So “Trump” just made a “deal” with “Britain.” Trying to emulate his style, with random quotation marks. I GUESS I SHOULD ALSO INCLUDE A SENTENCE IN BLOCK CAPS. Anyway, the deal was almost substance-free. The goal of policy seems to be to goose the market for a few days, with no long-term plan.

Florence is Wisconsin's most Republican county, and the state's second smallest. Trump won there by 75-25. Just 783 D votes. But every vote matters. In 2019, GOP won a state Supreme Court race by 5,960 votes. Only 288 D votes in Florence County. That D turnout shift: 10% of the statewide margin.

Any news outlet reporting Mexico conceded anything to Trump to get him to delay tariffs has not done its homework. Trump boasts he got Mexico to commit to stationing 10K troops at our border. Apparently he didn't realize Mexico already has 15K troops deployed there prami.ibero.mx/informes-y-i...
