In Which We Discuss [w/ special guest Grant Sloss]:
1. White House host nation’s first VIP-only, black-tie superspreader event.
2. Trump now attempting to die of COVID in a last-ditch attempt to get out of a massive IRS bill and crushing debt.
3. The first presidential debate (and likely the last) was, in the words of Jake Tapper, “a hot mess inside a dumpster fire, inside a train wreck.”
4. Cal Cunningham is part of the exact kind of lame sexting scandal you’d expect from a DNC-backed moderate. But don’t worry, Thom Tillis has COVID.
5. Another year, another set of Prop 13 battles hit the California ballot.
