Trump's rant today from Trump Tower included a rant against immigrants - those from South America, Africa, Asia, and the Middle East.

Immigration and border security is all he has right now. Oh, and racism. He is leaning into that one.

Nate Silver is back today arguing for Biden to step down in August.

And a huge shit show over a Simon Rosenberg interview. All kinds of pollsters jumping into the fray.

All of it just seems so disingenuous. The chaos if Biden stepped down in August. And Nate Silver would love it.

He is just so gross.

"We can't let him pull off this fraud as being a strong man as opposed to a weak man." - Simon Rosenberg

This comment is in a segment about brand architecture.

"We cannot obey advance. We cannot allow their attempt to spook us into believing that they're going to win this election. There is nothing that we can do."

Trump must appear strong, and many others need this election to be a horserace.

Lucy Caldwell, a Never Trumper, has repeatedly warned about donating to campaigns that are unwinnable. She points to Marcus Flowers, the Democrat who challenged MTG. He collected a ton of $$ and was never going to win.

She recently encouraged people to start donating to campaigns now. She said it helps with staffing and building out the campaign as they don't need to guess about what $$ is coming later this summer.

Here are 11 Democratic congressional candidates that can win.

No way Trump is showing up.

Nate Silver needs to fuck off.

There is no way that Trump is going to step foot on the debate stage. Sean Hannity lost his mind tonight.

Ingraham was saying that Trump could handle Biden. Trump just needs to remain calm and let Biden ramble. I think Hannity understands that unless Biden completely screws up, one of their last remaining narratives is gone.

Trump also needs chaos to prevent any discussion about policy.

And now Laura Ingraham is providing her insight into the debate schedule:

All Donald Trump needs to do is stay calm. Stay calm through the entire debate, and let...

Stop right there, Laura. 😂 😂 😂

According to Nate Silver, the Biden WH may have moved up the Senate to June so if Biden screws up, he can step down and pull the Ezra Klein emergency plan of nominating someone else.

Nate Silver is now NYTing.

"The White House pulled off a great bluff. But they hold a bad hand, and today's debate gambit reveals it."

Why Biden's winning strategy is bad for Biden.

And things have started...

In WV: No surprise that Trump and Biden immediately were the projected winners.

In Wyoming County, Haley is only pulling 4.9%. What is with Wyomings?

MD: Too early to call. But I'm going to go out on a limb and say Trump and Biden. 😂

NE: Haley is already pulling over 25% with 17% of the vote counted.

Ruben Gallego is a great candidate, and Kari Lake is not.

"In Washington, Republicans say there are more appealing Senate races on which to focus their limited resources. And in Arizona, they are increasingly warning that Lake’s divisive persona and instinct for provocation could sabotage them yet again."

When the GOP moves out of a state to focus efforts elsewhere, Trump's numbers will take a hit.

Yesterday, I was told by my son's teacher that he got upset when another child answered the classroom door as he was the door monitor. My son said that he hated the fucking school and disrupted the class.

He not only got in trouble for this at home, but he had to sit in the office and miss two recesses today.

The story didn't end here, however. I went to school to pick him up today, and I saw several kids walking around with tiny pots with marigolds. I immediately realized these were Mother's Day gifts. We don't celebrate Mother's Day. Too hard on my son. He was adopted from foster care, and he is working through a lot with his biological mother.

The teacher handed me the citation from the day before. No big deal.

Then I saw one of my son's classmates with a potted marigold. And I realized what happened. I asked the classmate when they made the gift, and he said yesterday.

So, I went to talk to his teacher and aide. Yep, the outburst happened after they made Mother's Day gifts, and...

The Democratic Party is hiring!

And it is interesting to see in which states this hiring is occurring.

Florida has eight jobs listed, and Ohio has 14.

Virginia and Oklahoma are next with each having four job openings.

Just overheard a pundit say that talking about the Parasite that Ate His Brain is nothing that should be discussed as it is only a distraction.

No. If we are talking about Biden's age, we need to talk about RFK Jr.'s brain parasite.

He had a parasite that ate his brain OR he thought he had a parasite that ate his brain OR he lied in a deposition to get out of owing money in his divorce proceeding.

Newsmax's interview with Noem.

She is not dealing with reality. She's frightening.

Wow. She is an extremely unserious woman. An unserious woman who will lie and kill dogs.

What a fucking nut job.
