Dems need to start talking more about how Trump’s dementia means that he can’t distinguish his fantasies from reality. He has completely lost touch with the real world and only knows what his sycophantic courtiers are telling him.
Trump: "If you look at affordability, which they campaigned on, they lied. Because they talked about 'Oh, prices are up' -- no, prices are down under the Trump administration and they're down substantially."

I just don't think the idiots in the Trump administration realize how much normie moms are going to be incensed at their kids teachers and caregivers being carted off—especially when daycare is so damn expensive and hard to find.
It's a collision of everything people are infuriated about.

Just finished office hours and when I tell you every single student started their meeting by saying how excited they are about Zohran. It’s been a while since I’ve seen them so hopeful. One student said “I needed a win.”
