If the roles were reversed and Biden did this, it would be a major scandal. Trump does it and we just shrug our shoulders and move along. Biden is told he must denounce violence but there's no expectation of Trump to do so. https://t.co/LzpCVf2i1N— Drew Savicki (@SenhorRaposa) August 30, 2020
"No expectation of Trump to do so"? Yeah, there is, actually:
DHS chief refuses to condemn violent Trump supporters under grilling by CBS host: ‘So you endorse this?’https://t.co/qHbPZyR1Tx— Raw Story (@RawStory) August 30, 2020
Mark Meadows says Trump doesn’t own street violence: ‘Donald Trump’s America is peaceful’https://t.co/CqjwaaFAUI— Raw Story (@RawStory) August 30, 2020
But the more interesting question is: why does Trump retweet these people? 8-dimensional chess? A wink and a nod to Q-Anon? Or is it all about "me"?
After delivering a line his aides have repeatedly tried to get him to say - that he is criticized because he fights for "you" - the president ad-libbed, "and remember this they spied on my campaign and they got caught," before issuing a warning, "let's see now what happens."— Maggie Haberman (@maggieNYT) August 28, 2020
The goal is often described as being part of 8D strategy when it’s often just inflicting damage commensurate to what Trump thinks he personally suffered. https://t.co/UJ2J1jADX9— Maggie Haberman (@maggieNYT) August 30, 2020
And while we're here, the latest iteration of "Pay no attention to what he says, pay attention to what WE say!"
Lara Trump tells Chris Wallace the campaign is doing everything they can to remind women voters "don't think about what this president has said, or the way he delivers the message specifically. Look at what he's actually done."— Kaitlan Collins (@kaitlancollins) August 30, 2020
So that trip to the Scout Jamboree where he talked about orgies on yachts....?
