Great @jmart jam.

The craziest thing you can say on Washington cocktail/diplo circuit right now?

That you think Biden will win.

CW in DC so much favors DJT, that few can see what data clearly shows:

A coin-toss race right now & Biden is gaining. https://t.co/fiPC5lMjEG

Of course they do. Probably because Trump is campaigning so hard. And has so much time to campaign, to boot.

Next week begins a daily ritual where a candidate who has averaged 1 campaign event and 6 golf outings a week for 18 months complains bitterly that his trial is preventing him from campaigning even though it will be held 4 days a week from 9-5.

Or because of this:

Just a hunch, but I’m going to say that on Trump’s trip to PA today he will visit a restaurant for a 10 min photo op, wear a blue suit, white shirt and red tie, give the exact same speech he’s given for 18 months, then have cops waiting on the airport tarmac for another photo op.

I’m sure his criminal trials and lack of campaign funding (it’s all going to the lawyers), won’t have any effect, either.

How could the Washington cocktail/diplo circuit be wrong?😑
