The Trump campaign, like other conservative campaigns before his, has been trying to rally up the masses in the face of a terrible economic outlook and public health crisis. All of these things have been mismanaged by an administration beset with scandal after scandal. So Trump and crew are trying their best to do what they do best: create a circus dog and pony show made out of anger, hate, fear, racism, and xenophobia.

Donald Trump has nothing on his schedule today and is in a bad mood after being humiliated by poor attendance at the Tulsa, Oklahoma COVID-19 ball pit his advisers set up for him to play in. Because he is a malignant narcissist whose mind is rapidly disintegrating from the dissonance of not being worshipped as the god-king he imagines himself to be, he is going to fill this void by inventing insane conspiracy theories about the plots against him and telling us about them on Twitter.

Nearly all of the 1,001 children who arrived to the southern border by themselves last month were quickly deported by the Trump administration under a Stephen Miller-led public health order condemned by a U.N. agency, and implemented in complete defiance of U.S. asylum law. Of those 1,001 children, only 39 were allowed to remain in the U.S. to continue pursuing their asylum claims, according to government data obtained by CBS News. Just 39.

The rise in poverty many economists projected as a result of the coronavirus pandemic has been largely avoided, capped by the relief bills passed in March, two new studies posit. But the one time payment of $1,200 per person was just one time, and the extra assistance in unemployment benefits, as well as their extension to contract and gig workers, ends at the end of July with no apparent intention on the part of Mitch McConnell and the Republican Senate to extend it.

Two weeks after Georgia’s primary election debacle (or voter suppression success, depending how you look at it), Kentucky is up, and there are worrying signs. Interest in voting is clearly sky-high, with more than one in four registered voters in the state having requested absentee ballots and thousands having voted early. Those are good things—but the worry is about Tuesday, and how polling places will handle a possible rush of voters.
