And once again it works for Mike Johnson. He gets asked about Trump’s pardon of his crypto fraud guy yesterday after Trump’s 60 Minutes interview, he said he doesn’t know about it, then he DOESN’T GET ASKED a single question about it today in his press conference. bsky.app/profile/ronf...

The reason why Republicans get away with saying “I don’t anything about that” is because they usually aren’t asked about the topic again the following day or a few days later. Media has already moved on to the next illegality or abuse, and the cycle continues.

Only the crackpot MAGA ghouls immediately jump to the assumptions that no one else would come to.

They’re broken, deviant, and in many cases, probably mentally ill

Absolutely! There’s no reason a big tent can’t have a lot of different ways to win.

Don’t let the narrative get away from that

i want to repeat this: mamdani and spanberger have run similar campaigns tailored to their respective electorates and it is maddening to watch political journalists attempt to create some broad contrast where none exist

Honestly, I don't think Trump's incomprehension of political asylum has anything to do with his serious personality-disorder-related psychiatric afflictions and his seeming dementia, which both raise 25th Amendment questions. I do, however, think it reflects his utter stupidity ….

Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan.bsky.social · 16h

The president of the United States thinks asylum-seekers come from mental asylums.

He says it in almost every interview where the topic of migration comes up.

How is this not 25th Amendment territory? How is he not an embarrassment to this entire country?

I have interacted with a lot of Fox hosts and I will say that I don’t agree with this presentation. Particularly the newer crop emerged in a hermetic right-wing bubble where objectivity and homework are simply unimportant.

Mark Jacob @markjacob.bsky.social · 17h

It’s important to understand that the hosts on Fox are not this stupid. They just think their audience is, and they’ve been proven right for decades.

Yes! The Big Tent requires that people who may disagree on some things find ways to agree on the things that can win.

If you think there is only one way to win you will lose.

Pundits say the problem is that Democrats fail to represent the people—but the real problem is that our political system fails to represent the people.

Larry Glickman @larryglickman.bsky.social · 1d

The Dems have won the popular vote in presidential elections six times since 1992 by roughly 5.5%(1992), 8.5%,(1996) .5%(2000), 7.3%(2008), 4%(2012), 2%(2016),and 4.5%(2020).
In that period the GOP presidential candidate has won the popular vote twice: 2.5%(2004) and 1.5%(2024).

Larry Glickman @larryglickman.bsky.social · 2d

Douthat writes that 2024, when Harris lost by 1.5% of the popular vote, was "an ideological referendum and progressivism lost." I wonder why he didn't view the 2020 election, when Trump lost by 4.5% of the popular vote, as a far more significant loss for conservatism.

No, CBS will not settle any lawsuits against them that people may bring for editing out over half of Trump’s interview since none of you are in a position of power to approve their merger with any other media companies.
