I'm gonna need some Rolaids to get me through this year, aren't I? Deep inside, I have this horrible feeling that SCOTUS will see things in 'rumps favor. It just cant be said enough...every single American must not sit this election out...we all must get involved somehow. Call your local Democratic office....volunteer and by all means, Vote.

I'm the most conservative guy you'll ever meet (at least on this forum), and there is no way I'm voting for "dictator on day one" in 2024. The small circle of normies that he had in his first term have all left him. If Haley doesn't win the nomination, I'm either voting for Biden or I'm sitting it out. Still not sure yet.

It's fine to be a conservative, but it's not fine to be a fascist. And that's what voting for Trump would mean...fascism for America. "Sitting it out" is voting for Trump. I hope the Republican party can find some decency, character, and ethical direction because right now, Comer, Jordan, Stefanik, Cotton and the rest of the rogues haven't done a damn thing for their constituents or the country. Their brand of revenge politics will hopefully grow tiresome. I think we need civil discourse from different points of view (a healthy GOP, not a vindictive one) and come to rational decisions that will have positive outcomes for ALL people, not just the rich. Repeal the Trump tax cuts. Leave women alone. End Citizens United. Instead of encouraging violence, encourage critical thinking. I know. I'm dreaming. End of rant.

The conundrum with being a conservative at this stage is that you DON'T have a party any more. The Republican party simply isn't conservative any longer. The extremists have spent the last couple of decades purging the GOP of "RINO's" (aka sensible conservatives) or driving them into hiding.

In my (moderate liberal opinion), if "conservatism" is to be preserved, the right-wing extremists need to be purged from their political offices everywhere. That means traditional conservatives holding their noses and voting for the Dem candidates where ever possible. If you're in a "purple" district, those seats are going to shift back to a mix within a cycle or two anyhow. Consider it political chemotherapy. Once the cancer has been excised from the body-politic, you can rebuild the conservative party from within, but you can't do it while they're there.

We need to stop putting an R next to Trump’s name (and other extremists) and put M for Maga instead. They are 2 different parties.

Calling them "M" or "F" won't change the fact that the "R" party infrastructure and fundraising supports them. There's no sunlight between them. If the "R's" don't like being called "M-Fs", they need to do the work to take their party back.

Well, on the other hand, we do have people like Haley, who has proven to be a very strong candidate. I think a lot of politicians out there are in it for themselves, and they get the impression right now that MAGAism is what's in. Should the tide shift, I predict many of them would drop MAGAism pretty quickly.

Brian, I respect your conservative ideals, even though I am far from conservative; but it seems to me that Biden is a decent, moderate Democrat who loves this country and respects its citizens. He knows how to negotiate and compromise because he’s been doing it his entire life. Please think about what not voting could do. Not voting or voting for a third-party candidate is going to usher us into fascism, and I’m sure you don’t want that. Also, keep in mind that although Nikki Haley is nowhere near as vulgar as Trump, she has agreed to implement Project 2025, which is essentially a means of turning America into a dictatorship. The woman can’t even admit what the Civil War was about, for God’s sake. I am a Democrat who was raised in a traditional Republican family, and believe me, we are not dealing with normal Republicans anymore. These folks have gone off the rails.

You’re much more optimistic about SCOTUS than I am. The six Republicans on the court (five of whom were appointed by presidents whom the majority of Americans voted against) are bought and paid for; every one of them lied under oath in their confirmation hearings, and (critically) now they know that we know all this. They’re an unelected super-legislature; they hate America more than half of ISIS does, and they’ve got no reason to pretend anymore.

I am not optimistic that SCOTUS will uphold Colorado. But even this Court is extremely unlikely to vote that Trump has absolute presidential immunity. Their rulings to date have not been particularly Trump friendly.

I hope you’re right. The thing is, I know John Roberts is the smartest political operative the Republican Party has, but I don’t think he’s really in charge anymore. We might be at the point in the movie where the secretive villain is found out so he just goes for it.

"The six Republicans on the court (five of whom were appointed by presidents whom the majority of Americans voted against) are bought and paid for..." I don't know about that - by virtue of their lifetime appointments, once they are ON the Court, the President who appointed them has no leverage. Trump, on the other hand, should he return to office and become Dictator-for-Life as he appears to be aiming for, will be able to do anything he wants to anyone he wants, up to and including death or imprisonment. I think they are smart enough to see that. So I can see them allowing him to stay on the ballot, while smacking down his "immunity from prosecution" attempt.

Expand full comment

Jay, let me ask you - suppose you were a conservative Justice on the Supreme Court, what would you do? I know that the argument is very strong to disqualify Trump based on the 14th Amendment. Bill Barr recently published an opinion criticizing the Colorado Supreme Court, but the gist of his argument was that such a decision must be decided on the federal level, not the state. It seemed that he did not have an issue with the beef of the argument at all.

