I am still a little spun that my intelligent mother chooses to watch FoxNews and chooses to believe Trump and his press secretary and all the FoxNews spin. And chooses to not believe me.
After a decade of this, I know it. But somehow it still stuns me each time I run smack into it.

It’s nice how they’ve replicated the middle school dynamic of the insecure bully and his sniveling sidekick picking on someone surrounded by a circle of scared little boys who also try to talk shit so the bully doesn’t come after them.
