Trump’s Ear

Some of Trump’s followers apparently see God’s providence in his survival of the assassination attempt. I wonder if maybe God just isn’t a good shot.

Apparently some Republican politicians skipped the Politics 101 class where you learn that politicians criticize each other. And they used to mock self-pitying victimization tropes. So while they go around claiming that Biden has destroyed the country and the Democrats are communists and child-molesters, they get all whiney and teary-eyed when a reporter makes fun of Sarah Huckabee’s worshipful enthusiasm for Trump.

“You can’t believe the media”? I get the feeling that they don’t want you to believe the media because sometimes it reports stuff like the crime rate going down, unemployment at the lowest level in 50 years, sea levels rising, Putin imprisoning journalists, the Taliban winning the war in Afghanistan, Trump having planned to withdraw all U.S. troops the same way Biden did, Hamas didn’t care who was president when it attacked Israel, Brexit was an economic disaster, immigrants are far less likely to commit crimes than native Americans, most fentanyl comes into the U.S. through land border crossings, vaccines work, Biden won the 2020 election fair & square, and 10% tariffs on everything along with a strict immigration ban will drive inflation up.

Haven’t seen anyone comment on the fact that Trump’s agreeing to debate Biden before the convention might, in the end, be the biggest blunder of the election year.
