Re: Republican Voters becomes even more Trumpish
I read that earlier today. Strange article for the NYTs. Reasonably balanced. Don't think there was more than one or two cheap shots against Trump and his voters.

Re: Republican Voters becomes even more Trumpish
Editors must be getting bored and even wondering why their hate campaigns are not working? Sex, Russia, Stormy, 25th Amendment, Illegals???
Maybe just to gin up their Liberal Fascist readers?

Re: Republican Voters becomes even more Trumpish
As noted already, yes, there were some cheap shots. But mostly a simple, good description of the Repubs firming up solidly pro-Trump.
I especially liked the wording from one local guy:
“Let’s see,” said John Westling, 70, of Princeton, Minn., reciting a list of the president’s accomplishments that he said no one in the media wants to talk about. “Economy booming, check. Unemployment down, check. Border security being addressed, check. Possible end to the Korean War that started when I was 3 years old, 68 years ago, check.”
“I suspect that if Trump walked across Lake Mille Lacs,” Mr. Westling added, “the media would announce, ‘Trump can’t swim!’”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We all know that Mr. Westling is correct.
Thanks again, Spud.
