8/14/23 - Sizzling Pork Chops and Eminem Lyrics

In Which We Discuss:

1. The Ohio GOP taught us a lesson on how to drive turnout in an August election.

2. Sounds of sizzling pork chops and Eminem lyrics fill the Iowa state fair as GOP candidates descended for their food photo ops.

3. Desantis continues to believe that his campaign’s problem is his staff, not his personality.

4. The Arizona senate race is going to be a fashion catastrophe.

5. Does it seem like every new piece of evidence in the Trump indictment is a different person directly admitting to a crime?

6. Biden hasn’t officially declared a climate emergency, but he has in his heart.
