"45% of undecided voters name prices and inflation as the most important problem facing the country, and another 18% pick jobs and the economy. That’s 63% naming prices or the economy"

“It’s designed at making frustrated Republican voters who are a little soft right now more frustrated and more soft. It’s like openly scratching at a sore that we already sort of have in a certain way, which is smart on their part.” politico.com/newsletters/pla…
Sure, YOU had to pay more for gas, groceries, & everything else, but at least Trump made millions.
"As Trump brags about U.S. oil and gas company profits, his stocks gained millions during Iran war"

Trump and Big Oil profit while Americans have to spend $100+ billion more on gas.
Our new report shows that Trump's own oil and gas stock holdings are up to as much as $81.6 million amid his Iran War.
Trump doesn't “give a damn” that Americans are suffering.

🚨 In a major reversal, the Cleveland Plain Dealer decides to endorse #AmyActon over #VivekRamaswamy: "Reject the debasement Ramaswamy has brought to this campaign." "And our endorsement of Acton rests on more than Ramaswamy’s failure to meet a basic standard of decency. She has earned consideration on her own record, her preparation and her commitment to the people she seeks to serve." #OHGov #OHPol
"We cannot remain silent: Amy Acton for governor"

Former president Barack Obama said that Ohio Republican Vivek Ramaswamy showed desperation for the spotlight and a lack of decency by airing a campaign ad that featured the long-estranged mother of his Democratic rival Amy Acton. wapo.st/48e61BB
Mathew Helman -- also mathelman.bsky.social retweeted
Amy Acton is a compassionate, hardworking leader who will always put Ohio families first. Ohio deserves a governor who leads with decency and integrity, and I’m proud to stand with Amy. @amyactonoh

Dear @LahnHQ,
Can you explain why @ZachLahn requested to have his #Iowa ballot mailed to him in #Kansas?
Seems a relevant question. #carpetbagger
#IAGov #iapolitics #iasen #ia01 #ia02 #ia03 @IAStartingLine @LauraRBelin @brianneDMR @HeartlandSignal #DesMoines #ElectionTwitter
You can't make this shit up.
“GOP Gov candidate, Zach Lahn, cast an Iowa ballot in the 2024 general election. But voting records show he requested that his ballot be mailed to him in Kansas.”
@RobSandIA is going to smoke this guy on election day.

Another passage Trump gives to the @dscc, @dccc, and @DemGovs where the Democratic candidate just has to tack on a "I'm [name] and I approve this message"

Venues are *pulling out* of hosting Vivek Ramaswamy for his final bus tour across Ohio.
“We’re getting calls that people don’t want him there,” a top Ohio Republican says. “It’s that damn ad.”

Is there one single day without a Dumpster Fire @DavidFlippoNV scandal out of #NV02??
(Makes sense that Dave Flippo and Dumpster Fire have the same initials.)
#Nevada @nvdems @Teresa4Nevada @rgj @MiniRacker @RalstonReports
🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Nevada Republican David Flippo's campaign issued $28.8K in refund checks to 10 family members.
None cashed them. The campaign erased the refunds—then those same relatives gave again.
My investigation for @NevadaNewsViews
🔗 nevadanewsandviews.com/exclu…
ALT Table of ten Flippo family-connected donors showing their 2023 contributions, August 2024 refunds, refunds reported uncashed on Dec. 31, 2024, refund cancellations in 2025, and contributions to his 2026 campaign.
