What Are These People Thinking, Eating Pudding With Team Trump?
There is no possible excuse for this.

Charles P. Pierce PUBLISHED: AUG 23, 2023

Team Trump wining and dining with a number of top reporters at a steakhouse called “Rare” — and passing out pudding snack packs (a swipe at RON DeSANTIS’ “pudding fingers” story) as well as debate bingo cards to troll the Florida governor. Squares included: “dismisses polls,” “wipes snot,” “red ears,” “Dee-Santis,” “Duh-Santis,” “flip flops on Social Security… again,” “woke” and “pudding mention.”
Who was there: Reporters Dana Bash, Shane Goldmacher, Kristen Welker, Bob Costa, Fin Gomez, Dasha Burns, Rachel Scott, Rick Klein, Josh Dawsey, Rob Crilly, Mario Parker and David Chalian along with Chris LaCivita, Jason Miller and Steven Cheung. And across the restaurant, feet away: members of Team DeSantis.
I could care less about the wounded fee-fees of Team DeSantis. He deserves every ounce of the ridicule that is being heaped upon him. But what are the people in my business doing sharing ha-ha's with the scurvy bastards in the employ of a treasonous indicted felon, and that's not even to mention Jason Miller, who is beyond even my gifts for invective.
