Trump's excuse for having dinner with white supremacist Nick Fuentes is the exact same as Marjorie Taylor Greene's excuse for speaking at Fuentes' white supremacist convention

@juddlegum from all the posts here, or lack thereof from high profile twits, it seems there is still an abundance of time left on Twitter.
I find this whole "Twitter is failing" crap running thin

@juddlegum
The demise of Twitter is inevitable. The longer it takes, the more people are hurt. You are correct to move your community to safer ground.

Your newsletter is excellent and I highly recommend it.

@juddlegum it really has been a great value. Thanks for the quality reporting.
@juddlegum already do. Don’t regret it either.
@juddlegum lol even now he still refuses to acknowledge this site, what a goober.
@juddlegum you got it. Been following you for years.

@juddlegum

A sample of Judd's writing. I like it.

By the way anyone interested in monopoly and olichargy US style should try the Matt Stoller substack.

All corporations want for Christmas is a $131 billion tax cut

In 2017, with Trump in the White House, Republicans in Congress passed a massive tax cut for corporations, reducing the basic corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%. From there, corporations have an assortment of deductions and credits to reduce their tax bill further. Between 2018 and 2020, the three tax years following the corporate tax rate cut, "

@juddlegum

The MSM should stop reporting about poll results.

An election should be about the direction the candidates wish to take the country in the future.

Warren was mocked for saying "I have a plan". She had the right idea, the discussion should have been about ideas. Instead it was about highly irrelevant issues.

Any politician without a plan and in it just for power or glory hugging should be summarily voted down.

@antipode77 @juddlegum I agree. MSM needs to educate the public regarding public policy, Congressional bills and how privatization of our infrastructure is contributing to the erosion of our water systems and power grids.
@juddlegum Who is inviting to dinner people they don't know?

@juddlegum

TRUMP: "Stormy Daniel is a porn star and hooker?"... Zips up fly. "I had no idea".

@juddlegum If we could use gifs, I’d be posting one of those with eyes rolled.
@juddlegum And the country collectively called Bullshit.
@juddlegum the excuse is just a diversion. He’s empowering his foot soldiers for the campaign to come.
@juddlegum Possibly Fuentes is of the Ramura race? #Voyager
@juddlegum he’s just a fascist Forrest Gump, just showing up when no one is looking.
@juddlegum You know how we know TGF is lying? He said it or he tweeted it.
@juddlegum
It's a sad excuse, it's said now, expected, with death in its breath, truth is what I say it is. Frightening to think what they would do to eradicate those of us where truth matters.
@juddlegum I don't 'click' on any articles about those troll politicians, they work in a symbiotic relationship with the media for clicks to spread their self influence by appealing to base human bias and instincts, good and bad. I will read quality in depth articles about the political landscape, that may include articles about them. Your clicks matter a lot.
@juddlegum perhaps, my client Trump, has Alzheimer and does not remember.
@juddlegum looking forward to Kevin McCarthy not knowing who he is when he brings him as his guest to the SOTU.
@juddlegum you gotta give them this; they're consistent in their ignorance.
@juddlegum Nobody actually knows Nick Fruentes, but somehow he keeps showing up for dinner. Curiouser and curiouser...
@juddlegum
No one knows who he is yet everyone wants to hang out with him. How's that work?
@juddlegum "Look, I'm just super ignorant!"
@juddlegum as long as you offer money, they'll ignore your negatives
@juddlegum Who would have someone their their home or speak at their event if you have no idea who they are? What garbage.

@juddlegum I can't believe these words are about to come out of my mouth, but Trump has the more believable excuse. It's unlikely that he was in charge of the guest list and we know he couldn't be arsed to read it or anything else. Marge, on the other hand, has zero excuse. He invited her, he wasn't just some face in the crowd.

They are, of course, both lying sacks of shit. Remember, kids: #NotDumbBad

@juddlegum I like a smart guy for my president, one who does research before acting.
@juddlegum Like ANYONE is going to randomly have dinner with a former President without being fully vetted. He knew EXACTLY who he was meeting with. 🙄
@juddlegum I, too, frequently have dinner with people I've never met or heard of
@juddlegum funny how not a single liberal “accidentally” has dinner with white supremacists.

@juddlegum
Trump is losing the support of neo-Nazis, his most important base.

I've noticed that their endless Jewish conspiracy theories about Jews are starting to include Trump as a co-conspirator.

Trump is doing this because he is trying to regain their favor.

@juddlegum - so, if you’re a Republicant, you don’t have a staff person who can read and provide you with a briefing on the people you’ll be meeting? Oh, and of course, as a Republicant you’ll lie all the time about anything and everything …
