I just had a really good weekend.
It was short, and I knew it wouldn’t last long from the beginning. You helped raise my self-esteem, which is now at the highest point it has been in a long while.

But we did learn something about how the Republican candidates intend to try: by pandering to the most extreme voices in their party.
