He knows, just look at his smug smirk in every press conference.

The hypocrisy is the point. They have become the in-group who the law protects but does not bind, and they are rubbing it in everyone's faces because it's a show of power.

I swear to god the actual "strategy" was

"maybe if we're really nice to the guy that's been a massive selfish piece of shit his entire life and his billionaire friends that published an insane christo-fascist manifesto, they won't do all the horrible shit they promised to do"

Just a big smiling portrait of Clarence Thomas?

All this bridge-building, time for healing bullshit was explicitly a prerogative of the Biden admin. See the appointment of Garland as AG and total unwillingness to protect the country from fascism if it meant actually prosecuting anyone in the GOP.

Does he provide even a shred of evidence for this strategy? Because last I checked the only person that "beat" Trump was Joe Biden, in an election that basically anyone with a pulse could have won after Trump's disaster of a first term.

Oh I cancelled my subscription over your sanewashing of Trump and continued braindead centrist reporting.

Be sure to check your child's halloween candy carefully.

Found an ancient arrowhead in one of my kids Reese cups that could have awakened her latent Stand powers (or killed her).

Why do horror movies feel the need to have the worst goddamn dialogue and story possible just because they have some gore?

Everyone paying even a little attention knew the Republicunts would toss it as soon as it was convenient, despite all their doom and gloom warnings when Dems were in power.

Another case of "regulation through disclosure" being woefully inadequate.

'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' Corporate Crime

"We narrowly avoided a violent coup, time for healing" just speaks to a fundamental misunderstanding of the situation.

This wasn't a boxing match. When one side is doing ALL THE HARM, it's abuse. Simply calling for cooler heads without any real accountability does nothing but embolden the abuser.

The absurdity is funny but also remember the Nazis waged a constant disinformation campaign against Jews to dehumanize them in the public's eye. Seems like this is just a clumsier version of the same thing.

I gotta say, the "Kamala is for they/them" ads were incredibly effective, and it felt like Dems did nothing to counter it at all.

Classic Lee Atwater shit, and it's pretty frustrating that Dems seemingly haven't figured out how to counter it after ~40 years.

I thought Spelling Bee was fun but not 'give $5 month to fascist sanewashers' fun.

Gosh, maybe NYT shouldn't have sanewashed him for the last 4 years since he was pretty open about not giving a shit about the law and all the fascist bullshit he had planned.

Also hate the tiny trailer for the trailer followed by "Trailer begins now!"

Stop worshiping at the altar of the almighty algorithm and just make things people are passionate about.