But on the other hand, this is a candidate that has roughly a third of the country ready to give up their lives for him. You don't think that disqualifying him from the ballot may raise the ire of tens of millions of people in this country and possibly put our country in danger?

This is a question that's really been troubling me.

I can live with them getting violent as long as it does not cause a civil war, which I think you may be underestimating the danger of happening. Don't forget that to MAGAts, Trump is like god. And we're talking about roughly 100,000,000 people, many of them gun owners. I think it's a recipe for disaster. Especially, now that more knowledgeable commenters here have pointed out, it's not even so clear-cut to remove him from the ballot based on the 14th amendment.

Definitely a valid point. Both scenarios would be a disaster. The best solution would obviously be to beat him at the polls, which I can't believe wouldn't happen anyway.

I think 100M is a gross exaggeration, Brian. Where did you get that number? Biden earned 81M votes; Trump 74M in 2020. I believe that split is even greater now FOR Biden.

Personal ruin, and for what?

For me, the fact that Biden has been supportive of Israel is one of his biggest redeeming factors. I don't really understand the leftists who celebrated Hamas's butchering and rape of women and children, and then start crying crocodile tears when Israel tries to eradicate these terrorists from their border, while doing all that is practically possible to spare the life of the human shields that Hamas embeds themselves in, such as by designating target and evacuation zones and dropping leaflets. Hamas certainly didn't do that.

Well, Trump never managed to get less than around a 30% approval rating, even after all the terrible things he did. So that 30% of the population is with him, through fire and water. There are roughly 335M people in the US. 30% of 335M is 100M.

Those polls are usually based on info from likely voters, a far smaller subset than the nation's population as a whole. And there's a healthy chunk of that population who are ineligible to vote, mostly being those under 18 at election time.

All the more reason to get out and vote against Trump and all the MAGAt politicians. Any non-blue vote or no show, is a vote for Trump and fuels his cult. The closer the election numbers, the more ammunition for Trump’s next claims of voter fraud.

In no world will Trump accept a defeat in 2024. He’s already started planting seeds and is now even more desperate. Our best bet, to minimize a violent uprising, is to have an overwhelming majority turnout and win for democrats. Knowing the Democrats are firmly in control, would give rioters the most pause and fear of being prosecuted. Trump losing big in both his court cases and election bid, may not bring them to reality, but might just put the fear of serious consequences in them. They currently believe that Trump will regain power and protect them. That’s a hard sell from a prison cell and a total losers position. Without Trump’s constant lies and incitement, the vast majority of MAGAS, will lose their enthusiasm and their attention will wane. The government would be wise to have some new attention getter in the ready. Helping them to move on to a less violent and destructive obsession.

Honestly--"throwing him off the ballot"?? This is not a whimsical decision--it is clearly the law, according to the 14th amendment.

Expand full comment

Frankly it’s not. It’s about qualifications for office.

There’s nothing about putting an unqualified person on a ballot.

If it was unconstitutional to have unqualified candidates, states probably wouldn’t have write-in candidates.

And that’s not me saying it, that’s essentially the conclusion by left leaning state supreme courts in Minnesota and Michigan.

Colorado got around the argument because arguably Colorado law goes further than the Constitution and affirmatively requires candidates to be qualified.

So you think it would be better to keep him on the ballot and then if he wins, say sorry can’t serve?? We need to put the horse before the carriage. If he cannot serve, he should NOT be allowed on the ballot!

The biggest hurdle I see is though he is obviously directly connected to and inflamed Jan. 6th., he has NOT been convicted of a crime---as I am told a hundred times a day by his following.

It’s a common point. But the Constitution does not require a *conviction* for insurrection, it only requires that they have engaged in it. The disqualification is not a criminal penalty, so why require a criminal level of proof?

Expand full comment

And several pontificators have claimed that since both the Colorado court and the Maine Sec State spent days of deliberation over whether Queensman had in fact engaged in insurrection, and having determined "yes he did", those two states are bound to follow the law as writ.

I could be persuaded otherwise if there appeared a superior argument but I've not seen it yet.

Expand full comment

Oh, he lies all day every day, but he has not given, in court and under oath, a false answer to a direct question. That's what perjury is. He can go on and on and on with lies everywhere else and not be guilty of perjury. Get him on the stand after he swears to tell the truth and THEN he lies (which he absolutely WILL do - he cannot help himself) - THAT is perjury. And any attorney who allows him on the witness stand in his criminal trials will be committing malpractice.

I so despise Trump, I find it quite surprising that Trump and Biden are within striking distance of each other in the polls. How is it that Trump is slightly ahead of Biden??

After all is said and done, Biden is not as big of a disaster as I thought he would be. Despite wrecking the economy in his first year of office by throwing trillions of dollars at an already stimulated environment, he (or his Fed) has managed to by and large get things back under control. And I was very pleasantly surprised at his steadfast support for Israel in her time of crisis. So I would have really expected him to score higher in the polls.

