Unless they had been in a coma for several years and only woke up in time to cast their vote, there is no way Nevadans who helped elect Donald Trump president in 2024 didn't know he was, as one-time Republican presidential caucus winner Mitt Romney once explained, "a phony, a fraud ... a con artist."

And given the aforementioned deterioration of standards, talking about this instead of the economy might just work. Wouldn't that be something?

A gaggle of governors. Taking a break from his busy schedule of saying "girls' sports" a lot, Lombardo confabbed with a bunch of other governors in the northern Utah resort splendor of the Wasatch range's eastern front, and one of the things they were gabbing about is how they can help your Western U.S.A. procure electrons and hasten their flow to and fro.
