This definitely needs more coverage. Such an apt metaphor for this presidency: promised something luxurious, delivered an industrial wasteland next door to a porn shop... And hoping their followers don't catch on to such an obvious eff up.


Best part was Rudy learning about the election being called for Joe while he was in the mic.

Digging into the sock puppet account

And now there is a video on the sock puppet account with supposedly the real person behind the account.. seems Uber fishy... regardless Twitter is having a field day

So the person posing as the sock puppet  in the now suspended account is apparently Patti Labelle’s adoptive son?  Juicy stuff happening in PA..

@danpfeiffer
People keep attributing the GOP's fealty to Trump's absurd fraud claims to cowardice and sensitivity to Trump's bruised ego. That's wrong. It is a specific political calculation that Trumpism is the best path forward for the party in Georgia and beyond
Trumpism is a billionaire-funded, racial grievance and misinformation fueled plan to implement minority rule in America. And it is here to stay because it is the only way to keep the GOP's corporate donor class and the nativist voting base together

Strong Twitter game for PA LT Governor
Fetterman, who seems like a interesting individual

Hey, Governor Patrick- it’s your counterpart in Pennsylvania. 

I’d like to collect your handsome reward for reporting voter fraud. 

I got a dude in Forty Fort, PA who tried to have his dead mom vote for Trump.

I’d like mine in Sheetz gift cards pls.

ps.  The Cowboys blow.

I think that Sheetz is more central and western PA to Wawa's Philly-centric locations.

This could cost him reëlection. Dem votes predominately on the coastal/Wawa side whereas voters in Sheetz country (sans Pittsburgh/Alleghany County) aren't voting for him anyway.

sums it up for me


Maggie Haberman@maggieNYT
“Mr. Trump is simply trying to survive from one news cycle to the next, seeing how far he can push his case against his defeat and ensure the continued support of his Republican base.”

Different people measure the quality of journalists in different ways

I'm so tired of the Maggie hate
honestly, I like a lot of her stuff, but am not so well versed to say I've read all her stuff
I think she has said favorable things of trump, but overall she has been a harsh critic, so I find this derision tiresome
...but here we are

I think that statement independent of past baggage stands


Never heard of this guy, but the British have such a way with the delivery that Americans can't even touch

Yes, I think she may be the best journalist of the Trump era.

did you forget your sarcasm font?

Didn't realize she just singed a book deal
New York Times White House reporter Maggie Haberman, has a book deal.

No. Getting people to tell you stuff and letting you publish it is real important


Bob Novak was the same...a loathsome person (not saying Maggie is) but he had all the scoops...

I do think that unlike Novak Maggie’s time is done... although if Trump is running for 2024 maybe not

I expect my opinion to end on bad takes....
