Here we go again. Another Trump scandal. Media outlets running around with their hair on fire.  Trump groupies playing down events. Democrats trying to appear shocked and outraged. … I happen to think ChatLeak, like so many other Trump controversies, is a pathetic display of gross incompetence. But if I’ve learned anything over these long Trump-dominated years, this is a gotcha moment that will blow over, similar to other seemingly devastating Trump gotcha moments that turned out to go politically nowhere. …  It’s only Wednesday. Another Trump scandal is due later this week. Get some rest till then.

Update – From WSJ editorial: “The leak furor will fade but not JD Vance’s contempt for allies.”

Update II — And from Dan Kennedy: “Why Democrats, lacking power, won’t be able to keep the war-plan texting scandal alive.”

Update III – 3.28.25 — Peggy Noonan at the WSJ doesn’t think ChatLeak will fade away because it reveals too much about the Trump bros.
