For the record: “As Trump’s job approval rating has improved, so has the image of the Republican Party. Now, 51% of Americans view the Republican Party favorably, up from 43% in September. It is the first time GOP favorability has exceeded 50% since 2005.” —Gallup

Nailed it: “If only [Michael] Bloomberg had hired Russians to buy $100,000 in barely literate Facebook ads, instead of spending $700 MILLION, he’d be president now. That’s what the media have told us for 3+ years.” —The Federalist’s Sean Davis

Belly laugh of the week: “Wow. I’m feeling pretty good… Despite very minimal campaigning on my part, I have managed to win only 12 fewer delegates than Bloomberg.” —The Daily Wire’s Matt Walsh

Observations: “The momentum for Donald Trump might be the most underreported aspect of Super Tuesday.” —The Patriot Post’s Nate Jackson

Probably when hell freezes over: “I really don’t like the dementia jokes about Biden, because it’s sad. But … honestly? This isn’t a joke anymore. When do people in the media start having a serious conversation about Biden’s mental state?” —"Relatable" host Allie Beth Stuckey

Village idiot: “Yes, Mr. Trump, let’s make America great again. But first, get one thing straight: America was great — before you were elected. … He has demolished our standing in the world with his laughable boasts and breathtaking ignorance. He has put the security of this country, and our planet, in a precarious position by abandoning the Paris climate accord and the Iran nuclear deal. He’s a one-man weapon of mass destruction … so reckless that he almost started a war. … Trump can never live up to Obama’s legacy, so he’s trying to erase it. He inherited a growing economy and now claims credit for it, saying it’s the best in history … but that’s another lie.” —actress and singer Barbra Streisand

Braying jackass: “I want to talk to my Republicans. Stay the hell out of our race! Stay the hell out of our race! I get sick and tired of Republicans telling me and my colleagues about our process. … So, [RNC chairwoman] Ronna [McDaniel], go to hell!” —former DNC chairwoman Donna Brazile

Alpha jackass: “Democratic Denver City Councilwoman Candi CdeBaca faced conservative criticism Tuesday after sharing a meme on Twitter suggesting she stands in ‘solidarity’ with the idea of spreading coronavirus at President Trump’s campaign rallies.” —Fox News

And last… “Becoming President just wasn’t in Elizabeth Warren’s DNA.” —"Vs Media Podcast" host Stephen Miller
