Another display of just how stupid the American people are
Government does something obviously and blatantly controversial and the American people just take it and the corporate media just sweep it under the rug
This isn’t a problem with the government … it’s a problem with the entire nation
Theres a lot of protests going on. Only the Rubepublicans are still smiling, and not even all of them anymore.
It’s willful ignorance for at least half the electorate. They think they are fooling everyone, but they’re just lying to themselves.
Like everything else they do - incompetently.
Is it ironic this is coming from the NYT?
Some of trumps most important supporters?
To be completely fair, this is hardly anything new or limited to the Trump administration. Our entire society, especially at the political, corporate, and legal levels, is built around using semantics to escape accountability, avoid responsibility, and downplay everything. I guarantee you that any administration caught in this kind of scandal would be hiding behind a team of lawyers using as many semantics as possible to avoid taking responsibility.
This is merely the end result of a society that grossly encourages deflecting responsibility for virtually anything.
Does someone have a link with no pay wall?
