The trades that donât just need to be good, they need to look good. The big trade needs the big sell to members https://t.co/5FT4JXuaRD

Itâs hard to sell the fans on the idea you have squeezed the best deal possible, and exhausted all options, if youâve knocked over a trade with a week still to go.

He was apparently a former spiritual adviser to Trump. And he got ten years in prison for his child sex crime but will only serve six months. Whereâs the outrage from MAGA? If Dems were ruthless, theyâd be all over this. Imagine what Fox would do if it was Bidenâs adviser?
