Driving safely in a city winter is a community activity. One does not simply drive alone in Minneapolis in February. One participates in a delicate interchange with every other soul on or near the roads—which are often completely covered in snow and ice.

No autonomous car will ever stop to help push another vehicle stuck on those snowy ridges that develop at intersections. No autonomous car will help jump a neighbor's dead battery. No autonomous car will stop mid-block to gesture a freezing neighbor onboard, as a bus driver might.

Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

Jamal Khashoggi was a WaPo columnist when he was murdered inside the Saudi consulate in Istanbul at the direction of the Saudi government. The entire world condemned it, except Trump. This wasn’t “things happen.” It was a state-sanctioned assassination for exercising free speech.
