"Trump is aiming for a trifecta never achieved in American political history: He is attempting to convert his campaign’s top three winning issues into political liabilities of epic proportions.

"Trump is aiming for a trifecta never achieved in American political history: He is attempting to convert his campaign’s top three winning issues into political liabilities of epic proportions. He has already done the heavy lifting: He has alienated voters on the economy, immigration, and the Epstein files. But there is no situation that Trump cannot make worse."

@wdlindsy On Bluesky, I read the following:

“Kid Rock makes music for people who have tattoos of their kids, but not custody.”

"I truly, truly believe that MAGA's biggest fear, whether with Black Lives Matter or with Bad Bunny Bowl, is young white men and women bouncing and dancing joyfully to Bad Bunny and Lady Gaga instead of dancing offbeat to child-attracted lyrics belching Kid Rock."

"There is simply no upside to attacking Bad Bunny and Latino pride, which is what he did last night on Truth Social, and from which he will never back away. He has thrown away the support he gathered in 2024 from Latinos, I mean, he has just trashed it. And every Latino in this country knows this truth:"

"Bad Bunny’s halftime show put the MAGAt right on the aggressively wrong side of traditional marriage, love, and even the American flag, to say nothing of the Latino votes they need to stay in power. It made Trump and his mob cultural outsiders, desperately taking solace from a parade of has-been artists who couldn’t outperform Puppy Bowl. And he did it without once mentioning ICE."

"Now we’re seeing that the nonwhite working class is deserting Trump. That whole set of myths around 2024 is in collapse, and the Super Bowl really underscores that perfectly."

"Their nightmare is white Christian kids wanting to be part of the much more fun, much more interesting multicultural experience of America, future America, and maybe, maybe joining the anti-fascist resistance instead of ICE. And maybe, just maybe, beginning to vote for the same way that they dance."

"Across three independent national polls conducted within days of one another—the NPR/PBS/Marist survey, the Economist/YouGov poll, and Quinnipiac University’s national poll—his job approval remains stalled in the high-30s to around 40 percent, with a clear majority disapproving."

@wdlindsy Not a day goes by without Trump exploding about something! What a sad a man he is.

Bad Bunny reminded us that joy is the best type of resistance, that love is more powerful than hate. ...

Joy on that stage was not escapism. It was defiance. It was a reminder that culture survives attempts to erase it. That love outlasts hate. That no amount of grievance politics can undo the reality of who we are together."

"But Trump is deeply underwater on this issue, and one of the few things he can do to make it worse is to pardon the remaining mastermind of the Epstein-Maxwell sex crimes network."

@wdlindsy

Ghislaine Maxwell should be well aware if she's offered 'extra sheets' on her last night in jail.

She might consider staying at her Club Fed because these billionaires are infamous for "falls out of windows".
