Welcome to another edition of the Schmidt Storm. You've got questions and I'll do my best to give you some answers.

And the first question is that whatever it is that passes, the big beautiful bill, as Trump calls it, will pass in some form.

After it does, how should Democrats campaign against it? This is a great question, and unfortunately,

the big beautiful bill and obscenity without precedent, and I say this with no hyperbole and no

exaggeration, can back this up, is the singularly most corrupt piece of legislation in American history, and it will pass.

Now, the fact that the odious Mike Lee had a backup and backtrack and retreat on his plan

to sell off 132 million acres of public land, just because a good thing happened, because a bad thing was

stopped, does not reduce in total the evil of this bill, which betrays no group of

Americans more broadly as a political constituency than the Trump voter, who will pay a

heavy, heavy, heavy price if you live in a rural area for trusting and entering into a business

deal of sorts with Donald Trump. He said, vote for me, I'll make America great again.

And the reality is, is he took your Medicaid away, he took your access to a doctor away,

and he closed down your rural hospital, and he slashed your VA benefits, and he cut off the parks,

and he shut down the national parks parks and he fired the park rangers

and he abused the land that's what he did and so democrats will just have to communicate clearly

because the things that will happen the checks that won won't come, for example, the Social Security

administration because of Musk's vandalism is in a stage of near collapse. As all of these things

accumulate, as people feel it, the anchors on Fox News who are making $50 60 million dollars a year, well, all of the

bullshit will start to stink a little bit more, a little bit more, a little bit more.

And the reality is the images of the Bezos wedding. That is the image of Maga. That's what this all is.

And Democrats simply need to put a question on the table, on their journey to redemption,

which is, shouldn't there be a check on Donald Trump?
