Our best chance with J.D. Vance is that one day at Mar-a-Lago Trump dares him to hold his breath underwater for five minutes or swallow a golf ball or something, you know because he’ll do it and that’s hilarious, and the problem takes care of itself.

“In the name of unity, stop taking issue with Jan. 6” is “when you say it’s wrong that I hit you, you’re tearing this family apart” on a national scale.

Trump just named as his #2 a guy who called for insurrection charges against a journalist for writing an op-ed & wants to censor academics and seize the assets of nonprofits he opposes. The "free speech" brigades haven't said a goddamn thing. And their benefactor just pledged $150m to elect him.

The meekest immigrant doing the most humbling manual labor is just trying to improve his life and support his family. It’s the same reason Vance degrades himself before a man he knows is a fraud, and who seems to enjoy humiliating him. The difference is that there’s honor in manual labor.
I oppose this worldview—this theory of America—with every fiber of my being.

If a Democrat had been the target of an assassination attempt, can anyone plausibly imagine a Trump statement that did not denigrate and equivocate?

If we're moving straight from "Biden too old" to "RFK Jr. is serial sexual abuser" without taking a good hard look at how Trump is basically the same age as Biden and has enough sexual assaults to make Caligula blush, I'm going to climb a tree and throw rocks at cars.

Project 2025 authors at the Heritage Foundation are already alleging the next election will be stolen, claiming any result other than a Trump victory in November will have been the result of fraud and will be challenged.

Granted, as a straight white lady, I’d be extremely far down the list, but the notion that my not-terribly-steamy romances would be bannable and prosecutable as porn in a Project2025 world is one of those “laugh hysterically while they’re dragging you away” things.
I'm certain the P2025 position was not fully explained. They don't want to outlaw porn, they want to criminalize it. And they say anything LGBTQ+ related is porn. Gay? You're a criminal, go to prison. Trans? Prison. Dad's Playboy collection in the attic? Prison.

"Why won't the media move on from the topic of Biden's age?" asks the media.

There’s a presidential candidate who organized a coup on live TV and was recently convicted of dozens of felonies for something entirely separate, and the political system is demanding his opponent step down.
