🚨OVERTIME🚨
How The Christian Post sold its soul for Trump. A long read from Bulwark contributor Napp Nazworth.
Let’s make pasta. I didn’t go for this tonight, we ordered in from the regional chain “Pasta House” but a worthwhile read on why going the extra mile for dinner often pays off.
More on St. Louis style pizza. I got a lot of feedback in the last 24 hours on my bit about St. Louis cuisine. So, to further indulge you, here’s a very interesting interview with one of the godfathers of St. Louis pizza: Mike Talayna. Coincidentally, I also worked at Rossino’s by St. Louis U, considered the originator of the type of pizza many have come to know and love (or hate.)
The Trump Campaign is extremely online. A worthwhile read from Jane Coaston. Here’s a taste:
The Extremely Online conservative is not any more reflective of the priorities of the voting public than the Extremely Online left was at times in the Democratic primary. And Trump, who once touted his ability to speak for those often ignored by elites on Twitter, is now the most online politician of them all.
Was Rudy really tucking in his shirt? My friend Andrew Beaujon at Washingtonian, who has watched the movie, argues yes. But there’s more to it than that.
That’s it for me today. We’ll see you tonight on the post-debate livestream. If you’re not a member of Bulwark+ there’s still time to join!
