Fish also reflects on how the debate revealed, again, that Trump and today’s MAGAfied Republicans and “conservatives” are really bullies and cowards who will fold when confronted directly and forcefully. Fish also predicts that if current trends continue Kamala Harris and the Democrats will defeat Trump and the Republicans on Election Day. [Read it here](~/AASU4wA~/RgRozTfGP0RnaHR0cHM6Ly9hLnBvc3QubGhkLmxpbmsvcjRyajd3aTAweS8_bGhfYWlkPTEyMjk1OSZsaF9jaWQ9cXFucjB5NTJwNiZsaF9lbT10cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW44NSU0MGdtYWlsLmNvbVcDc3BjQgpm4cay6mZ6GC3RUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW44NUBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAACg~). ~/AASU4wA~/RgRozTfGP0RDaHR0cHM6Ly9hLnBvc3QubGhkLmxpbmsvZW94eHJmb2hnZS8_bGhfYWlkPTEyMjk1OSZsaF9jaWQ9cXFucjB5NTJwNlcDc3BjQgpm4cay6mZ6GC3RUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW44NUBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAACg~~/AASU4wA~/RgRozTfGP0RDaHR0cHM6Ly9hLnBvc3QubGhkLmxpbmsvNWZ3dHkydW55eC8_bGhfYWlkPTEyMjk1OSZsaF9jaWQ9cXFucjB5NTJwNlcDc3BjQgpm4cay6mZ6GC3RUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW44NUBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAACg~~/AASU4wA~/RgRozTfGP0RDaHR0cHM6Ly9hLnBvc3QubGhkLmxpbmsvMm10bXFhb2Fhbi8_bGhfYWlkPTEyMjk1OSZsaF9jaWQ9cXFucjB5NTJwNlcDc3BjQgpm4cay6mZ6GC3RUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW44NUBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAACg~~/AASU4wA~/RgRozTfGP0RDaHR0cHM6Ly9hLnBvc3QubGhkLmxpbmsvZ2p1Yml1eWUxYi8_bGhfYWlkPTEyMjk1OSZsaF9jaWQ9cXFucjB5NTJwNlcDc3BjQgpm4cay6mZ6GC3RUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW44NUBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAACg~ Mark Robinson's anti-birth control tirade spoils Trump's Project 2025 spin From Amanda Marcotte: Donald Trump and his allies [want voters to believe that North Carolina Lt.
