"Whatever dark power Trump has that has enabled him to become president twice while being quite literally one of the most morally despicable human beings on Earth, it’s not easily duplicated by your average Republican candidate for Senate, House, or governor. When candidates like Vivek Ramaswamy ask 'What would Trump do?' then do that thing, they often find that the voters respond with, 'What an atrocious jerk. I’m definitely not voting for that guy.'"

Israelis head to the polls tomorrow. @CFR_org breaks down what's at stake, the leading challengers to Benjamin Netanyahu, and what could determine the election's outcome. "Neither side has a clear path to a majority in the Knesset. Netanyahu is constricted by being significantly less popular than in previous runs and will have to build a coalition with far-right parties. The change bloc is restricted by some of its members’ unwillingness to build a government with any Arab party," write Ezra Hess and Ittai Ronen.

@AlliFlowers as if Mitch could ever tell the difference between the good guys and the bad guys…

Barack Obama: He’s clearly not focused on lowering prices for you. There is one thing he does seem to focus on, in addition to home renovation, and that is how to enrich himself and his family and his cronies.

James Talarico: We are running against the embodiment of this corrupt system. Ken Paxton doesn’t serve us, he serves himself. He now owns 15 homes, while most Texans are struggling to afford one. It’s hard to get 15 homes in a game of Monopoly. I don’t know how Ken Paxton got 15 homes.

GOP Sen. Mitch McConnell is threatening to block Trump’s legislative agenda unless he stops bending the knee to Putin.

“Passing this agenda will require working with Republicans who know the difference between the good guys and the bad guys.

"[voters] look at a president, and he's building ballrooms, and he's launching crypto companies, and he's taking care of his cabinet members and his Mar-a-Lago crowd, and he's saying, 'I don't care if gas is more expensive.' Listen, the president's message speaks for itself.

Me: "[Real wages] are down five months running.

Former Trump adviser Steve Cortes: "Because of the war."

Me: "You've said 'because of the war' maybe seven times..."

Cortes: "Because it spiked prices..."

Me: "But you're treating the war like it's a natural disaster, like it's COVID, like it fell from the sky..."

Cortes: "No I'm not..."

Me: "...the war was started by your guy, deliberately, a war of choice."

Growing up in Europe, I saw an American president telling the Soviet leader to “tear down this wall”. Because he wanted the people of East Germany to join the free world.

The current US president builds walls, and he wants East Ukraine to just give up and accept Russian rule.

On November 3, Americans have the chance to change course and relight the torch of the Statue of Liberty, to show the world that America stands for freedom.

It may be the last chance.

Make it count.

"See No Evil: How Republicans Looked Away While Trump Cashed In, and What It's Costing You."

Trump reported at least $2.2 billion in income for 2025, more than triple the year before.

Two-thirds of Americans say he's using the presidency to enrich himself, per the Post-ABC-Ipsos poll.

So why did so little stand in the way?

"It is absolutely a bridge too far for ordinary people who are seeing this. And I keep using the word repulsed and disgusted, but there’s something gut-level and emotional about people’s response to this that you can’t, like, MAGA your way out of."
