These midterms are definitely going to be a rollercoaster ride for Trumpets.


Trump's hand-picked candidate defeated in Georgia primary in stinging rebuke​

Gov. Brian Kemp of Georgia easily dispatched Donald Trump's hand-picked challenger on Tuesday in a Republican primary that demonstrated the limits of the former president and his conspiracy-fuelled politics in a critical swing state.

Kemp will face Democrat Stacey Abrams this fall in what will be one of the nation's most consequential governor's races.

The results, combined with the loss of the Trump-backed candidate for secretary of state, served as a stinging rebuke for the former president in a race that he prioritized above almost all others.

Was is strictly necessary to editorialize in the headline?

Isn't "stinging rebuke" kinda subjective? And what leads the author to conclude that "rebuking" Trump was any part of the motivation? Y'know, evidence?

Which, sadly, contains not a single shred of evidence.

That was my point, pointing out that it was from the CBC. I was try’n to be subtle. Many of their stories contain some kind of evidence of something but not necessarily what the stories about, especially when it comes to politics.

The CBC is its own entity in its own universe located somewhere past the compass to the upper left of the graph:

Mike Pence's big night

With his man prevailing over Donald Trump's chosen candidate, Mike Pence may well mark Tuesday's Georgia gubernatorial primary as the moment when his 2024 presidential bid got real.

Pence's ex-boss, the former president who once was seen as a kingmaker in GOP politics, gave his full-throated support to former US Sen. David Perdue, who was humiliated in a blowout loss to incumbent Republican Gov. Brian Kemp.

Pence meanwhile, in a rare act of open defiance against Trump, burnished his political resume and showed the first hints of an independent streak by backing the winner, who now goes on to vie against Democratic nominee Stacy Abrams.
