Big, strong men, with tears in their eyes, saying they’ve never seen an exoneration like it.

Trump on Canada Tariffs: If they do a deal with China, we will do something very substantial. We don't want China to take over Canada and if they make the deal that he's looking to make, China will take over Canada. And the first thing they're going to do, end ice hockey. pic.twitter.com/VuflsPgsdl

Before, or after, China outlaws Tim Hortons?

Reporter: Your post on ICE protests. What did you mean when you said people will suffer an equal or greater consequence?

Trump: Well, if they do anything bad to our people, they will have to suffer. pic.twitter.com/IEvs4pDMhM

He is the Avenginator.

We interrupt the delusions of Donald for this breaking news:

MAJOR UPSET ALERT: Democrat Taylor Rehmet has just been projected the winner of the Texas SD9 special election — flipping a district that went Trump +17 and hasn’t elected a Democrat since 1991.

This is a state Senate special election in Tarrant County, the largest Republican county in the country. And the least likely to elect a Democrat as dog catcher.

On Truth Social the same day, [last Friday] President Donald Trump urged Republicans to vote for Wambsganss. State and county GOP leaders have echoed that message. At a recent campaign event, Gov. Greg Abbott told CBS News Texas he is not worried about Republican turnout.

"I'm not concerned, and it does come down to what you say, and that is it's a matter of getting our voters energized," Abbott said. "That's exactly what we've been working to do. This is a voter turnout operation. We know there are more Republican voters there than Democratic voters there, and we're going to turn out all our voters, and Leigh is going to win."

Several polling locations reported long lines on Tuesday, with waits of about 45 minutes, according to the Tarrant County elections website. Locations in Keller, Southlake and North Richland Hills were among the busiest. In North Richland Hills, some voters who did not want to be identified told CBS News Texas they were willing to wait.

"About 20 minutes, 20–30 minutes," one voter said. "It'd be better if it were two minutes, but it's still your duty. I would have waited an hour, that's how important this is. I would have waited two hours."

Greg Abbott was right under ordinary circumstances. These are clearly not ordinary circumstances. And I think the Texas GOP must be scared shitless. Tarrant County is their urban stronghold.

Rehmet has to run again in November, to win a four year term. These may be very interesting times.
