For what it’s worth, I think mockery like this is probably as effective a way as any to respond to the bad-faith bullshit from the Trumpist right. I haven’t watched Biden’s entire speech from last night, but I saw a brief clip where he ethered Doocy the Younger, and I approve of that too.
I think those of y’all who believe the Hur report will soon blow over (or would just go away if we refuse to talk about it) are whistling past the graveyard. I hope you’re right! But I don’t think you are.
I’m not an expert on much, but I do understand how long-term messaging campaigns work. Earned media that reinforces a preexisting narrative is worth its weight in gold, and boy did Fed Soc Trump-appointee Hur deliver a fucking motherlode yesterday.
But the good news is that Trump is old too, and he also happens to be a one-man crime spree and crazier than a sprayed roach. In order to not drive myself nuts, I choose to believe that matters and voters will appreciate the difference next November.
