A defender of DeSantis messaged me the other day - after I said I had written him off. We had an interesting exchange. This is a smart guy and some body many of you would likely know.

It's weird how hostile Slate is toward Biden who has spent his entire life fighting for many of the same initiatives that Slate has been fighting for. Reading @Millicentsomer- you would think she was talking about Ted Cruz's older bigger asshole brother.

A long time friend (and Republican) and I had a little back and forth on Facebook yesterday.

He feels they are basically “lumped in with Trump”. He sees this as unfair and not very accurate. /2

Ok - I had to pause my live tweeting when they sat us down behind Joe and told us to put up our phones. But here is what I would have tweeted - in the moment - if I could have. The place was packed. The venue was essentially a church gym and it was full. All the seats filled and people standing against the walls about 2 or 3 deep.

In some ways Trump is a simple-minded dumbass and in other ways he is a freaking genius. The dumbass part is easy to recognize. He doesn’t read. He doesn’t understand the world. He doesn’t understand intricacies. He doesn’t appreciate nuance or the comprehend the complications of situations that can’t be sketched out in a page or two of a children’s book.
