First, a follow-up to yesterday's show as both Cobb Democrats won their special elections to serve on that county's commission, putting Democrats (again) in control of that county's governance (despite all the efforts at the state GOP level to undo the will of the majority). Also, after having a grousing parent removed from a school board hearing a little more than a week ago for bending the knee to the Trump administration and eliminating their D.E.I. initiatives, Decatur City Schools undid that, much to the delight of that same parent and many others. That's not a good stretch of headlines for MAGA in Georgia, and neither is this:New Atlanta Journal Constitution/UGA polling shows President Donald Trump is underwater in Georgia on just about every issue with just about every demographic other than "white men" and "diehard Republican," but before Democrats go thinking things are swinging in their direction, those same findings show they're in worse shape.The good news? They're in no position to do anything and there's (unfortunately) still time for that reality to wash over voters who seem to lack that awareness (still). Current Georgia governor Brian Kemp leads Senator Jon Ossoff in a 2026 head-to-head, in that same poll, though around the margin of error, and even that's not the best news for Republicans in a state they've dominated. Why? He's the only potential Republican even appearing to be competitive vs. Ossoff and another 18 months anywhere similar to the last 100 days will wear on the party brand and anyone attached to it.About Democrats' suffering in polling ... AJC op/ed scribe and political reporter Patricia Murphy noted the precarious situation. Again, voters wanting Democrats to "do something!" seem to forget they left Democrats powerless to do much.

What's rich, according to the AJC's Patricia Murphy, is that she's a well-known heckler, herself, but had the audacity to amp up Acworth PD to pounce on anyone even so much us uttering a simple "boo." Credit to the Cobb County Democratic Party folks for organizing he peaceful outdoor protests and to the protestors for essentially taking all the attention from Marjorie's in-person MAGA infomercial. No one's talking about her spin; instead many are talking about the heckler being a hypocrite.------Chaotic town halls, ICE "disappearing" people to a deadly el Salvadoran prison, Donald Trump's beefing with Harvard, and student visas getting revoked for hundreds if not thousands of international students have taken a lot of eyes off the biggest issue dragging the Trump presidency into the red, polling-wise: the economy.Heather Cox Richardson made that point in her daily Facebook post yesterday, noting the Dow had lost about 700 points Wednesday (another 500 today) which explains why Trump and his sycophants are only too eager to stir up anger where their base is more angaged: immigration and social issues. ------Speaking of student visas, a hat tip to opinion writer Jay Bookman with the Georgie Recorder, whose latest is a deep-dive into the many (and there are many) ways scaring off international students will negatively impact the American economy and college and university's bottom lines.