I don’t believe the polls.

Expand full comment

I agree. Most of them are junk; they do not even specify the demographics that they are polling, and they poll small numbers of people, usually 1000 or fewer. How can that give us a picture of what America is thinking? It’s absolutely ridiculous.

Expand full comment

Biden did not wreck the economy; the pandemic wrecked the economy, and he got it back under control by addressing the pandemic, which Trump was never able to do. Even now, our inflation rate is the lowest in the western world. There are still countries in Europe suffering through double digit inflation. Biden is a very very experienced legislator and negotiator.

Expand full comment

You can blame it on the pandemic, but when Trump left office, we did not have the inflation of 2021-2022. And the first thing that Biden did when he came into office was poor trillions of dollars on the economy. I'm not saying that it was entirely his fault, but he definitely poured fuel on the fire, and I think (and I thought then too) that it was extremely short-sighted.

Again, to his credit, he's got things back under control. Or at least he can take credit for Powell doing so.

Expand full comment

A lot of this inflation had to do with supply chain issues and other factors related to what the pandemic did economically. Here’s the key...the pandemic was a worldwide event, and it affected every country similarly, with shocking amounts of inflation, plus businesses shut down and people out of work. Had Trump stayed in office, it would’ve been even worse. Also keep in mind that those tariffs he put in place had a very negative effect on the economy. For reasons that I don’t understand, Biden has left some of those tariffs in place, but he was able to get things back under control with regard to inflation.

Expand full comment

Again, I agree that it was a confluence of events. But inflation started shooting through the roof right after Biden's stimulus act. I recall columns from many respected, non-partisan analysts at the time who could not fathom how trillions of dollars being injected into the economy would not be harmful. And it was. It's pretty hard to ignore.

I always question who these pollsters are asking, and what is the sample size and where are they located and what did they really ask them?

Thank you once again for your in depth analysis and also for the optimistic options. I very much hope that you're right on those.

I believe that you are on target about the SCOTUS's rulings. As illogical as it might seem, the 14th amendment does not explicitly bar an insurrectionist from the ballot, only from holding office. Since such a disqualification can hypothetically be removed by Congress (and WOULD be if the GOP got a super-majority, although that won't happen) then I expect the SCOTUS to go full-metal textualist and kick the can down the road to see if Trump actually wins (God forbid). At that point I would expect the 20th amendment, Section 3, to be invoked to make the VP-elect the office-holder until Trump becomes qualified, if ever. If the justices do go down that route, it will open a whole new can of worms. Imagine a 32-year-old getting their name onto the ballot as a presidential candidate, winning the election, only to have to wait and let their VP execute the office until their 35th birthday.

In their abortion rulings, Leonard Leo's court is in full cry. It is going to take federal legislation embodying abortion as a fundamental right, or a new court that is willing to revisit Dobbs, to put the brakes on this. I must admit that I have always been confused about how "equal protection under the law" is being served by these Draconian abortion laws. I suppose that the courts could claim that IF a man ever gets pregnant that they would be subject to the same laws. Maybe the answer is going to come through a scientific breakthrough in which a developing fetus can easily be removed and grown outside the mother's womb in an artificial one. That would not be an abortion in any technical sense.

Hi Jay, I really appreciate all the hard work you do. Your pieces are smart, insightful, and have helped me push back against MAGA talking points coming from my family and coworkers.

By refusing to ban Nazi content from their platform, Substack undermines your hard work.

By allowing Nazis to monetize content on their platform, Substack lets them turn hate into funding.

By hosting legitimate, valuable content, such as yours alongside Nazi content, Substack gives Nazis the appearance of legitimacy.

This is the subject of a lot of internal discussion with substack and top writers, and I am waiting to see what comes of it.

Sit tight. If there is a superior alternative platform I have not seen it yet. You'd want something just about the same in terms of function (if not better – Substacks phone app is less than optimal, for instance) with the added assurance that nazis will be thrown out as soon as they appear.

The other argument for staying is being forced to retreat by nazis is on its own not a good look. Sure, Substack is deliberately promoting nazis on its platform for its own profit, but long loud vehement protest from its established stackers could prove decisive. And that would be a famous win.

Former President Donald Trump on Saturday suggested the Civil War could have been avoided through “negotiation,” arguing that the fight to end slavery in the US was ultimately unnecessary and that Abraham Lincoln should have done more to avoid bloodshed.

In fact, there were a series of efforts before the Civil War began to cut a deal to save the Union. But the future of slavery in the South could not be settled through compromise and the nation went to war with itself. Trump did not say how he would have prevented the conflict, which he also called “so horrible but so fascinating.”

There are two things guaranteed to happen every single day:

1. the Sun will rise every morning and go down every evening.
