@JRubinBlogger is pounding Donnie & the GOP today. washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/…
“Advertising you are cutting off help to millions of Americans when your political opponents are trying to juice the economy might be Trump’s stupidest political move yet.
“He — and now the entire Senate GOP — is telling Americans their economic pain is not as important as jamming through a Supreme Court nominee who is going to further increase hardship by striking down the Affordable Care Act.”
The good news is the Republicans are so awful that Americans can’t wait to vote them out of office. #VoteBlueToSaveAmerica

“If Democrats … are entertaining the radical idea of expanding the size of the court, it’s hard to blame them; Republicans have stocked the court with one and soon two justices whose seats they were not entitled to fill. This is slow-motion court-packing in plain sight.
“Republicans stole one seat when they refused to let President Barack Obama fill a vacancy created nine months before the 2016 election. Now they are poised to steal another, rushing through President Trump’s nominee with Election Day less than a month away.
“The 2020 election isn’t about whether to expand the size of the Supreme Court. It isn’t about whether Democratic nominee Joe Biden states his position on court-packing. The election is about one thing: a referendum on the dangerous presidency of Donald Trump.

“that he has opposed for years in order to improve his chances of winning Florida. (Trump tweeted in the third person late Thursday night: ‘Donald J. Trump is the best thing to ever happen to the people of Puerto Rico.’)

“Evan Hollander, a spokesman for the Democratic majority on the House Appropriations Committee, said Trump is lying: ‘Without new legislation, the Trump administration cannot make covid-19 treatment available for free.’
“About 4 in 5 of the 212,000 Americans killed by the coronavirus have been over the age of 65. This group is less antsy about getting workers back into offices or kids back into school.

“Barry Croft, one of the six men accused of teaming up with a militia group to violently overthrow the government and kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, received a pardon last year in Delaware, The Detroit News reports.
“Croft, 44, was pardoned by Delaware Gov. John Carney last April for several charges dating back to the 1990s. The charges included possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony, assault, and burglary.
“While he was also convicted of conspiracy, receiving stolen property, and disorderly conduct, the Delaware Board of Pardons recommended the pardon after he appeared before the board in December 2019. Carney then signed the pardon papers on April 4, 2019.

“Spain, who worked for the party’s House election arm during Barack Obama’s blowout 7 percentage point first presidential victory, said he sees ‘echoes of 2008’ in the current landscape, with growing chances of a tsunami that drowns congressional Republican candidates.
