trump is sloppier, slower, and more uninhibited this time around, and it's having and will continue to have political consequences for him within the party, he's an asshole and a loser losing his grip, and at least *some* republicans can smell it on him

Michael Bohacek, a Republican state senator from Indiana who has a daughter with down syndrome, says he will vote against redistricting in Indiana after Trump used the word "retarded."

Would it kill somebody to say “Nancy is not stupid.” It pains me to see the WH press corps just accept the abuse. Sends the wrong image to Americans and the world IMHO.
“You’re a stupid person” — Trump lashes out at a reporter who presses him on the fact that the suspected DC shooter was actually thoroughly vetted before he was let in the US from Afghanistan

National Guard aren’t ICE or Border Patrol. They didn’t sign up looking to harass and repress people. They’re volunteers, part time, in case of emergency. They didn’t ask for this.
West Virginia National Guard shouldn’t have been deployed in Washington DC.
Victims of the shooter and the president.

As blunt as it may seem, the reality is that for Americans to have a functional domestic or international setup for them requires that they simply stop electing Republicans.

precisely my thought. the president and his dumbass republican allies put these men and women into harm’s way for a political stunt and look what has happened
Whether this was random street crime or targeted political violence, I think it was bad for the president to unnecessarily put the National Guard in harm’s way like this. They simply don’t need to be there.

Yeah Tesla is toast.
I don't see how Tesla's Model 3 can survive if Benz can offer an alternative EV this cheap, with this kind of performance, on top of the 15% tariff that it's charged in the US.
Imagine what this model does to Tesla in Europe, where Benz pays no tariffs.

The GOP entered this war under the rather childish delusion that they were going to gerrymander everyone else, and nobody was going to gerrymander them. In half a hundred places, they put their rather naive theory into operation. They sowed the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind.
