Imagine this

  John, I want you to close your eyes for a minute. Imagine this: You wake up on November 9 and you turn on the TV. As you’re making your coffee and getting ready to head to work, news outlets start reporting that Democrats have lost the Senate majority by just a few thousand votes. N…

What Trump said in Pennsylvania:

  John, you need to see this: Donald Trump headlined a huge MAGA rally over the weekend to support Dr. Oz, his handpicked candidate for Pennsylvania’s open Senate seat. In front of thousands of his far-right supporters, Trump doubled-down on his endorsement. It’s obvious why: Dr. Oz w…
