Notable Quote of the Day ([link removed])

“Four years ago today, 8,879 people crammed into an arena in Toledo, Ohio, and waved signs and pumped fists and jumped up and down and shrieked at the sight of the man Republicans the week before had tapped as their candidate for president. …

The frenzied scene kicked off the finale of a frenetic Wednesday, the itinerary taking Trump from an extraordinary late morning news conference in Miami to a boisterous late afternoon rally in Scranton, Pennsylvania, to the spectacle of the nightcap in Toledo—three swing-state stops in one wild 12-hour span. …

Now, though, Trump is no longer a novelty but an incumbent running for reelection, his approval ratings are a shade above 40 percent, he’s trailing the 77-year-old Democratic warhorse Biden by double digits in polls, and the gap seems to be widening. And if you’re looking for a single date that exemplifies the contrast between this campaign and that one, you might zero in on July 27.”
