if the chatter there was spurred by leaks from the Biden campaign, again to gauge public opinion.

Without a shred of irony, McEnany says the Trump administration condemns Hong Kong's decision to delay its election because it undermines democracy
