This post by the world’s richest and most divorced man on the site he bought to promote his far right extremism is ripped straight from the Klan messaging of the 1870s or the 1915 film Birth of a Nation that inspired the Klan’s rebirth as a PR stunt/Ponzi scheme/terrorist organization in the 1920s.

Jesus, just stop. Democrats are winning now.

And if some voters feel this way about Democrats, a major reason is that THE FUCKING CONSULTANTS KEEP SAYING THE PARTY IS TOO LIBERAL AND OUT OF TOUCH. They incessantly reinforce the stereotype.

Tough Medicine for Democrats: “Too Liberal” and “Out of Touch”
Democrats are riding high after special elections, but that doesn’t mean they’re popular. Strategist Simon Bazelon has advice on what to fix.

I've probably photographed Brad Lander more than any other elected in NYC because the dude shows up. He's everywhere, he's incredibly accessible, and he genuinely loves New Yorkers. You can literally go up and talk to him whenever he shows up. Go ahead, try it!

sure looks like at the state level, Democrats have decided to win. Might be good idea for those stuck in the DC Dem strategist bubble to talk to some of them instead of just each other

I've spoken with 20 of the 25 over past year - and learned a lot. They all knock doors. Talk to actual voters

I’m sick of hearing this idiocy from Clinton-era strategists but they actually won elections at one point.

I have no idea why I’m supposed to care about this recent Yale Law grad who seems to know fuckall about politics.

Jesus Christ, public opinion is not some static thing that has to be “respected” by politicians.

Politicians should work to shape it, to make the case for their priorities and positions, to win over voters to *their* ideas not convince voters that they agree with them.
This exchange drives me nuts. Neither the interviewer nor Bazelon acknowledges that 1) abortion rights are really popular! and 2) what ICE is doing is hugely unpopular!

This isn’t about public safety - it’s about stoking fear.

Elon Musk is furious that people who were not born in America are able to cast a vote in American elections.

I wonder what his attitude is about people who were not born in America but spend billions of dollars influencing American elections.
WATCH: Elon Musk is upset that Somalian Americans in Minnesota get to vote.

The next time a small-d democratic party controls Congress, impeaching and removing Emil Bove for high crimes and misdemeanors against the Constitution needs to be on the "to-do" list.
Via MS NOW: Emil Bove is in attendance at Trump’s speech in Pennsylvania tonight.

It's really funny when the president jokes about murdering people, see.
Trump: "The problem is nobody wants to go fishing anymore. They don't want to get in boats. They don't want anything to do with boats. I think we've destroyed the boat market. Other than that it's been very effective."

Every part of this is bonkers. The intro is bonkers. The transition to his health is bonkers. The mention that other presidents didn't need cognitive exams is bonkers. The claim that this screening test is somehow hard is bonkers. The idea that criticism of him is treason is bonkers. All of it.

Couple of things here:

1. Trump says he took another cognitive test recently

2. In front of "large numbers of doctors and experts"

3. He called the examinations "long...and very boring"

4. If you're given 3 cognitive exams in one year by panels of doctors, something is VERY wrong with you

I know we’ve been talking about the 25th Amendment being invoked for years now, but we should probably be talking about it a lot more and a lot more seriously right now.

Trump's cognitive decline is so severe he cannot recognize that speaking about it in this way reveals the deficiencies
