Happy Holidays!
As things wind down on an exceptionally tiring year, I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who’s subscribed to this newsletter.
As you can see, we crossed the 10k mark for overall subscriptions and, as promised, Henry Kissinger died not long thereafter. (That’s a clear case of causation, don’t argue.)
And we’re creeping up to 500 paid subscribers, too, which is awfully nice. I especially appreciate those of you who started as free subscribers and decided it was worth paying a little and upgraded. Much appreciated. (And thanks for the notes some of you have sent in with the paid subscription. Hilarious.)
Campaign Trails is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.
It’s my sad duty to remind you that we’re entering an election year, which means a place called CAMPAIGN TRAILS is going to get a lot busier. As always, I’ll be trying to place our political moment in historical context and, given Trump’s past record of making insane claims about the past, I’m sure I’ll be doing a good bit of fact-checking as well. Stay tuned.
In the meantime, it’s the holiday season and worth taking a moment to unclench our collective fists, if only to grab another sugar cookie. Go ahead, you’ve earned it.
Might as well turn this into another Ask Me Anything, so have at it in the comments.
