Ringing The Bell
Yet another attempt on President Donald Trump’s life nearly came to be over the weekend at the same White House Correspondents’ Dinner he’d previously avoided in his first term and first year of his second.
Predictably (yeah it happens often enough now that we can use the word “predictably”) conservative pundits, politicians and the White House mouthpieces want to focus on the “rhetoric” from the left without an ounce of self-awareness on their part. Nor is there any introspection from the man seemingly so hated by people driven to throw their lives away to try and end his as to why he’s so hated.
None of that; just tone-deaf finger-pointing about the era of divisiveness and nary a hint of acceptance of culpability.
Predictably.
A day later, Trump sat down with Norah O’Donnell for the now-infamous ’60 Minutes’ response interview, which brings me to John Fugelsang tweeting “live your life so you never have to insist “I’m not a pedophile” on 60 Minutes.”
Naturally, he snapped into “nastiness” mode, directing his ire at O’Donnell for reading the attempted assassin’s “manifesto.”
Predictably.
