In this week's London Calling, the main topic is the extraordinary coincidence of three figures who’ve dominated politics for a decade suffering reversals of fortune in one week: Trump, Boris and Sturgeon.

Minnesota is closing in on 100,000 COVID cases and will get there before election day. Despite a significant and ongoing investment in the state by the Trump campaign, the margin between Trump and Biden continues to grow-- against Trump. The Real Cleat Politics polling average shows Biden up 10.2%-- 51.6% to 41.4%, which has got to be a big letdown for Trump since Hillary barely beat him in 2016-- 1,367,716 (46.44%) to 1,322,951 (44.92%).
In a "sermon" a couple of years ago, God Has Nothing to Do With Trump Being President, John Pavlovitz reached out directly to evangelicals to remind them that spiritualizing the Trump presidency is "sinful, blasphemous, lousy evangelism and just plain asinine.
Trump's top Q-Anon candidate, Marjorie Taylor Greene-- who is guaranteed a seat in one of America's most backward districts, the one where they opened the schools where you saw all the crowded hallways... and then shut the schools down again when dozens of people came down with COVID-19. That's GA-14, the northwest corner of the state, where Trump beat Hillary 75.0% to 22.1% and where GOP extremist Tom Graves was reelected in 2018 with 76.5%.

Along with their usual NAZI words and Third Reich symblism, we can expect to hear little else from such a collection of grifters, con artists, and white supremacy goons. Here's the prelude to the uber fear-mongering quote in tonight's meme:
by Noah Sunday Thoughts:Yeah, Rick Wiles, but what's YOUR excuse? What made you so inhuman? What altered your DNA? Or, were you just born that way? Did your god play a little trick on you? Is it just a lifestyle choice that you made? For decades, I've always noted that republicans always need someone or some group to hate or at least use for stoking fear to motivate their voters.
If you're a regular DWT reader, you probably wonder, at least some of the time, how prevelent is mental illness among Trump supporters. Most people think rabid Trumpists are just stupid, but there is a big difference between mental illness and low IQs. Yesterday, USA Today published a report by Kelly Tyko about the Arizona woman, Melissa Rein Lively, who, earlier this month filmed herself tearing down a mask display at a Target in Scottsdale.
