No seriously, fuck this “enemy of my enemy is my friend” shit.

Why would anyone pretend this guy was doing anything other than covering his ass?

What’s patriotic about whinging about how you’re unappreciated because you’re shaving down the rough edges on the child-king’s stupid plans...that coincidentally are just shoddy implementations of existing party policy that is also cruel and ineffective?

The attempt to narrativize this guy as a good’un demonstrates how this IS NOT ABOUT DOING THE RIGHT THING, it’s about creating a plausible deniability gap between Trump and the people who want the same things as Trump but done more artfully.

He’s trying to evoke the image of babies being handed to soldiers as they evacuated from Vietnam. I’m sure it’s sounds plausible to Republicans.
