Trump’s obsession with male GOP candidates’ bodies is coming after a wave of media stories about how “hot” Democrats are, from Ossoff & El-Sayed to AOC and other women in DSA. He sees it as a competition, as GOP tanks. He’s superficial, insecure and jealous, which we always knew.

It’s hilarious that Trump got off his ass and voted early in-person yesterday. It shows how much he was burned by attention focused on his voting by mail in the primary even though he was in Florida. He’s on the run.

In one day, two politicians - Bolsonaro in Brazil and Vucic in Serbia - with ties to Trump have lost surprise elections thanks to high turnout. The rise of the international far-right is not inevitable.

If, as expected, Democrats sweep this election,the already growing movement in MAGA to repeal the 19th amendment will get louder. It's tempting to dismiss this as just talk. But while they can't just end women's suffrage, this movement is dangerous. www.salon.com/2026/10/26/m...

salon.comMAGA attacks on women voters are no jokeEven if they can't repeal the 19th Amendment, opponents of women's suffrage are gaining power in the GOP

In MAGA, parental estrangement is a big issue — and parents are held out as blameless victims. I suspect that's one reason why Vivek Ramaswamy ran an ad celebrating Amy Acton's vile mother. And why MAGA — including Vance and Trump — are backing him. www.salon.com/2026/10/23/r...

He’ll go with the psycho misogynists and back Ramaswamy. He has no shame. This is a man who campaigned for authoritarian Victor Orban on eve of landslide loss--and of course the rapist Trump, his boss.

Matthew Gertz@mattgertz.bsky.social

Tough call for JD Vance, who is supposed to be campaigning in Ohio today: Will he court the GOP's anti-Indian racists by shivving Vivek Ramaswamy over the Acton ad, or appeal to its psycho misogynists by vouching for its contents?

Ludicrous framing here from @nytimes.com. No serious Dems ever thought these would be slam dunks. And it's premature to let a centrist group get in a self-interested shot like this before we even know if these candidates will actually fare worse in the elections than other ones. Indefensible.

Hegseth is likely being booted. He was freelancing when he announced the livestream. Vance said immediately, “I don’t know that’s actually going to happen, so let’s just see.” Trump, after hedging, just canceled it. We should take this as further indication Hegseth will be on his way out.

Trump just called off the livestream of the firing squad execution. Poll showed 80% of Americans opposed. This is another backtrack. The public pressure works, he’s scrambling before the midterms.
