Fox has forever tried to sell that a politician is good when they are a business man, an outsider, not afraid to 'speak the truth,' and tough on his critics. In reality, they just want whoever the Kochs or whoever is paying the bills wants. Trump is literally their perfect 'politician,' independent of the Koch brothers payroll.

It's like watching their bullshit narrative blow up in their face and its just magical to watch.

Fox's main problem with Trump is that he doesn't dogwhistle his opinions. It's more of a megaphone.

A decision on Biden's candidacy (one way or another) will be coming in the next couple of weeks.

Good, I don't wish ill upon that many people but Erick is human garbage, even Trump is an upstanding gentleman in comparison. I can't think of many other people more deserving of this sort of treatment.

Basically this, the guy is just as misogynistic as Trump anyway.

Warren being offered VP would feel like an attempt by the Dem leaders/DLC to placate their big donors by getting her out of the Senate.

I would be surprised if Warren got in at all. I also don't want her as VP. She's way more useful in the Senate in a leadership position.

It seems to me that a three way race with two establishment democrats on the conservative side would be a dream scenario for Bernie.

It's been "a thing" among autograph hounds to get signatures on baseballs for the last decade or so. I suspect some of the appeal is the quirkiness of it, but there's also the notion that the signature more likely to be a genuine signature obtained face-to-face (rather than autopenned or through the mail) and will therefore command a better price on the resale market.

Getting presidential candidates on baseballs is a thing going back way more than 10 years.

Where have these people been the last few years? She suffered no consequences for the awful coordination during the midterms. There was no coherent message on a national scale for why people should go to the polls and vote for Dems even when they had a pretty decent list of accomplishments to tout.

I hope so, because most of the stories I've read make Mackie seem like a cool dude. Look up the story of him deciding to secretly autograph posters of himself as the Falcon at Michael's.

Tl:dr

Jeb! is officially toast and unwilling to admit it. Across the board pay cuts, major staff cuts, cutting back on fundraising, "focus on early states", i.e. what every candidate says when they start winding down their campaign.

Yeah he's done...just shows how irrelevant money is in a campaign if people just don't like you

To me it's pretty obvious that he's not running because he really wanted to. Either that, or he assumed that the nomination was his and he could just sit back and do nothing while still getting it. Regardless, he looks miserable and I'm sure after that performance the donors are going to jump ship.
