Reminder, since no one know what events and crises will happen in the future, a necessary quality for any Governor is the ability to think and react in real time. And Amy Klobuchar just proved, to Eric Schmitt along with everyone watching, that she has that ability.

Brook Rollins, Trump’s Sec. of Agriculture: "If beef is too expensive, choose a cheaper protein." And to double down on her Marie Antoinette moment, she didn't even say peanut butter or beans; her list of cheaper proteins included...salmon?!! Salmon is cheap compared to what? Crab legs? Caviar?
