Why do you care about this now as if the sky is falling? Could it be you don’t like the people doing it and you were totally willing to extend all the grace in the world over this sort of thing until about 48 hours ago when this story broke?
I’ve worried about the sky falling under every president I can remember, and I’ve never been one to “extend all the grace” just because it was “my guy.”
I voted for this guy knowing what I was signing up for (or so I thought), and I still believe I’m better off than I would’ve been with the alternative.
Sometimes, the emperor has no clothes—Trump and this administration have been exposed from the start—and I find it baffling that calling that out gets me labeled as disingenuous or hypocritical.
No one here will ever convince me that if Kamala and her team had won and made the same decisions, especially this last debacle by our Secretary of Defense, many of the same people defending Trump now would be losing their minds with outrage and finger-pointing.
It’s still okay to hold our own side accountable. Or are we so insecure that doing so embarrasses us just because it might make the other side feel like they scored a point?
