The unemployment rate for young people is the lowest it has been since the 1960s. Median weekly earnings, inflation-adjusted, for young people are also the highest they have ever been (other than 2020, when data isn't comparable) It is indeed a golden job market.
The gaslighting continues.

If you had told me four years ago that Dick Cheney, Liz Cheney, Mike Pence, Mitt Romney, Chris Christie and Adam Kinzinger wouldn’t be supporting the Republican nominee for President I would’ve never believed you.

To answer some FAQs I've gotten: 1. Yes, I am aware of Musk's tweet. 2. Yes, it is a remarkably similar situation to my client Ben Brody, who sued Musk a few months ago after being falsely accused of a crime in one of Musk's tweets. 3. Yes, I'm interested in talking to him.

The same week Trump gets a family member to co-chair the GOP (in an effort to use donor funds for his legal troubles*), he welcomes an autocrat into his home with open arms. The Republican party isn't on life support, it's gone.
Trump with Orban tonight: “There’s nobody that’s better, smarter or a better leader than Viktor Orban. He’s fantastic…He’s a non-controversial figure because he says, ‘This is the way it’s going to be,’ and that’s the end of it. Right? He’s the boss. No, he’s a great leader.”

More awful journalistic malpractice.
Biden won by 75 points. Trump won by 35 points. Yet here is how the New York Times frames it.

Call me crazy, but I THINK I see a pattern in allegations against Biden vs allegations against Trump. The first always get weaker & weaker as more info is uncovered. The 2nd always get stronger. I'm sure that has nothing to do with the intrinsic character of the 2 candidates.

The inherent edge Trump has in a "cognitive decline" framework is that there was no point in the past when he was well-informed about any question of public policy so there has genuinely been no "decline" over time in his comprehension or recall.
