Will be interesting to find out what that MRI was for someday.
Who knows, we may have "This is a scandal" coverage instead of the current "The White House reports everything is fine".

It's true, but complaining about medal display while accusing someone of sedition really shows how much they care about the sedition charge.

Would have been a very different press event today if Trump had announced any policies or had agreed to any of Mamdani's policy proposals.

Another big part is that Mamdani is not in office yet and wasn't asking for specific policies to happen. Trump doesn't like being told he has to do something, even if charmed.

It's also very weird since Nancy Pelosi doesn't own stock and the entire meme is based around public disclosure of her husband's transactions as an active investor.

The real fun is when they start explaining that you completely misread their original statement and obviously everyone is just being too mean to them.

We just had an election where Trump's threats to starve Americans resulted in dire electoral consequences for Republicans.

Luckily the media coverage of his trials reflected the obvious guilt of Trump, plus questioned his competence due to repeatedly falling asleep at one of the trials.
