Obscene megalomania is not yet fully rooted as Republican choice, 2024. At least not in Minnesota, where a "barometer" blogger, Gary Gross in St Cloud, keeps loyally supporting Ron DeSantis' candidacy.

 

MAGAlomania so deep you need hip waders. From a hate filled man. More on this screen capture below.

 Not being close to Republicans in-state or nationwide, I rely on the web.

In particular, one blogger whose outlook to me defines better GOP sentiment in Minnesota.

More or less. It is as best as I can see and believe to be representative. 

Gary, today posts an item Strib publishes about too, but it seems better to look at Gary's item for a pro-DeSantis perspective, rather than Strib's paywalled thing.

First, here, Crabgrass was willing to obit Ron, which may have been premature.

Gary posts a video showing Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds is on the verge of endorsing DeSantis; and Trump's reaction, as Gary reports, is super-petty pure meanness. It is a small minded post from a clearly small, (but grandiose in self image), small mind. 

How dare the man co-opt a nation's flag, as if his alone. It galls us by its hubris.

Or it should! MAGA is nothing but the unbridled totalitarian ego trip of a lifelong grifter who's Pied Pipered some susceptible minds which were already predisposed.

The opening image is from the same video Gary links to, with him posting a different screen view.

Go to Gary's post, read it. Gary has no paywall nor obtrusive solicitation for cash contributions. Just his posting his thoughts as he chooses. 

Then, let us consider the slanted Bannon - Mercer family money - Breitbart prejudice in favor of the MAGAlomaniac. This screen capture of today's Breitbart homepage. Gov. Kim not mentioned. A word search "Reynolds" came up empty.


 Enlarge the image and scroll to see stuff. But no report of Reynolds on the verge of a DeSantis endorsement in Iowa, where Reynolds is Governor, and where the opening screen capture shows Trump grotesquely threatening her career because she's not kissing his Royal MAGA ass. The man is sick.

"News" as Breitbart would propagandize editorializes "loudly" by wholly ignoring a development Strib noted about border state news, in using a nationwide AP item for its coverage. AP knows news. Brietbart winnows only its biases as "news."

To be fully honest, I care more to see what Gary thinks than what Bannon and the Mercer billionaires think; even where I quite frequently see things differently than Gary sees them. Breitbart has its place, but don't drink their Koolaid, is all.

As a slogan: "AP sees its news, Breitbart excludes its.

As in, compare and contrast the words objective and subjective.

Like it or love it. It is how some things work.
