“Let’s compare the Republican leadership dysfunction to the Democratic leadership of Joe Biden in the White House, Chuck Schumer in the Senate and Hakeem Jeffries in the House. Say what you will about them, and there is plenty to criticize, but at least their status as leaders is stable. Meanwhile, the GOP has likely presidential candidate Donald Trump, whose top four suggested Uber destinations are courthouses, the Senate minority leader, Mitch McConnell, who can often be found buffering, and no speaker of the House. I would call House Republicans a clusterfuck, but a cluster implies some sense of unity. They’re more like a scatter-fuck. I’ve seen more organized groups of seagulls fighting over a potato chip.” —Seth Meyers
“In other Trump news, a federal judge issued a partial gag order in the case related to January 6, which prevents him from publicly targeting prosecutors, judge’s staff or possible witnesses. Aren’t we all possible witnesses? I don’t know about you, but I saw the whole thing happen. The gag order has not stopped Trump from blustering along the campaign trail. At a speech in Iowa, he claimed: ‘What they don’t understand is that I am willing to go to jail, if that’s what it takes for our country to win and become a democracy again.’ Oh yeah, we understand that. That actually is the plan: you go to jail, and the country becomes a democracy again.” —Jimmy Kimmel
