re: #298 Targetpractice

If Trump had the common sense God gave the lemming, he’d have waited for this whole memo business to blow over or kept his involvement with it to a “We’ll wait for the investigation to finish.” But he couldn’t help it, his ego wouldn’t allow him to let it go by unaddressed, so now we watch as he’s (again) stuck fighting a rearguard action where every time one of his spokesweasels tries to make it go away, they get caught in another lie.

Since this nonsense seems to be working for Trump so far, I’ll make a special point of resisting the obvious conclusion that this is somehow damaging to Trump and the Republicans. That would be application of rational thinking to US politics, which may have become a category error by now.
