He's MAGA. He's a Trump supporter. We've engaged regularly over the past few years, but only this past month did I put an argument against Trump in front of him that finally move him to the point where he won't vote for Trump. I found this fascinating.

These protests and demonstrations around the world the past 8 months have never really been about a "ceasefire." That's always been the great lie. These protests and demonstrations around the world these days past 8 months that have been about one thing, and one thing only: Hating on Israel.

The average American voter is pissed off. About a lot of stuff. And a lot of it is damn justified. Trump uses that anger to further divide us. For Biden to win, he must recognize that anger, listen to that anger, and use that anger to unite us.

Here's what we know as absolute fact, as the gospel truth: There are more Americans who oppose Trump than there are Americans who support him. If those Americans who oppose Trump vote, then Trump loses. Period. If they don't vote, then Trump wins. Period.

It's Pride month, and The Colorado Republican Party yesterday called on everyone to burn all LGBTQ flags. They publicly called for people in Colorado to commit a violent act. Don't turn away from this. Share this. People must see how radicalized the base of my former party has become.

Most media talkers say what they know their audience wants to hear. And most of us only go to media sources to get our beliefs confirmed. This is all making us a hell of a lot more polarized. And it ain't making us any smarter.

This MAGA Republican Party is a shrinking, dying national party. The Democratic Party has a unique opportunity to appeal to moderate & conservative NeverTrumper voters and grow as a national party. If they don't, a new party is coming.

We're both conservatives. I'm voting for Biden. He's voting for Trump. We didn't change each other's vote, but we did get each other to rethink some things. We need more conversations like this.

It's not just Trump's base. Damn near every Republican and most independents believe this trial and this indictment are unfair and it's all bullshit. It's not just Trump's base that feels that way. So any verdict will only confirm that belief.

Trump supporters have told me for six years that Trump is an asshole, but he's their asshole. To which I always respond: I don't care that Trump's an asshole. I don't. I care that he didn't have the decency to concede after he lost. I care that he lies as he breathes.

For those of us who want Trump defeated in November, it's on US to defeat him. A trial won't defeat him, a guilty verdict won't defeat him, trying to kick him off the ballot won't defeat him. We're gonna have to defeat him the old fashioned way: by out voting him.

What Nikki Haley did isn't a surprise. She did what Dan nearly every Republican has done these past eight years. She clung to her career. But all these Nikki Haley voters are there for the taking. But Joe Biden has to go take them.

Why would the United Nations hold a moment of silence yesterday for a man personally responsible for the deaths of tens of thousands of people? Because that man was head of a country allowed into the United Nations. And that's a problem.

I'll never vote for Trump. I'm still all in with Biden. But, just like every other Biden voter, I have my red line. A line, if Biden crosses, I couldn't vote for him either. He hasn't crossed it yet. But for me, if he continues to move away from Israel, I won't be able to vote for him either. I hope he doesn't.…

Tim Scott was asked six times over the weekend if he'd accept the results of the 2024 election. And six times he refused to say he would. This is now beyond Trump. My entire former political party is at war against our democracy. We can't let them get away with this.

Trump continues to say he won't accept the election results if he loses. This is what he did in 2020. He wants the American people to no longer trust our elections. Elections are the heartbeat of our democracy. If that heart stops beating, our democracy dies.
