None of this is going to turn Trump supporters into Democrats. They probably won't even stop supporting Trump.

But it takes some fight out of them, wears them out, discourages them, and sets up massive electoral wipeouts, like the one we just witnessed.

It all matters. Every little bit.

NYT owes us a front-page apology. Biden may have been tone-deaf in his comments on the economy. That is HUGELY different from Trump telling outright lies cepr.net/publications...
Being Tone Deaf Is Not the Same as Telling Outright Lies: That Should be Obvious
Media are not doing a good job explaining the ways that Trump lies about the economy.

So Matt Gaetz paid to fuck a 17 year old who was working at McDonald's and living in a homeless shelter.

Trump nominated him to be Attorney General of the United States.

“Should Schumer stay as senate minority leader?”

@aoc.bsky.social : “This is bigger than one person.”

(Per CNN Schumer is historically unpopular in the Democratic Party compared to past leaders)

About 30 % of the nation is still trying to pretend Trump is their god. As soon as really bad Epstein information comes out involving Trump they just normalize it. Half of the Christian Nationalist movement have had fathers and pastors who committed or covered up the same crimes as Trump.

Here’s the thing: Pam Bondi is not the Attorney General. She’s really not. She’s Donald Trump’s personal lawyer. That’s all.

Not only was the Times obsessed with Hillary Clinton's emails while ignoring emails about Donald Trump sent to its own reporter, but since then it has constantly attacked anyone who dared look into questions of Trump's character. All with sanctimony.

Now we know it was all a big lie.

Remember that time Trump invited the Russian Foreign Minister into the Oval Office and kicked out the American media?

So many things seem different today now that we know Jeffrey Epstein was advising Putin on how to handle Donald Trump.

If releasing the Epstein files would end your presidency, then your presidency must end. It’s that simple.

Dear Ms. Mace,
As a survivor I do support other survivors.
I do not, however, support enablers -especially those who are looking to get something in exchange for your silence…especially knowing what you know.

it's obviously a good thing that these emails are being published but ultimately everyone wringing their hands like "this time Donald is finished!" must have been in a coma for the last decade

the Republicans do not care. They support him despite the fact that he is a pdfile, it will not matter

A normal reaction to today's news, dear Nancy, would be to express shock and horror at the significant possibility that the president of the United States is a child molester.

Every time Ghislaine Maxwell lies to shield Trump, her prison digs get upgraded.

At this rate she’ll be living at the Four Seasons by Christmas.

He’s just such a horrible, horrible, stupid, ignorant psychopath who cannot fathom the concepts of honor and sacrifice. He cannot fathom a cause greater than himself. It says so much about us as a people and how broken our politics is that we put him in power.
Trump: We gave her the Presidential Medal of Freedom. It’s much better than the Congressional Medal of Honor because soldiers get the Congressional. And they’re in very bad shape because they're dead. She gets it and she's a healthy, beautiful woman. And they’re rated equal

You have to give him credit.

He's the ultimate white American idiot.

The man has experienced NOTHING in America

He's too scared to LIVE in the real America

He just eats McDonalds and watches what he thinks is life on bullshit tv dramas and FOX NEWS.

A utter waste of a life

Soft secession

Legislation creates a Federal Tax Escrow Account in the state treasury. Instead of employers forwarding collected federal taxes to Washington, they send them to the state. The state holds the money in escrow. A legislative panel reviews federal spending for constitutional compliance.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

The model of holding individual senators responsible is broken here. The retirees clearly agreed to take the fall. Which is why the nos should get no credit for voting no unless they move to oust Schumer
