I truly feel sorry for every American smart enough to realize that this makes the United States look like the dumbest nation on the planet.
DOOCY: On Prince Andrew, do you think American associates of Jeffrey Epstein will wind up in handcuffs too?
TRUMP: I'm the expert in a way because I've been totally exonerated. That's very nice. I can actually speak about it very nicely. I think it's a shame. I did nothing.

Look this isn't exactly a mystery here:
1. The NYT hates AOC and does not want her to be president.
2. The easiest and likely most effective attack on AOC will be her youth i.e. lack of experience/knowledge.
3. Ergo, they are setting the style guide now: AOC is dumb.
Gonna be a long three years.
