What You May Have Missed

Ron DeSantis has worked hard to build himself up as the clear Republican alternative to Donald Trump — and he is, for now. But they could be too similar, or just exhaust voters who will look to someone else.

Trump could be indicted in the Stormy Daniels case any day now, and if he is, he plans to go on the attack against the Manhattan district attorney. And with the lifting of his YouTube ban, he’ll have another place to do it.

The President is Biden his time when it comes to a reelection announcement.

Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, now an independent, is not even breaking 20% in early polls. But she might still be able to win — if she can come up with the money.

DeSantis has a broad definition of “finger food”.

“Trump Force One” is a presidential aircraft role playing game.

Hunter Biden has a one-star Yelp review for his laptop repair shop.

It’s pretty simple. The party of Eisenhower, Reagan and Bush is now the party of weakness, isolationism and timidity on defense/national security issues. https://t.co/Pnw00JWvKQ

Trump says Russia is not a threat, our greatest threat is our American representatives, we need to reevaluate the purpose of NATO, and most of the people in the State Dept, DOD and Intel Services need to be fired so he can put the right people in. https://t.co/T6FCjIqMtr https://t.co/9PC6PrONM9
