Cillizza finally found his resting place wih like minded rabid retromingent leftists who lie with a straight face and expect useful idiots adopt it as gospel. What a bastard.
This idiot.
I read through his responses, and most of them are snarky responses or willfully ignorant about what Trump said.
Such as, his snarky comment about, gee, is there a campaign to tear down Mt. Rushmore that we aren’t aware of??? Give me a break. With all the recent activity of tearing down statues and defacing monuments, he knows damn well what Trump is talking about. And with the recent activity, all of us would not be surprised if the anarchists would target Mt. Rushmore for destruction.
Or this response :
6. “Many of these people have no idea why they are doing this, but some know exactly what they are doing.”
In Trump’s mind, there are only two kinds of protesters: dupes who have no idea what they are even protesting and professional rabble-rousers like Antifa. That, of course, totally dismisses the idea that the protesters — or some large chunk of them — are committed believers that the police need to be reformed and that racial inequity remains a real and pressing problem in America.
Give me another break. This dude knows damn well that Trump is talking about VIOLENT so called “PROTESTERS”, who are tearing down statues of Lincoln and Grant, who were on the “right side of history” in the Civil War. Which suggests that these mob members don’t know what the hell they are doing and who the people being honored really are. Also, what does rioting and mayhem have to do with some committment to police reform?
So does this prick endorse violence and toppling monuments, as long as the rabble rousers can espouse a politically correct justification?
