#98. After the FBI released photos of documents on his floor, an irate Trump said he declassified them, and was especially upset that it made him look like a “slob.” His mother apparently called him that all the time when he was a kid, so he is sensitive about that.

#76. When his campaign started, Herschel decided to put out a video about Biden’s ‘Build Back Better’ plan. Even after this, the Republican Party chose him as the best person they could nominate for the Senate, and it just kept getting worse.
So when Trump went on a tangent about a bloodbath if he loses he was just talking about his lie that 100% of the US auto industry was going to move to China under Biden? Although his cult followers might not get that addled nuance, we must assume he’s only lying not inciting?
When he said come to DC on J6 and “be there, will be wild!” he was only talking about the speeches. They were going to be wild speeches. And when Mo Brooks said they have to “kick some ass” in a bulletproof vest he was talking about them just peacefully protesting earnestly.
The problem with media today is that they fundamentally don’t understand what is happening. Journalism school, & maybe previous decades in the business, have taught them to give the benefit of the doubt on intent. But these Weimar journalists still don’t get that what they are dealing with is taught in history classes, not journalism school.

‘Border Czar’ who doesn’t want the job and blow it off. They can just say everything is great and Rs are exaggerating. Or, and I know this sounds crazy, articulate a clear policy, the reasons for that policy, and detail how that policy is being enforced. And then message …
Remember when I predicted that the MAGA talking point today was going to be that Biden should’ve went to OH instead of Ukraine? That was before any of these.
