Greg Sargent 🧵 1/…

Media coverage of Republicans stampeding to NYC to attack Trump's trial as illegit is marred by euphemism. This isn't just "currying favor" w Trump or "expressing loyalty" or auditioning to be his VP. It's placing Trump over rule of law

Rs are attacking judge, witnesses, prosecutors & trial as illegitimate. This isn't just helping Trump evade the gag order. The point is also to display in spectacle form that their fealty is to him over the rules that make the system function

@Danetteb@mstdn.social avatar

@GottaLaff the NYT had an article on how Israel had lost or had their democratic system broken (I read the synopsis on insta) and I commented “when is the NYT going to take the threat to democracy here seriously?” I’m so sick and tired of how they frame the Rs actions and the threat they pose.

Danetteb ,
@Danetteb@mstdn.social avatar

@GottaLaff oh yeah, not to attack any single journalist at all!! The institution makes different decisions- and they’ve decided not to take the threat to democracy seriously with the editorial decisions they make.

I wish there weren’t going to be debates.

B:2nd term pres are notoriously bad in their 1st debate for reelection. They’re not used to being…questioned. Challenged. Having somebody in their face like that.

Obama got touched up by Romney in their 1st one. HW Bush got destroyed by Bill Clinton. Clinton in turn had trouble w wooden Bob Dole 1st time out

Today is that day. We finished spackling/painting all the spots where artwork was hanging, we've dusted, vacuumed, and prepped the house. Our painters were unavailable, so it was us.
