I’m intrigued and my suspicion is that this indicates that said individual is considering whether his chances of re-election improve if he breaks with the current party trajectory. The cracks are showing, y’all.

So… I have a patient who used to BEG to prick his finger when he came to my office because I let him look at his blood under my microscope. But that’s one kid out of a lot.

Of course. But kids act out under stress - even in families who are getting things right. Not arguing that they are. But it’s a stressful thing when kids feel like someone is taking their mom’s place.

I don’t have enough context to guess that. Maybe she volunteered. We don’t know. What we know is that she’s young and taking on a lot of responsibility for kids she didn’t birth. She’s allowed to choose that. And 5 yo kids whose family structure is changing may not always handle that well.
