Let them bleat. If this didn't exist there would be some other stupid made up nonsense.
    You are arguing something I am not and that is the problem. (Likely on my end but also because I think we are getting stuck think every problem is a 4 alarm fire which I am not saying at all) I literally said it is not the same universe and that they need to keep on doing what they are doing. But if we pretend it is not a story we are lying to ourselves. 4 years ago no one cares but this is to soon after a massive document debacle there is no way it was going to just be ignored and it really shouldn't be. Nothing will come of it though because they're is no there there.

    The Dems are doing the right thing and that is why in 2 months this will not be a story. Right now it is so just let it play out. The Right Wingers will whine like they always do and people with brains will see it for what it is. That is how you deal with this.

    Its a matter of degrees. Trump was an 11...this is a 3. The only way it likely rises above that is if the Dems screw up which they are not doing. Be open, be forthright and it will work out.

      But thank you for the thought.

      Remember the rule of mass democracy: no one anyone has heard of will last more than three generations (sorry Beatles, Freud, and Foucault). No one anyone knows will ever do anything that matters. The people who will be remembered are at least 3 standard deviations beyond anything that will ever hit media.
      You’ve talked about her crush on him. He said something half competent.

        I think I see what you're saying, and in that case I more or less agree, perhaps less so on specifics but whatevs on that.

            • Merrick Garland has his out now. There is no way in hell Trump gets indicted for anything.

                        Evangelical leaders once played a critical role in building the coalition that won Donald Trump the presidency. Today, however, finds Trump now lashing out at the same group he once relied on as many faith leaders have chosen to remain on the sidelines in the early stages of his third bid for the White House.

                        Appearing on Real America's Voice on Monday, Trump told The Water Cooler host David Brody he believed evangelical leaders were being disloyal to his cause after reports of faith leaders who once supported him who are now reluctant to back him ahead of the 2024 election.

                        This, even after he delivered on promises to seat Supreme Court justices willing to support evangelicals' mission to overturn federal protections for abortion as well as initiatives like expanding "school choice," which would allow public dollars to flow into private and religious academic institutions.

                        "That's a sign of disloyalty," Trump said. "There's great disloyalty in the world of politics and that's a sign of disloyalty because nobody, as you know...has ever done more for [the] right to life than Donald Trump. Three Supreme Court justices and they all voted [to overturn Roe v. Wade]...they won, they finally won!"

                        • The Jesus freaks got their judges and they got Roe overturned. That's all they ever wanted and he delivered for them. Now they can discard him and all of his baggage they had to cravenly overlook just to get their pet issue addressed.

                              Apparently deleted as nothing is coming up. What did he say?

                              Found articles about it. Repeating the "litter boxes in classrooms" nonsense. I've never paid attention to him so was unaware he is a bigot as well. The derp is strong with him. Surprised he still has a job on tv.
