The U.S. is the only democracy in the world with:

- Lifetime terms for high court judges
- An electoral college for choosing an executive

I imagine the list of “iconic Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade performances” is short, but this has got to be up top. The big crowd energy, gold confetti, Ken Jeong losing his mind for “his girls,” and Audrey Chu looking like a freakin’ Sith Lord. Absolutely amazing.

A former Fetterman advisor texted me: “I think what comes across is the reality of who he is, which is a petulant child who never became a man and is always the victim of his own narrative—even though he’s never had a real job and lives off his dad’s money. It's all pretty sad and pathetic."

Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."
