This is nuts…

@EWErickson The one principle that Trump has is that tariffs are good. He’s not doing that.

For people like me, the Maine Senate race is another Fezzik’s choice: We obviously can’t vote for the candidate who is deeply morally flawed, but we also obviously cannot support the candidate who has enabled the president in his lawlessness all too often.

@JustinWStapley It seems to me that Never Trump is both pro-decency and anti-authoritarian. Those two positions are at odds in the Maine race.

[The Racket News @NewsRacket]

The best solution seems to be a Kobayashi Maru scenario. Maine Democrats should change the facts of the situation.

A primary economic lever in the hands of a U.S. president is to wage war—not declare war, just to start one.

Presidents don’t control the economy generally because they don’t try hard enough.

The real problem isn’t Paxton or even Trump. The real problem is a right-wing propaganda machine that has persuaded Republicans that the worst Republican is better than the best Democrat (except for Trump-critical Republicans who are closet Democrats).

[Senate Majority PAC @MajorityPAC]

We were going to send out a reminder of why Ken Paxton is so terrible.

But the NRSC already did it for us.

@mlzema May God heal comfort you, strengthen you, and heal you.

@NewsRacket With the recent primary results it is more clear than ever - MAGA/GOP primary voters simply want a king and will put in place lackeys to do the kings work for as long as they need to elected middlemen.

[The Racket News @NewsRacket]

When someone’s rich, people figure they must be smart, because they made a lot of money somehow. It’s a myth and a fallacy, because many people get rich because of blind, stupid luck, graft, or inheritance—or all three.

The Paxton win:
1. shows the GOP is a Trump Party, not a conservative party
2. Means that Cornyn will feel free to block Trump until January
3. Boosts Democratic chances of winning the Senate

[The Racket News @NewsRacket]

It wasn’t that Cornyn was ineffective in the Senate; he could whip like few senators in modern history. It’s that he dared to touch the third rail of Texas politics—guns.
