Monday Open Thread

1. Any word from the folks over at No Labels regarding the prospect of a Trump/Biden rematch?

   I'm guessing Chris Christie declined to endorse Nikki Haley because he's hoping to get a phone call from Joe Lieberman and Andrew Yang asking him to run.

   1. Progress so far — No Labels has ballot access in elections in 14 states. And they think they are speaking for those responding to polls saying they don't want a Biden-Trump rematch.

      I went to look and found the most recent releases (January 18) from No Labels centered on a sternly written letter.

      Dan Webb is a No Labels leader who has served as the U.S. Attorney in Chicago, leading major criminal investigations, and as a special prosecutor in six different state and federal investigations. He is the current co-executive chairman of the international law firm of Winston & Strawn and said:

      “Based on the evidence No Labels has presented to the Department of Justice, No Labels is alleging these groups are participating in a racketeering conspiracy to use fear and threats of force to intimidate and harass representatives of No Labels, potential No Labels political candidates and No Labels supporters nationwide. Unfortunately, based on this evidence, the people behind this conspiracy seem to have convinced themselves they need to undermine our democracy to save it. Based on this evidence, it is shameful that this alleged conspiracy against No Labels and the millions of voters we represent has gone on this long. No Labels is asking the Department of Justice to do a thorough investigation, and based on the evidence presented to the DOJ, determine if any criminal violations have occurred.”

      No Labels' letter to Department of Justice can be read in full here.

      Coincidentally, ALL of the statements objected to are by Democrats and Never-Trump Republicans.

      Best be cautious … saying that No Labels is a stupid idea, those pushing it are helping Trump, and those who participate in No Labels ought not have a future in American politics might make one part of the vast conspiracy against the No Labels political movement.

2. Trump knows he's toast. The scatterbrained responses and confusion publicly are the beginning of his insanity defense.
