To my surprise, even the Dems in the room seemed to swallow this up.
Ok, yeah, maybe.. But the key words are "relevant" and "evidence." What he did was stir the pot for no worthwhile reason whatsoever, and he abused his position to nudge public opinion. He should be fired. Looking at this whole it's stil fresh, it's such a transparently political move that that piece of it hardly warrants discussion. But the damage has been done, and it will be looked at later, if at all, when the entire thing is several months or years removed from wherever we are at the time.
Goddamn infuriating. Trumpland is right.
