Anthony Weiner apparently felt like popping up again at the end of an election, for old time’s sake: nbcnewyork.com/news/politics/…
Weiner seems to have thought there was such a need at this moment to get some press for his new reclaimed materials countertop manufacturing company that he’d do an interview that aired 15 days before the presidential election.

But that’s why they call him Carlos Danger.
Weiner is asked in this interview if he feels any responsibility for Clinton’s losing b/c of his cameo in the last two weeks of 2016. He does not.

(In an interview with me 2 weeks ago, Clinton still pointed to the Comey letter as the turning point: theatlantic.com/politics/archi…)
All in all, it’s starting to seem like Anthony Weiner has a compulsion for people to look at him on the internet.

Obama, hitting the stump at a car rally in Philadelphia: Image
Obama on Trump: “by the way, his ratings are down. And you know that upsets him.”
Obama on Trump: "He’s got a secret Chinese bank account. How is that possible? Can you imagine if I had had a secret Chinese bank account when I was running for re-election. You think Fox News might have been a little concerned about that. They would have called me Beijing Barry"

Obama, joining a round table in Philadelphia in his first in-person stop for the Biden-Harris campaign Image
Obama just compared voting to going to the gym & people who complain that they don’t end up looking like @TheRock. “The easiest thing to do is to say, ‘Well, I quit.’ But we can’t afford to quit.”

But then adds he’d still like to look like The Rock. “Maybe if I shave my head.”
Obama on Trump, not by name: “it’s been a long history in America: You try to distract working people from coming together by highlighting racial differences or religious differences, so the people who got what they got can keep what they got.”

Here’s the Trump campaign making a show of attacking the press, when aides often follow up and ask to speak off the record after this kind of thing to say it’s all tactics and a show:
Consider, for example, that some of the White House press corps who got COVID may well have been exposed to the virus by the president himself, coming to speak to reporters off the record on Air Force One, in between rallies where, among other things, he attacked reporters
This attack the press in public/then be solicitous of the press in private theme was part of the 2016 campaign, the White House, the 2020 campaign for Trump and top aides. Meanwhile, some reporters have had real threats to their safety from Trump supporters who take it seriously

Then-Sen. George Allen, 2006: “Macaca, or whatever his name is.”

Sen. David Perdue, tonight: “Kamala-mala-mala-whatever"

(Though Perdue is making fun of the actual name of a woman he has served with for four years.)
Perdue and Harris are not just in the Senate together, but both serve on the Budget Committee. So Perdue either doesn’t know the name of a woman he’s served closely alongside, or he intentionally mispronounced to say he thinks it’s weird as part of a campaign rally.
One way to think about this clip is what it would look like if someone made a big show of mispronouncing “David,” which is Senator Perdue’s first name

NEW - Biden’s campaign looked into an endorsement from W, but it’s not coming. But if Biden wins and Trump causes chaos, Biden would lean on him to get involved.

Bush doesn’t want to get mixed up in any of it.
theatlantic.com/politics/archi…
“This president does some things that might even drive President Bush to feel like he has to speak out, that he just can’t ignore the damage that’s being done to our democracy,” said @GovCTW. “He hasn’t so far, and there’s been significant damage done to our democracy.”
Bush last month, deliberately gently: “People look around and see America at its worst. Not those of us at the Bush Center.”

@BillKristol: “If not now, when? If you’re not going to blow the whistle now and say, ‘This is beyond the pale,’ when are you going to do it?”

Giuliani is now changing the Hunter Biden laptop story. The shop owner told the NY Post he couldn't identify who dropped off the laptop. Giuliani, who wasn't there, said on Sirius XM today "was left by Hunter Biden, in an inebriated, heavily inebriated state with the merchant."
Post story said the owner was able to identify the ownership b/c "the laptop bore a sticker from the Beau Biden Foundation." Giuliani says now he has a document "signed by Hunter Biden says that after 90 days the hard drive is abandoned & it becomes the property of the merchant"
What happened here is that Giuliani was trying to assert that the documents purported to be from this laptop were obtained legally. In answering those questions, he contradicted what he and others had initially said in ways that raise questions about the provenance.
