Correction, “GROOMING HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS WITH ALCOHOL”

[McTrollson]

Every Trump voter is going to see Desantis partying with high school girls and think “Hell yeah, this DeSantis guy is a champ.” In what universe is the GOP base concerned with the propriety of any of this?

When Clinton was doing it?

As far as general election could potentially help grandpa Joe keep some the suburb Moms who couldn’t stand Trump but might vote for Romney types.

RT: Truth SocialI did Nothing wrong, but Pomerantz is a real SLEAZEBAG who disrespected the District Attorney and the LAW! Don’t forget, he was Crooked Hillary Clinton’s expensive lawyer, and he went to the then D.A., Vance, & made a deal to become a pro bono prosecutor and “GET TRUMP.” He was also the lawyer before the D.A.’s Office for the fully paid, on time & on schedule with not even a default, bank in question, & settled a nasty case. There was no victim, the bank made a lot of money. Convict Murderers!

Is everybody getting ready for commentary on the State of the Union Speech and a possible Review? I never liked harsh critics, because usually they are unable to do anything themselves. Perhaps this is a different situation, but let’s hope all goes well tonight!

Looking at the expensive fence that was just put up around the Capitol Building, but not wanted at our Border. Fortunately, I built hundreds of miles of Wall, and had the safest and best Southern Border in History, by far!

Big stumble on Schumer. He called him Minority Leader. Can’t do that! Each time he’s going off script, he’s making a mistake. Hopefully he will improve!

If Democracy is unbroken, he should stop the Weaponization of Republicans by the FBI and the Justice Department!

[realDonaldTrump]

Why did they need the Electoral Reform Act? The Vice President was told he had no choice, but to send the votes back to the Old Crow, Mitch McConnell. The lawyers convinced the Vice President to do something he did not have to do. He should have sent the votes back to the State Legislatures for checking.

@CaffeineNeeded

FYI those last few truths seem more important than usual. Trump is going hard at DeSantis, including a photo of DeSantis maybe drinking with some students he taught?

The DeSantis creepo stuff was reported awhile ago (though reading this again now and seeing they mention the photo, it’s odd they chose not to republish it or even link to it):

Pranks, Parties and Politics: Ron DeSantis’s Year as a Schoolteacher...

He was already a Lost Cause guy:

Danielle Pompey remembers Mr. DeSantis, a Florida native and recent Yale grad, being an outsider like her, a New Yorker with a thick accent to match. But Ms. Pompey, who is Black and was on an academic scholarship, said she felt that Mr. DeSantis treated her worse because of her race.

“Mr. Ron, Mr. DeSantis, was mean to me and hostile toward me,” said Ms. Pompey, who graduated in 2003. “Not aggressively, but passively, because I was Black.”

She recalled Mr. DeSantis teaching Civil War history in a way that sounded to her like an attempt to justify slavery.

“Like in history class, he was trying to play devil’s advocate that the South had good reason to fight that war, to kill other people, over owning people — Black people,” she said. “He was trying to say, ‘It’s not OK to own people, but they had property, businesses.’”
…
Ms. Minis, who is white and was in the same history class as Ms. Pompey, also remembers debating issues around the Civil War. Mr. DeSantis wasn’t so much politically opinionated, she said, but, in her view, factually wrong. She remembers him claiming that every city in the South had burned, even though she knew her hometown, Savannah, had not and she called him out on it.

Another student who requested anonymity because he feared repercussions for his job said Mr. DeSantis’s takes on the Civil War were the subject of so much talk that students made a satirical video about him at the time for the video yearbook.

The video, which was reviewed by The Times, includes a short snippet in which a voice purporting to be Mr. DeSantis is heard saying: “The Civil War was not about slavery! It was about two competing economic systems. One was in the North. …” while a student dozes in class. (A student voiced the role of Mr. DeSantis, because students did not have any actual footage of him, according to a student who helped put it together.)

And the photo:

Several students recalled that Mr. DeSantis was a frequent presence at parties with the seniors who lived in town. Most spoke about socializing with him on the condition of anonymity because they feared backlash for speaking publicly about it.

“As an 18-year-old, I remember thinking, ‘What are you doing here, dude?’” one former student said.

Ms. Minis said that when she was a senior, the fall after Mr. DeSantis left, she found a memo on a teacher’s desk reminding the staff that fraternizing with students was inappropriate, even after they graduated.

“‘That’s got to be about Mr. DeSantis!’ That’s what I remember everyone saying,” she said. Other students remembered at least one other teacher who had socialized with students that year.

Last year, Hill Reporter, a blog put out by a Democratic super PAC, published a photograph of Mr. DeSantis taken with several female students from Darlington in 2002, one of whom was holding what appeared to be a bottle of beer.

Two former students, both women, remembered him attending at least two parties where alcohol was served, but they said that the parties took place after graduation and that they were not bothered by his presence at the time, although they question it now. “It was his first job out of Yale, he was cute. We didn’t really think too much about it,” one of the former students said.

[McTrollson]

OK, he’s not wrong here.

[realDonaldTrump]

He seems to be very angry, shouting into the mic, when he’s trying to come across as conciliatory. Perhaps somebody should walk up to the dais, tap him on the shoulder, and say, “Be cool!”

Kevin McCarthy, who is a great guy, is having a seriously hard time staying awake. I give him credit for being true to himself and the cause. He is just not interested in what is being fed to the audience.
