NEW YORK — Set aside the polls, the fundraising numbers or Donald Trump s name recognition as metrics of his early dominance of the Republican presidential contest. He has what could
ballot, it could get interesting. former election lawyer. this is his own state party who is giving this huge tactical advantage to donald trump. so what it means is that ron desantis really has to temper and moderate his criticism of donald trump or he will find donald trump saying ron doesn t really mean this. he has already said he is going to support me for president, so don t take his criticism seriously. yes, hernandez voted for trump twice, along with her husband likes desantis too. they have to unite behind the nominee, no matter who it is. donald trump needs to support desantis. he is the front runner. that s what i feel. and you wouldn t vote for somebody that didn t sign the
nominees or resign and get replaced by another senator who would be added to these committees thank you very much appreciate that. what recourse do democrats have? there s no indication at all that diane feinstein will step down she s not running for re-election. what do they do? there s very little that democrats can do maybe they can do some things procedurally there s an informal rule called blue slips which allow votes on members that are judges favored by members of their own states maybe something you can do with that ruling or that informal rule, there s not much that can be done. a smart friend of mine who is an election lawyer, he put out something today saying that we need a 25th amendment for u.s. senators meaning in the ways that we have a 25th amendment rule for presidents who are incapacitated, can t serve in some way, shape or form, we need

he attached himself to the staff of jeffrey clark. jeffrey clark was the head of the environment and natural resources division who ultimately became this wannabe attorney general. wanted to perpetuate the big lie for trump if he could have the job. what s never really made sense about jeffrey clark and his rise to prominence, he s not an election lawyer. he has no prior experience but he s crafted this i m he not going to say not within the confines of the law but technically very succinctly crafted plan that the states could use to upset elections and return victory for trump. how that came out of jeffrey clark s mind was difficult to understand until you saw that ken had gone on to his desk. he has experience and written a very lengthy treatise.
