"Y'all, what's the big deal about a president honestly and candidly saying he wants to violate the Constitution? You need to chill. Authoritarianism is no biggie when it's done candidly with a smile!"
Leavitt: "Look, you guys continue to ask the president about a third term, and then he answers honestly and candidly with a smile, and then everybody here melts down about his answer."

Not incompetence, not naivete, not negligence, not mispeaking, not mixups, not miscommunications: straight-up evil people doing evil sh*t
