How many? Zero? Zero sounds about right.

My argument that Ds best bet is to present the GOP as stark raving mad is looking awfully strong right now.

A) No, it isn’t the Democrats who are in trouble in 2024; or probably in 2022.

B) It’s been done. Not really the silver bullet it appears to be.

Thanks, Joe!

COVID-19 is infecting teachers, bus drivers and staff at unprecedented rates that may continue to rise.

School closures are affecting all parts of the state.

And many schools that have avoided closures are still facing widespread employee shortages. https://t.co/OILz1ZzUo5

Thanks, Greg!

how interviewers don't confront every R they have on with a clip of this insanity and ask how in the world they can follow Trump speaks to their lack of zeal for truthtelling and indifference to democracy

Pretty sure Steve Inskeep tried that and Trump lasted 9 minutes. If you drive off all the GOPers, are you “objective,” or partisan? Of course, as a journalist, are you devoted to the truth? Or your reputation for “objectivity”?

How’s that workin’ for ya? And who prominently displays a plaque quoting his own words? Trump’s not the only narcissist in this crowd.

Donald Trump tonight says Jan 6 defendants “are living in hell”

“They’re being hounded … the showers are disgusting. The bathrooms are horrible… if we think they’re innocent, we should help them defend themselves”

“They’re being persecuted”

Is this the same guy who thought hanging was too good for the “Central Park Seven”? And he’s so much as visited the prisoners? Anyway, rich man, you go first. Put your money where your mouth is.

Trump just referred to the Jan. 6 arrestees as "political prisoners." Gets very muted response from the AZ crowd, so he turns to Antifa, which gets a little more reaction but not much more.
