Iran gets a bogie for the first attack on Qatar?

And couldn’t have this have been clarified by Trump as an Israeli overstep at any time earlier today?

“… But this modern media strategy is achieving what the White House appears to prioritize: audience engagement.

“Over a four day period, the videos that we put out had over 3 billion impressions,” said a senior White House official, who was granted anonymity to speak candidly about the administration’s communications strategy. “That blows away anything we’ve ever done in the second term.”

… The White House says it’s a winning message. “Polls show that a lot of young people are actually somewhat supportive of this war and our goal is to deliver content to them,” said the senior White House official, who is involved in the video efforts.

“What we’re doing is not disrespecting the American troops. To the contrary, we’re highlighting all the great work — the heroic work that they’ve been doing with these videos. We do it in a way that captivates an audience.”…”

This whole story is hideously pathetic but there’s no way polls are actually showing young people support this war. Maybe the groypers the WH is targeting, but I guarantee you the vast majority of young people either detest or don’t have a clue what we’re doing.

Collins is trailing Platner by 6 points in the polls and leading Mills ( Schumer's choice ) by 1 point so she needs a lifeline from Trump and the GQP

For all the controversy surrounding Platner (and much of the concern is justified, imo) I don't think there's much doubt that he would be a stronger candidate against Collins than Mills in the fall. Mills is about the same age as Collins and comes across as a bland, status quo, establishment Dem type who isn't likely to generate much support beyond the regular Democratic numbers (think Cheri Beasley). Platner is not only younger but more dynamic, personable, and has the advantages of being the "outsider" who can shake things up and bring a fresh face to Maine politics with a working-class focus, which in the current political climate would likely be a very appealing message almost anywhere (look at Talarico in Texas). OTOH, there are those questions about him, which likely wouldn't hurt him all that much in the fall but does leave open the question of just how liberal and progressive he'll actually be if he's elected.

Platner is outworking both Mills and Collins. He is conducting SRO town halls all across the state and answers questions about his past directly and humbly. If he loses to Mills it will not be because he did not and meet the voters and let them judge his policies and character.

If he wins, I do not see him becoming a status quo meek and mild Schumer lap dog or a whacked out loose cannon like Fetterman.

We need to get these old ass people out of Congress at any cost. We would be better with Big Balls in the Senate than with Susan Collins. At least he would publicly own his stupidity and be rapidly voted out rather than the Collins wolf in sheep's clothing routine that lasts 40 years.
 


He has a talent for recycling Trump chestnuts (we hold the cards) into his own Hegsethian pronouncement.
