Inside the Gaetz pitch to Senators: "I’m not going to go there and indict Liz Cheney, have storm troopers bust through the studio door at MSNBC, and arrest Anthony Fauci"
3/10
Re the federal & House investigations, Gaetz allies are pushing back on the credibility of the accuser & her friend KM who claimed to see Gaetz have sex w/the 17 y/o in 2017
Harris has raised enough money to burn a wet dog so it’s easy to see her plowing a few million on TV in Florida to juice poll numbers & see if team Trump bites
Had Biden made real ground/organizing investments since 2020, she’d have a good chance in FL
2/4 Harris lead of 14pts in Miami-Dade is certainly believable & for dispirited Democrats who suffered through the Biden Era’s neglect of the state, it’s encouraging
But Trump won Florida by 1.2 in 2016 when he lost Dade by almost 30. He lost Dade by 7.3 in 2020 & won FL by 3.3
3/4 Polls have Trump up about 7 in FL. Republicans who know the state admit Harris is way tougher than Biden. They were looking at a double digit Trump win in FL w/Joe
Now it’s looking like single digits
It’s unlikely FL becomes in play this circle. But unlikely ≠ impossible
3/4 Yesterday, Shapiro also disavowed the part of the oped where he wrote in opposition of a two-state solution (he has supported it for years, he said)
An iconic image of Donald Trump, after a bullet appears to have grazed his head and bloodied his ear in an assassination attempt, defiantly resisting Secret Service so he can hold his fist in the air to show he survived
