And Democrats, don’t feel too self-righteous here. If he was on your team, most of you would like him too. You may deny it, but you’re lying to yourself.

Letting sleaze slide to keep your guy in power is not quite the same as liking. But point taken as big city Democrat mayors who are bent as a nine Bob note secure re-election.
It’s not a bad thing that party loyalty isn’t wide or deep enough in this country to keep a person like Trump in power. Would enough MPs have moved against Boris Johnson if his antics hadn’t become an electoral liability? Probably not but he did.

Biden was held to a higher standard, if Trump gurgles nonsense, forgets who everyone is and walks into a store cupboard, it's another day at the office. His supporters don't expect any better.

Marina Hyde sums up the last week or so:

Trump is furious with the WSJ owner, Rupert Murdoch, and threatening to “sue his ass off”. Oh please don’t, Mr President! His ass is 94 years old and incredibly wrinkled. Also, half of Britain’s political class still lives up it. Then again, perhaps Trump v Murdoch is very much the desiccated-dick-waving contest the world … wants? Needs? Will have to endure?

Actual Speaker of the House of Representatives. Economy is hot, cut interest rates. Completely wrong logic, but what you get when you stick two talking points together.
