Greg Dworkin somehow helps by towing in not one, but two Rafts O\u2019 Stories\u2122, a plethora of polls, and an excrement of X posts. Polls are often wrong, usually worthless, yet are as valuable as horoscopes when their forecast contains flattery. BTW, Dems are ahead! All over the place! When it\u2019s policy vs. \u201celectability\u201d, pollsters say their polls are polling great. Data centers poll lower than Thanksgiving. It\u2019s Centrist vs Progressive for the Democratic party, which wouldn\u2019t be a contest if it was on policy\u2026 nor is it a contest when it comes to electability. Gop policy on Medicaid would ruin their electability if anyone were to find out about it. As would their policies about anything, really. That\u2019s why Gops are concentrating on electability, especially on reducing Democratic electability, to offset their voters who lost faces to leopards. Gops want to make 2020 great again. Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani \u52bf\u5934! Donald K. Trump\u2019s war with Iran is going so well that he\u2019s thinking of making the Strait of Hormuz our 51st state. Donald wishes his war would just go on forever, especially for the Navy. It\u2019s too bad that the Navy\u2019s base in Bahrain was bombed. Maybe if we bombed Oman, it would fix it? Trump remembered that South Korea pissed him off that one time, so maybe he\u2019ll just let North Korea rough them up a little. After all, what has North Korea ever done to us? Donald can\u2019t have E. Jean Carroll\u2019s $5 Million. Shut up, Donald. Trump\u2019s mouthpiece Todd Blanche won\u2019t shut up.
