    @Bernard posted in the Good News thread about a Dem flipping a (state) seat in a traditionally deep red district in PA. Trump won it by 15.

    Today, this:

    President Donald Trump said Thursday he was pulling the nomination of Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., to be U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, citing concerns about the House's slim margin to enact his legislative agenda.

    Trump said in a post on Truth Social that Stefanik "will stay in Congress," months after he announced his intent to appoint her to the position in his administration.

    "I have asked Elise, as one of my biggest Allies, to remain in Congress to help me deliver Historic Tax Cuts, GREAT Jobs, Record Economic Growth, a Secure Border, Energy Dominance, Peace Through Strength, and much more, so we can MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN," Trump said in a Truth Social post. "With a very tight Majority, I don’t want to take a chance on anyone else running for Elise’s seat. The people love Elise and, with her, we have nothing to worry about come Election Day."

    "There are others that can do a good job at the United Nations," the president continued. "Therefore, Elise will stay in Congress, rejoin the House Leadership Team, and continue to fight for our amazing American People. Speaker Johnson is thrilled!"

    It's unclear what House leadership role she would have. Stefanik previously had served as chair of the House Republican conference, the No. 4 leadership spot, making her the highest-ranking GOP woman on Capitol Hill. But she gave up the post this year after Trump chose her to be U.N. ambassador.

      More worrisome news.

      More Americans say Trump’s second term has been worse than expected, according to a new poll

      The Yahoo News/YouGov survey shows the president’s approval rating has fallen since last November amid perceptions that he isn’t prioritizing America’s most important issues.

        I fail to see how it could be worse than expected, but here we are.

          Just imagine the second term telling the first "hold my beer."
