What’s the ONE narrative Donald Trump doesn’t want in the press the week of his first rematch debate with Joe Biden?
Election denial.
Enter stage right - soon to be former Congressman Bob Good.
Axios covers it well: GOP colleagues sneer at Rep. Good's election complaints
Possible 2025 independent candidate for Governor in Virginia, Denver Riggleman chipped in his thoughts:
Former Rep. Denver Riggleman, a Republican-turned-independent who lost to Good in 2020, noted that McGuire and Good have both echoed Trump's claims about the 2020 election.
"I don't find it surprising that an election between an election denier and an election denier would end with one of them denying the election was fair based on conspiracy theories," he said.
Jonah Goldberg in The Dispatch : One More Time With Feeling: Unity Is Overrated Don’t let Nazi raccoons keep you from thinking straight.
Part of Yuval’s (Levin) argument is that we misunderstand the role of unity in our constitutional order. The Constitution was crafted to foster productive disagreement: faction against faction, state governments against the federal government, the executive branch against the legislative branch. The goal wasn’t to secure unity, but rather to foster healthy competition. That’s what free speech is for—to let people argue.
Walter Russell Mead in the WSJ: Europe May Be Declining, but America Isn’t
History doesn’t, I think, teach us that decline has a single cause. The ancient Greeks and Romans believed that decline and decay were part of a natural and inevitable process. As a society becomes affluent and powerful, it loses the primitive virtues that made it great. As virtue vanishes from a people, its institutions decay, and ultimately its defenses collapse.
As long as we keep developing new technologies, integrating immigrants and generating wealth on a staggering scale, American society will be too dynamic for decadence and too busy for decline.
For a GREAT laugh watch this interview. Martin Short is just sooo funny.
