For those unaware of the term “alternative facts” here is a heads up:

“Alternative facts” was a phrase used by U.S. Counselor to the President Kellyanne Conway during a Meet the Press interview on January 22, 2017, in which she defended White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer’s false statement about the attendance numbers at Donald Trump’s first inauguration as President of the United States. When pressed during the interview with Chuck Todd to explain why Spicer would “utter a provable falsehood”, Conway stated that Spicer was giving “alternative facts”. Todd responded, “Look, alternative facts are not facts. They’re falsehoods.”

Sometimes I worry about that strategy. He spouts so many lies it’s hard to wade through the bullshit and see what he actually plans to do.

It normalizes his rhetoric in a way that makes people say, “That’s just Trump talking shit.” When we don’t take him seriously we put ourselves at a disadvantage.

Also, look at his accusations about almost anything. Such projection. It seems like every time he chastises someone it’s for something he regularly does (or will do soon).

Greed and corruption. That’s usually the answer to those types of questions.

Perhaps in a more rational timeline. We’re fucked.

I hate to be so pessimistic but I’m feeling overwhelmed lately.

Maybe they’re both being blackmailed, and Joe Biden is the one really pulling the strings, and he’s trying to destroy the country as revenge for Harris?

There are a lot of equally likely possibilities here

LOL!

But then who will I play blackjack with?

Just because she made a mistake in the beginning doesn’t mean that she should start making more mistakes now.
