After All, It's Not Like Other Nations Have Any Real Independence!

 It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Family Plot.

Even when Muir takes a stance that isn't out and out morally bankrupt, he does it in a way that is ignorant, arrogant, and ultimately repugnant.

    I'm again reminded of how much I simply do not understand where these guys are coming from. I'm already confused enough by their hatred of Mitch McConnell, who guaranteed a right-wing Supreme Court and without whom right-wing dominance of Washington would not have come about nearly as smoothly as it did. But Graham? One of Trump's most unfailingly obsequious simps?

    I don't get it. Is it because these guys are all solid paleocons who despise any politician who gets us into wars?

    Because even that wouldn't make sense if they're still standing behind Trump, who seems one hundred percent determined to go to war with Iran and spark a catastrophe beyond catastrophes.

    It's been fascinating over the past few days to watch how these developments have caused something of a civil war on the right.

      This one at least makes SOME sense--Graham is an unabashed warhawk, and even his serving as Trump's lickspittle hasn't changed this. Indeed, as the MAGA crowd shifts to straight up isolationism, it's easy to cast him as a malignant influence who is only pretending to be an ally so he can help his evil program to make us care about foreigners.

      Of course, Trump is keen on the idea of bombing when he's certain he can't be bombed back, but aside from it being tough to keep him certain of that, it's easy for these people to declare that the tsar of course is good and agrees with them. It's just the boyars who mislead him.
