This anodyne BS is how the NYT summarizes the most corrupt presidency in US history.
Trump said he didn't know what Project 2025 was; he lied.
He said he would get prices down; he lied.
He said he'd only deport criminals; he lied.
He started wars and attacked his own people.

That’s where the culture wars come in handy. Distract people with fear so that they tolerate the money grab from tax policies that favor the wealthy and deregulation of consumer protections.
America has 925 billionaires as of this year. Collectively they have a record $6.9 trillion in wealth.
The bottom 50% of Americans control $4.2 trillion in wealth.
When 925 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

Remember when Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump’s lawyer, Alan Dershowitz, wrote an op-ed trying to justify having sex with kids?
Seems relevant now.

Maybe, just maybe, some Republican elected officials around the country are getting tired of being threatened by a nearly 80 year old corrupt mob boss with a 36% approval rating who is increasingly unhinged and might actually start to grow spines. One can always hope.

when you see Trump on camera angrily attacking female reporters for asking straightforward questions, it doesn’t take much to imagine what he does behind closed doors when a woman says ‘No’

Reporters need to turn tail and walk out en masse. STOP giving him a platform and microphone!
Trump has become more and more nasty, hateful, and abusive to reporters with each passing day. They are just trying to do their jobs, asking questions Americans deserve to know. If he were an ordinary person, we could blame it on dementia.

This is an accidentally honest answer. What she's saying in code is:
"The President is a misogynist, petulant bully. You've all seen him be a misogynist, petulant bully. And lots of voters out there are also misogynist or petulant or bullies and that's why they like him."

Q: What did the president mean when he called a reporter "piggy"?
LEAVITT: Look, the president is very frank & honest with everyone in this room. You'll all seen it yourself. You've all experienced it yourselves. And I think it's one of the many reasons the American people reelected this president
