By the way, Democrats have now flipped 27 legislative seats in Trump 2.0.

Republicans are still stuck at zero.

Even in 2017-18, the GOP managed to flip a few. This time, just a goose egg, despite several good chances.

Analysis | George W. Bush's Iraq invasion was preceded by months of meticulous planning, and yet history regards it as a failure. Perhaps Donald Trump's loose, improvised approach to invading Iran will be the key to its success.

Democrats say Donald Trump has spiked prices, taken massive bribes, started a war, and killed American civilians. These swing voters say that’s missing the point.

Joe Biden never made the case to Congress that Iran is an imminent threat to the United States. Why should President Trump have to?

Republicans have caused total chaos in Dallas County. It's instructive.

Whether or not Trump attempts some sort of executive order to nationalize election administration, Republicans have an endless number of paths to create absolute mayhem in November.

A Dallas County judge extended voting hours in Dallas because of confusion at the polls.

Paxton asked the state supreme court to overturn that decision and now it is stayed. Total confusion.

We're all stuck in this timeline -- until we change it. I intend to be part of that effort.

All is not lost, amigo. At least not yet.
