Bwa ha ha!  Good one.  

The same Republicans who push to outlaw abortion have quietly spirited
their mistresses over the border to have one too, I'm sure.

You'd think the Dems could make some light of this sort of thing.  Some
day we'll look back on this administration as a study of how not to run
a communications department. So many missed opportunities.

First on the list: framing this election as "democracy is under threat."
Haw, as if Americans were capable of such abstract thought anymore.

The "Mitch McConnell goes catatonic in front of the microphone" videos
(two separate occasions mind you) should be on permanent repeat-loop
every time someone complains about Biden's cognitive health.

So many missed opportunities.  I guess WashDC really is a bubble
impervious to actual contact with public opinion.  A smarter team would
set up shop in Topeka, Kansas to find out what Americans actually care
about.  "Threats to democracy" isn't one of them: hint.
