I really don't want to get ahead of myself. I really don't.

But between the Hunter Biden smear story completely imploding upon itself and Trump's 3 am rage tweet session, I really am getting the sense of things falling into place now (at least as it relates to the election itself, not what might unfold afterwards). I really do.

I feel the bow breaking, the ice cracking, the burden finally giving way.

Don't hate me. But I'm feeling okay about Tuesday.

At least Tuesday itself.

...They're moving it to the WH because I think he plans to "declare" victory from the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office, thinking it will have better optics than at a victory party at one of his hotels. Just a hunch.

In the past week is the coup de grace. He can’t tout “the economy” with those bad numbers. And it’s a reminder to all those white male and retiree supporters that they don’t need 4 more years of volatility and zero interest rates.

Friday news dump to get amplified over the weekend.
Monday is too late. In fact, today is too late.
You're right. All their plots have flopped so far.
And there's a good chance they've got nothing left.
You'd think if they were serious, they would have
mounted an actual campaign. But instead it seems
they're just winging it. Lazy? Stupid? Yeah, both.
