>> "Oh, he didn't really mean it like that."

He meant it like he said it: As an obvious, impossible-to-miss sarcastic, joking response to the question of whether he would be a dictator on day one.

You far more impressionable when it comes to Trump as you have been historically.

You and I have agreed about many things over the years, but I have tired of business as usual from the Right. I watched as Trump handled item after item -- from Little Kim to Putin to NATO -- with extreme deft and competence -- avoiding ALL war (only to have Biden and traditional Republicans get us neck deep into a war with Russia and keep us there).

I don't want that anymore. I supported Iraq because I believed it was necessary. Today, when I look at the outcome I am not comfortable with what happened there. I believe Trump's strategy of giving Putin breathing room with an understanding of what he could not do was better than the strategy of giving him tacit approval to take over Ukraine, which Biden did. And I'm not sure the McConnells of the world wouldn't have done the same.

The United States is fighting for its near-term future. We cannot have Biden reading quadruple spaced answers to selected reporters questions every time he speaks. It convenys weakness and incompetence, and unfortunately, that is what it amounts to.
