The King 👑 Is Dead 💀

 Appetizer

Trump claims he is leading in the polls with whites, blacks, women, Hispanics, Asians, and Gen Z voters.
Main course:
Trump says the Obama Administration “says it in their stats” that Trump built 500 miles of border wall when he was president.
The Obama Administration had a Time Machine? And visited the future? And used it for stats? About the future?

Trump says farmers and builders who have never cried before come up to him all the time crying and thanking him for all he’s done for them.
The RNC tries to play chef:
BIDEN: "When I left the Senate, I was able to convince Strom Thurmond to vote for the Voting Rights Act." 
Thurmond died in 2003, while Biden didn't leave the Senate until 2009. The Voting Rights Act passed in 1965, before Biden was in office.
And pulls a muscle, thinking;
Republicans don’t know that the Voting Rights Act has been re-authorized five times since its passage in 1965. Lol embarrassing.
Not surprising, really:
The RNC Research account on X, formerly known as Twitter, appears to be inadvertently boosting President Biden as a champion for democracy. The account, which often acts as a content mill for Fox News, posted a video of Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT). Murphy stated that 'people who support democracy, who support Ukraine, who support competence in government are gonna understand that the only way to preserve those things is to vote for Joe Biden,' and the RNC Research account decided to amplify that message.
Yeah, they put it in a tweet, actually. 

And things went so pear-shaped that the new rumor is Gaetz may be on the way out, not McCarthy:
As you may be aware, Gaetz is currently facing an ethics investigation into several allegations including sexual misconduct, illicit drug use, and others. Now, the rumor on Capitol Hill is that if the Ethics Committee comes back and has findings of guilt, House GOP leadership will seek to quickly expel Matt Gaetz. Such a decision would likely face little opposition from House Democrats, and only half of the House Republican Caucus would have to join this resolution.
Wonder what Trump thinks:
Trump is asked if he supports Matt Gaetz’s efforts to oust Kevin McCarthy as Speaker. He says he likes both and McCarthy said very nice things about him this morning so he doesn’t want to comment.
Still wondering. But he doesn’t sound much like a kingmaker, does he? Or like a king, either.

.@SpeakerMcCarthy is going to get his wish. I’m going to file a motion to vacate against him this week. 
If at this time next week Kevin McCarthy is still Speaker of the House, it will be because the Democrats bailed him out. He can be their Speaker, not mine.
Does Matt have the votes for someone else? Not likely. And he may gin up the votes to send him to Florida early.

And I stopped believing in Santa Claus. Silly me. 🎅
