my little prince obviously wouldn’t because republicans wouldn’t disclaim such associations, and because, republicans have a set of policy positions which are despicable, whereas platner has avowed righteous, anti-imperialist positions; and it is qua these policy positions, not qua his tattoos or his philandering, that he is attacked by the institutionalist media, and it’s against that media that njr runs interference.

if Mainers found someone who wasn’t a shithead, i’m sure njr would prefer it. if you ran in Maine and had the opportunity to be a voice for feeding the homeless in Maine and Gaza, i’m sure njr would prefer you, and would run interference for you as well.
