Then there’s Julia Ioffe’s Donald/Ivanka incest tweet, which reportedly has the Trump folks freezing out her new employer, The Atlantic.

By the way, I had Tucker Carlson on DVR last night but I fast-forwarded through most of the Eichenwald bit, because I knew it was going to be bloody. But then they joined Trump’s Pennsylvania rally in progress, and I watched the speech. He’s still hammering the press for dishonesty, and who can blame him, really, after stuff like this? I also noticed a pretty diverse crowd, and even a lot of “Women For Trump” signs and even one “LGBT Hispanic For Trump.”
