The Lincoln Project's Rick Wilson argues that the DOJ’s investigation into Gavin Newsom is selective and politically motivated while ignoring more serious allegations involving Ron and Casey DeSantis, then turns to Trump’s Dallas midterm convention, calling it a train wreck that was all about Trump and failed to land with voters despite the spectacle. He says the event highlighted Trump’s unpopularity, rising diesel and heating oil prices, strain on farmers and ranchers from fuel costs and imported beef, and the ways Republicans are struggling to make their message stick, especially as candidates like Ken Paxton, Mike Rogers, Roger Marshall, and others face growing trouble in red states where economic pain and unpopular tactics are starting to hurt them.
