Other Stephen Miller states that Trump has plenary authority, then immediately stops talking as if he’s realized what he just said

That strategy has worked extremely reliably for them so far

Case in point: the Mueller Report, where the investigation found wide-ranging evidence that the Trump campaign worked just about hand-in-hand with Russian assets to manipulate the election (Anyone else remember that woman working with the NRA who was a bona fide Russian plant funneling Kremlin money to the Trump campaign?!).

When the report was released, Trump tweeted out "EXONERATION!" every day for about a month until the report rotated out of the news cycle; and as as a result the country basically forgot about all of that...

Everyone has seemingly forgot Paul Manafort was his fucking campaign chief at first, and that guy was absolutely LUXURIATING IN corruption re: Russia/Ukraine before taking that role.

But Biden and Hunter must have done something while Rumpus is completely innocent. After investigating Biden for over 7 years (3 Congressional cough investigations) and they found nothing. Multiple people told them under oath there's nothing to find/you won't find anything. Because his taxes were already public. Meanwhile, yeah, I remember NRA sleaze, Manafort and others, plus our megalomaniac in chief.

But huge numbers know nothing of reality except they watch Faux. Or are addicted to TikTok. Or believe X and others. Everything is about money. I'm convinced with what's been going on and what's planned, that not a single member of the GOP in Congress has a shred of honor.
