A new poll from NBC News released late last week, had some bad news for Trump. In July 32% of registered voters strongly approved of the way Trump was handling his job and the new poll shows that has sunk to 29%.
I was happy to see a George Washington University Politics Poll Tuesday morning showing Biden cratering. The two progressives in the race are tremendously outpacing the 3 corporate Dems still in contention:
Over the weekend, Bernie unveiled his plan to end all corporate giving in federal elections. It should come as a surprise, since he's been talking about it for years and put as much of it as possible into effect in his own campaign.
Rhapsody In Blond by Nancy OhanianThe other day, someone pointed out that convicting an impeached president in the Senate doesn't actually take two-thirds of all 100 senators. It takes two-thirds of the Senators present. Trump is certainly going to be impeached by the House, where only a simple majority is required.
Every word a true oneby Thomas NeuburgerAlmost the very definition of corruption is trading money for favors while serving the public interest in public office. Almost, but not quite. There are other definitions, and Zephyr Teachout's "self-serving use of public power for private ends" is still the best.
Who hates Bernie? You can see on the video up top-- multimillionaire media hosts oppose him as adamantly as banisters and pharmaceutical executives. For example, see that unfortunate-looking woman in the red dress in the beginning of the video who complained one Comcast-TV that "Bernie Sanders makes my skin crawl?" That's 50 year old Miriyam Rocah, a Scarsdale multimillionaire whose taxes will go up considerably when Bernie is in the White House.
Writing for the Washington Post, Alexandra Petri insists Trump isn't the clown and imbecile many people see him as, but a brilliant and calculating mastermind who is methodically going about winning his reelection battle. It's "all part of a plan," the wrote. "[E]very move that Trump makes, has made or is making... is planned. It is a genius plan. It might look like the random, haphazard flailing of a cat that has gotten its head stuck in a bucket.
Oh, what fun-- a new YouGov poll from The Economist. So, what I learned about my fellow Americans today.
