We need to seriously ask, is Maggie Haberman suffering from cognitive decline? Should she be replaced with someone with a bit more mental acuity? These are hard questions that need answering.

Solid reasons from Mike Madrid why Biden can win in November based on data and numbers, not feels. Absolutely worth reading.

"The word "bias" has lost its meaning and seems to be "you said something that goes against my views."
It's not biased to point out Trump lies endlessly. It's not biased to report questions about Biden's age have metastasized, threaten his viability.
Facts are facts."

Small sample of things #Project2025 wants to get rid of:
-Abortion
-Pornography
-Overtime pay
-Social Security
-Veterans' disability benefits
-19th Amendment (women voting)
If that doesn't hit every demographic, IDK what would.

Agenda 47 plan is on Trump's campaign website. The goals are to hollow out the government, transfer power to Trump giving him the ability to destroy opposition with bothering with those pesky checks and balances. It's unhinged and wants the Constitution trashed.

Predictably we are hearing sanctimonious outrage about why should Las Vegas even exist (because it's hot in the summer and aren't they irresponsible.) This from people who live where winters are brutal. Such people waste energy heating their homes! Maybe they should just move?

Excellent point from 538. Biden needs to appeal to voters outside the base too.

It was 120 in Vegas today and the heat wave hasn't peaked yet.
If you visit and stay on The Strip, do not attempt to walk to the next casino. The distances are way longer than they appear.
Don't even think of hiking in the desert.
We deal with the heat by staying indoors.

Madrid, Elliot Morris (538), others said wait ten days for the polls to allow for nonresponse bias. Good call.
It’s still very close and we can absolutely win in November. Trump is hugely vulnerable on Project 2025 and abortion.

"Trump’s campaign has spent three years thinking it was running against Joe Biden. Well — if this set of events transpires — he’s not. He’s running against someone young and vital. His entire plan of battle goes out the window.
But that’s not the case for Democrats."

Our job is to make the presidential campaign solely about Donald Trump, his criminality, and Project 2025. That's how we win.
Right now, it's about Joe Is Old. That needs to change.

Project 2025 is a far-right plan to replace federal employees with MAGA loyalists whose loyalty solely is to Trump so he can be a dictator. Their goal is to destroy and dismantle the federal government as we know it and replace it with Christianist lackeys.

But here's the thing, and I'll say it as someone who monitors and analyzes media: the bad media coverage isn't going to let up. It's going to drive his poll numbers down and it's going to be relentless. There's blood in the water, and maybe it's not fair, but that's the reality right now.

538: Biden has better odds than Harris overall
"known downsides for Biden currently outweigh known upsides, chief risk is a “hard” risk
Replacing Biden with Harris would introduce uncertainty; Democrats would be betting her “soft” risks aren’t as bad as Biden’s."

This is huge. Rep. Clyburn's (D-SC) early support for Biden absolutely helped Biden win in 2020. He is hugely and rightfully respected by all.
Clyburn just said on MSNBC he would support Harris if Biden steps down.
