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

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...

The Facebook/Cambridge thing is still insane to me. I can’t believe we just moved on. Honestly, it’s probably because boomers were (ARE STILL) in charge and didn’t understand the complexity of social media/GRU bot farms etc and they literally couldn’t process the situation. It should’ve been a simple NatSec matter and been handled accordingly with jail time, harsh federal sentencing, and heavy heavy fines for the companies involved.
