Hello and welcome back to my private email on all things nationalist-populist, aka the flip side of Julia Ioffe’s Tomorrow Will Be Worse. (I’ve lobbied for 2Morrow Will Be Worse, or Tomorrow Will Be Worse: Florida Drift, but alas.) This week’s email is a bit of a grab bag, including notes on something I’ve long anticipated since Trump left office: the secret underworld of QAnon being incorporated into a bona fide Trump rally. Things have certainly changed behind the scenes in the nascent Trump campaign, and it comes at a time when a certain Florida governor is redefining what it means to be a MAGA leader (and what “trolling the libs” looks like in a post-Trump world).
Before that, however: We at Puck are so excited about our first anniversary that we’re still continuing to celebrate it, all the way through next week. To commemorate the moment, new readers can sign up here for 21 percent off an annual subscription. Register now and you’ll receive a special invitation to an Inner Circle call tomorrow at 4 pm ET, typically reserved for our highest tier of membership, during which I’ll break down our first year of Puckdom along with a handful of our journalists. Even without the value add of Tara Palmeri, Dylan Byers, Teddy Schleifer, and the rest of my colleagues, that is a great deal for a news subscription—some much-needed price deflation in Biden’s America.
