The thought of Gaetz makes my skin crawl. That’s all I have to say.

My husband and I say this all the time. So glad we're old. Don't have to live through wherever this country seems to be headed. In the meantime, I'll stay engaged, keep writing letters and postcards to voters. Listening to Heather Cox Richardson's book, Democracy Awakening, I'm more aware than ever that these ideologies have always existed here. They are now being amplified by power-hungry politicians.

“ This was an interesting data point in its own right, but later that night, a MAGA strategist suggested that the bros may be on to something. This person thought Gaetz is on track to succeed Ron DeSantis in Florida and that he could become a leading GOP contender for president in 2028 or 2032. At least if Tucker doesn’t run. (On stage, Gaetz himself called for a Trump/Tucker 2024 ticket, to raucous cheers.)”

I had to stop reading for a minute and take a couple of deep breaths. What a horrible thought. I don’t know how Tim stands these things. 😬

You are brave. Or foolhardy! For one, I thank you for wading into that cesspool so I don’t have to. Now please share your cleansing after cesspool ritual!

Just curious from the photos - the event doesn’t look crowded. Was that the case?

I’m glad you’re covering MAGA world so we don’t have to. This is a loathsome bunch of bottom feeders indeed.

I love the video where you proclaim Joe Biden as the President. Amazing to be in the room with those guys!

Always bet on MAGA's preference for the lowest of lowest common denominator, e.g., Stefanik, Bobert, Greene, and, of course, Matt Gaetz, . In parting, if a dumb fence post could be a politician, it would be a Matt Gaetz.

Well, I’m raising a toast to the Colorado Supreme Court, who just ruled that Trump can't appear on the Presidential primary ballot, because he engaged in the insurrection.
