VA-Gov: Virginia GOP Picks Their Nominee, Trump Gives Him The Kiss Of Death

So this happened yesterday: Glenn Youngkin, a wealthy first-time candidate who walked a line between his party’s Trump-centric base and appeals to business interests, won the Republican nomination for governor of Virginia on Monday.

If the previous guy doesn’t run, the 2024 POTUS field seems “wide-open” with dark horses, stalking horses, mudders, and nags. With a seven figure advance, the Pence memoir is going to need a lot of bulk purchasers. And we know how reliable John Bolton’s thinking has been. John Bolton, Donald...

Trump COVID19 Presser needs fact-checks as he dismantles the national pandemic preparation system

Trump’s Katrina is coming. The global economy will be making a downturn with the coronavirus COVID-19. Trump just had another lie-filled presser claiming it will all get better and that there will soon be a vaccine (experts say 1-2 years away). Daniel Dale does another tweet thread. x Trump says he's...

#MeToo Harvey Weinstein guilty on 2 of 5 counts

Weinstein was remanded into custody. He also will have to be transported to stand trial in Los Angeles. Harvey Weinstein was convicted of rape and a criminal sexual act in New York, more than two years after allegations against the Hollywood power broker sparked the #MeToo movement. Weinstein, 67, could...

It's a Friedman Unit Election: Bloomberg has the 'Right Stuff'

A 2005 picture of NY Times columnist Thomas L. Friedman.

Not having listened to a random taxi driver, Thomas Friedman comes out for the anti-Bernie ‘radical middle’, because money talks at least for six months. As Larry Diamond, editor of The Journal of Democracy, pointed out to me, several studies he’s been publishing show that the best way to defeat illiberal populism...

Bernie versus Bloomberg: could super-Tuesday become stupid-Tuesday

So many different games of the middling sort. From Nikki Haley invoking “liberal socialist” to what ever counts as appeals to “moderates”. Moderates’ fear of extremism and controversy will get more complicated as 2016 will get revisited by the prospect of a contested convention. Salt’s granularity gets more complex rather...

Trump's press flak proves again that he's an idiot: Hogan “Hero” Gidley

As Trump now claims there were four rather than one embassy under imminent attack, the Trump press disinformation operation continues. Hogan Gidley was perhaps bored with telling the press when Trump golf outings would happen and decided to advance the latest GOP talking point with a tweet. Because aren’t all...

Meanwhile, Trump’s obvious mental deterioration has just made his erratic behavior...
