Did they put Barbara and Laura Bush on their cover as many times?
Obviously, no correlation between covers of FOTUS, and deaths of POTUS...
I would postulate that more than one cover of FOTUS Muchelle per term helped hasten the slide more than whatever benefits sycophantian purchases did to forestall it.
Laura was on at least twice. Barbara was on a couple times too. Hillary’s been on, but she’s not really LHJ material.
Being Iowa-based, LHJ isn’t quite the kook-left operation that it would be on the coasts, but it is weird.
