“Recent episode with Wolf and Kagan, where we heard a consensus that Trump was a threat to Democracy, was mendacious hyperbole.
Yes. Trump is inarticulate and lacks gravitas.
But, it is mendacious hyperbole to claim Trump is a threat to Democracy.
They claimed he colluded with Russia. Despite the best efforts of hyper-partisan Democrat Weissmann, there was no evidence found. But Clinton did pay for and use Russian disinformation with the Steele Dossier.
They claimed he would lock up his political opponents. He didn’t. Joe Biden is trying to.
They claimed he would start WW3. He didn’t. Two major geopolitically threatening wars have started under Biden’s watch.
They claimed he would ignore the Constitution. He didn’t. He complained and used fringe legal theories to challenge election results but he didn’t stay 1 second more than the Constitution specified. Biden brags about using extra-Constitutional executive orders to flout SCOTUS rulings.
So sad that we can hear intellectually honest analysis”
