re: #100 Wendell Zurkowitz ((slave to the waffle light))

Devil’s advocacy here:

The GOP will counter with “Crooked Hillary” and point out that Russia is buzzing our reconnaissance flights and threatening to shoot down our jets over Syria, both of which are factually irrelevant but rhetorically effective, and the mass media show no sign of doing their job at all, which means that the GOP will control the narrative.

That’s not a good cover. Russia doing that stuff without consequences while Trump blows kisses at Putin makes Republicans look weak.
