National Children’s Chorus

Voters across the country know the country is headed in the wrong direction and affordability is a huge issue. That doesn’t stop Donald Trump from going on TV last night to say things are getting better and he is cleaning up the Joe Biden mess. There are MAGA folks out there who are going to believe him despite what their bank balance says.

Then this tweet came out this morning:

Brutal numbers for food in the latest inflation report:

– bananas rose 6.7 percent in the past year

-beef and veal rose by 15.8 percent

-coffee, which rose 18.8 percent in the last year.

Got it.

This really is not a surprise to me. See this from the Chron:

State Rep. Gina Hinojosa has a commanding lead in the race to challenge Gov. Greg Abbott, according to the most recent polling of the crowded Democratic primary contest. 

The Austin Democrat, who has served in the state House since 2017, drew 41% of the likely Democratic voters surveyed by the Barbara Jordan Public Policy Research and Survey Center at Texas Southern University.

The next closest candidate in the poll was Andrew White, the son of former Gov. Mark White, who drew just 6%. Former congressman Chris Bell drew 5%, while 6% threw support behind one of the seven other candidates in the race. Most voters, 42%, remained undecided.

Here is the entire read: Poll: Gina Hinojosa is Democratic front-runner to face Greg Abbott.

I think the numbers will hold up.
