Donald Trump’s rare accomplishments, even when they do come along—i.e., the Middle East ceasefire that lasted uninterrupted for several days—don’t seem to affect his A.W.I. polling. Last week he won again, with 28.1 percent. Tied for second (19.4 percent) were the de-Duke-ified Prince Andrew and Kristi Noem, who from a rooftop bravely “stared down” a few antifa protesters loitering on a Portland street corner, apparently unaware of her presence. Placing a close fourth (18.6 percent) was J. D. Vance, with his Kids-will-be-(racist-misogynistic-anti-Semitic-hate-filled)-kids take on Young Republican leaders.
A special note: exactly one year ago, in AIR MAIL’s October 26, 2024, issue, we established the Santos Trophy for the Lie of the Week. Donald Trump won the inaugural installment for his observation that January 6, 2021, was a “day of love,” and since then he’s claimed the coveted Santos every single time. Until now.
