Dear Democrats, It Really Is Going to Be Okay
Dear Democrats, It is going to be OK. It really will. You’ll have the midterms in two years. There’ll be another presidential election in four years.

Morning Joe 'Surprised' McMaster's Trump Book Isn't All Negative
Retired Gen. H.R. McMaster is out with a new book detailing his time as former President Donald Trump’s national security advisor, and while the book is not by any means an ode to Trump, it is also not the typical anti-Trump book that MSNBC’s Morning Joe has become accustomed to.

Trump’s Map to the White House
In 2020, Joe Biden won three states by less than 1 point: Georgia, Arizona and Wisconsin. If Donald Trump can flip these three in November — he took them all in 2016 — he’ll be back in the White House this time next year. Can he do it? First he has to hold every state he won last time.
