And lying. Never forget the confirmable lies.
Just straight up unfiltered racism and xenophobia.
Leavitt: "The Trump admin is now actively reexamining all of the Afghans imported into the country by Biden. Any individual who threatens our national security or citizenry will be subject to removal. Trump has already permanently paused migration of foreign nationals from 3rd world countries"

Q: What part of your body were they were looking at?
TRUMP: I have no idea. It was just an MRI. It wasn't the brain bc I took a cognitive test & aced it, which you would be incapable of doing

"Trump rarely faces direct consequences for his shameful rhetoric. That’s because in the past Republicans have largely refused to abandon him no matter what he says or does. But there are signs that's now changing."

Fitzgerald's last four seasons at Northwestern, by the way: a 14-31 record with an average SP+ ranking of 75.0.
I seriously have no idea why you’d hire Pat Fitzgerald. He wasn’t a playcaller or strategic mind, his whole schtick was selling Northwestern Culture because he played there, and then it turns out that culture featured a brutal atmosphere of sexual hazing

Reporter: If there were a second strike that killed wounded people, would that be legal?
Trump: I don’t know that happened and Pete said he did not even know what people were talking about. I wouldn’t have wanted a second strike. The first strike was very lethal. It was fine.

This is always such a dumb discussion. No it's not $2 but even at $3 means:
$1 difference/gallon each time means about $300 in total per year. It's less than $1/day.
If you're spending more than that, you're driving too much.

The VERY rule on the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders gives as its paradigmatic example of what is "clearly illegal:
"orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."
