Damn...That Sasse recording was outstanding. I don't know much about the background when/where/why but it seems like a prepared statement; no background noise, no "um" or "uh." Was it a phone call? Just talking into his Iphone during halftime of an NFL game?
It seems more like a "leak" than a leak.
It was a conference calls with some supporters. I don't know if it's on this recording, but he was asked why he criticizes the president, and then launched into this.
there were 17,000 supporters involved, so they had to know it was 100% gonna leak.
may have been calculated for a future "move up"
He's absolutely a candidate in teh future, and he is to be reckoned with for the D's.
i heard people talking today that he is running for the white house in 2024. this may be his way of distancing himself from trump. but it is too late. he can never wash that stink off.
He never embraced Trump. He is in the same camp as Romney.
but he's voted in lockstep with him and McConnell.....
He is a republican. But he has avoided the Trump stain. He'll be a formidable candidate i think.
As a Nebraska resident and registered voter I will be happy to vote against him. Our local congressman is Don Bacon a real ass kising piece of shit. It gets interesting with their lawn signs together....

he voted against impeaching trump. he allowed the shit show to continue to save his own skin. do you not think that will be a huge target on his back during a campaign? if i were his opponent next cycle i would go out of my way to remind him and remind the public of that fact.
"i appreciate your criticism of my record. but i, and every one of these people here this evening remember that you failed to vote for impeachment."
every damn time i would hammer him with that.
to me there is nothing worse than a person who publicly defends trump, publicly votes with him or votes to defend him, but talks shit on him in private. he must own his support of trump, or get out of politics. trust me, he is going to be hit with that, and that is going to discredit him long term. for his entire career.

Yup.

I'd say maybe impeachment hangs on him. It will for Democratic voters, but that's not the right and center. It wasn't overwhelmingly popular at any point, I don't believe. So I don't know that it dings him up too badly.
As far as General Kelly, I think he's supposed to be on the record at CNN tomorrow. I'm guessing the CNN article was a teaser for the show, but we shall see.

'Captain Covid': crowdsurfing Democrat tries to stir Black support for Trump
When Vernon Jones, a Black Democratic state representative from Georgia,
crossed party lines to deliver a passionate endorsement of Donald Trump
at the Republican national convention, the party greeted him like a
rock star. Now comes evidence the label has gone to his head.
At
a Trump rally in Macon, Georgia, on Friday night, Jones launched
arguably the most ill-advised and dangerous crowdsurf since the electro
dance legend Steve Aoki broke a concertgoer’s neck in a dinghy.
Thumbs
raised and not wearing a mask, the 59-year-old lawmaker launched
himself into a mostly maskless audience. Riding a sea of red Maga hats,
packed tightly together in contravention of Centers for Diseases Control
and Prevention Covid-19 social distancing guidelines, the grinning
Jones was passed overhead from deplorable to deplorable, to use a term
for Trump supporters Jones cited in a tweet defending the stunt.
“Yes, I surfed that crowd!” Jones wrote. “To the haters – stay mad! You’ll be even more mad come 3 November.”
On social media, reaction was swift and brutal. One Twitter user dubbed Jones “Captain Covid”. Others denounced him as an idiot and a loser, living in fairytale land.
Republicans
hope Jones, who was first elected to the Georgia state house in 1992,
can help shore up the Black Republican vote in his state. Trump won
Georgia from Hillary Clinton by more than five points in 2016, but
recent polls show the president trailing Joe Biden by almost one and a half points.
Race
has also emerged as a key theme in Georgia’s tightly contested US
Senate contests, in which both of the Democratic candidates, Raphael
Warnock and Jon Ossoff, hold narrow leads, according to Quinnipiac polling this week.
One of the Republican incumbents, David Perdue, was involved in an incendiary moment at Trump’s Macon rally when he mangled the name of Kamala Harris, Biden’s running mate, the first Black woman on a major party presidential ticket.
Perdue’s campaign claimed it was an innocent mistake but Ossoff, in an interview with MSNBC, attacked his opponent for “vile, race-baiting trash talk”.
In
the other race, a special election in which Warnock, a Black pastor,
faces both the Republican incumbent Kelly Loeffler and Doug Collins, a
serving Republican congressman, the spectre of QAnon looms large. Loeffler has embraced the endorsement of the far-right congressional candidate Marjorie Taylor Greene, an enthusiastic peddler of baseless QAnon theories who has expressed racist views in social media posts.
At the Republican convention in August, as one of a number of first-night speakers of color to deliver a similar message, Jones tore into Democrats’ handling of racial issues.
“Why
is a lifelong Democrat speaking at the Republican national convention?”
he said, in a controversial speech he later said he intended to be “a
culture shock”.
“The Democratic party does not
want black people to leave their mental plantation. We’ve been forced to
be there for decades and generations.”
Jones resigned his Georgia House seat in April, after first endorsing Trump. But he rescinded his decision days later, claiming he had received “overwhelming support”.

From today’s NYT. Sums it up quite nicely, a full section devoted to why Team Trump Treason Tax Cheat is not fit to be POTUS. So much winning and fruit from the poisonous tree. Tired of winning yet?

But honestly, the best place for him is in prison so far down that you need to pump light into his cell...
