No matter the subject, DeSantis sounded perpetually aggrieved. Sometimes he was snappish, and sometimes just whiny, but always bristling. Even when he was trying to sound upbeat, the river of resentment would burble up in his mannerisms and his peevish voice. Reporters got used to the way he seemed to always have sand in his underwear, but stepping back, it's just plain weird that DeSantis was so irritable all the time.~/AASU4wA~/RgRnki9fP0RoaHR0cHM6Ly9hLnBvc3QubGhkLmxpbmsvOW1pOW5iMjQ3Yi8_bGhfYWlkPTM1NDM5NTImbGhfY2lkPWVjNjRuYnBncHcmbGhfZW09dHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luODUlNDBnbWFpbC5jb21XA3NwY0IKZaFhqq9l8jSWn1IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luODVAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAo[Read more](~/AASU4wA~/RgRnki9fP0RoaHR0cHM6Ly9hLnBvc3QubGhkLmxpbmsvcjlmYzdyY2NyaS8_bGhfYWlkPTM1NDM5NTImbGhfY2lkPWVjNjRuYnBncHcmbGhfZW09dHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luODUlNDBnbWFpbC5jb21XA3NwY0IKZaFhqq9l8jSWn1IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luODVAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAo). ~/AASU4wA~/RgRnki9fP0REaHR0cHM6Ly9hLnBvc3QubGhkLmxpbmsvNTZrMGprMXExMC8_bGhfYWlkPTM1NDM5NTImbGhfY2lkPWVjNjRuYnBncHdXA3NwY0IKZaFhqq9l8jSWn1IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luODVAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAo~/AASU4wA~/RgRnki9fP0REaHR0cHM6Ly9hLnBvc3QubGhkLmxpbmsvYTd0ODZpYTZ2bi8_bGhfYWlkPTM1NDM5NTImbGhfY2lkPWVjNjRuYnBncHdXA3NwY0IKZaFhqq9l8jSWn1IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luODVAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAo~/AASU4wA~/RgRnki9fP0REaHR0cHM6Ly9hLnBvc3QubGhkLmxpbmsvYzE5emQwbm5ocS8_bGhfYWlkPTM1NDM5NTImbGhfY2lkPWVjNjRuYnBncHdXA3NwY0IKZaFhqq9l8jSWn1IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luODVAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAo~/AASU4wA~/RgRnki9fP0REaHR0cHM6Ly9hLnBvc3QubGhkLmxpbmsvMHRxdTBlazNhMC8_bGhfYWlkPTM1NDM5NTImbGhfY2lkPWVjNjRuYnBncHdXA3NwY0IKZaFhqq9l8jSWn1IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luODVAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAo Don’t fall for the trumped-up charges against Fani Willis [Mainstream media’s](~/AASU4wA~/RgRnki9fP0REaHR0cHM6Ly9hLnBvc3QubGhkLmxpbmsvNmt6MWU0ejU1ZC8_bGhfYWlkPTM1NDM5NTImbGhfY2lkPWVjNjRuYnBncHdXA3NwY0IKZaFhqq9l8jSWn1IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luODVAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAo) heavy [coverage](~/AASU4wA~/RgRnki9fP0REaHR0cHM6Ly9hLnBvc3QubGhkLmxpbmsvZm5qemxkMzd3OC8_bGhfYWlkPTM1NDM5NTImbGhfY2lkPWVjNjRuYnBncHdXA3NwY0IKZaFhqq9l8jSWn1IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luODVAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAo) of [Republicans’ attempt to disqualify Willis](~/AASU4wA~/RgRnki9fP0REaHR0cHM6Ly9hLnBvc3QubGhkLmxpbmsvYnFjZzMyN2t4Ny8_bGhfYWlkPTM1NDM5NTImbGhfY2lkPWVjNjRuYnBncHdXA3NwY0IKZaFhqq9l8jSWn1IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luODVAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAo) will likely crescendo in a big, fat “so what?” A romantic affair isn’t a nefarious conflict of interest, nor is traveling together, nor is getting paid.

Trump's criminal rebrand of the Republican Party is complete From Chauncey DeVega: Too many people — including the news media and other professional politics watchers — have convinced themselves that once Trump was on trial, his support would inevitably dissipate, and he would be vanquished from public life as some type of pariah. The opposite has happened, however: Trump and MAGA movement are enduring if not even more ascendant as the ex-president is tied with President Biden. [Trump is also leading Biden in key swing states that Biden won in 2020]. This is more evidence of how Trumpism (like other forms of fascism) is a political and moral sickness throughout American society, a type of collective mass pathology and state of malignant normality, which is a deep cultural problem that is bigger than any one leader or party.
