She added a real “polish” to the story.

Wouldn’t it be fun if his wife left him for this in the midst of the campaign?

RFK's last wife may even have committed suicide after finding his lengthy journal full of notes about all the women he cheated on her with. Great guy!

When something like this comes up, I always come to the same conclusion. I doubt that everybody at the My Pillow company is trying to send a racist coded message to the people. But probably one guy there thought this would be cool or funny, and nobody noticed or got in the way of it. And now if they're accused of this being intentional and racist, they likely won't change it or acknowledge any sort of wrongdoing.

This is one of my big worries: that on Election Day, groups of vigilante Republicans will be patrolling around polling places in trucks with guns and weapons, allegedly trying to "protect" the vote or be "poll watchers," while in practice they are making Democrats and brown folks feel afraid and intimidating some of them out of voting altogether. Like, think about what this guy is saying. He says to go to polling places and look for "busloads of people who clearly look like they ..." (trails off) and that you should "make sure they are checking IDs" and "sound the alarm" if illegal alien voting is going on. But, like, you don't have any right to demand to see another random citizen's ID or papers. It isn't up to you, Mr. Random Poll Watcher, to decide if somebody "looks like" a legal voter. This is just a recipe for violence and intimidation.

I might have bought the “one mischievous employee” hypothesis if it weren’t still up. By now, there can be no question that they’re doing it willfully.

It sounds like Mark Robinson is down to just 3 staffers now. Oof. I wonder if this scandal could also tip NC to Harris.

Somehow, scandals don’t stick to Trump. The only people who notice are already in the anti-Trump camp. If shooting someone on 5th Ave in broad daylight doesn’t cost him any voters, neither does once having endorsed Robinson. (He now claims to know nothing about the guy. Weird how often and how successfully he uses claims of ignorance as a political tactic.)

It really all comes back to Trump…Trump getting away with comments like this has empowered lots of other people to just say how they feel and show their true colors. Worst of all it probably makes them think they are right to feel that way.
