I’m assuming the majority of the GOP are at this point. And, at least 10 dems.
Never heard of Merkley before but I like how he handled himself here. Cut off the Trump tools when they when they started spouting propaganda to answer his questions about propaganda.
I’m gonna cut you off since you’re veering off topic. I like the cut of his jib. So many times they just let these people spout pure bullshit.
I’m sure that’s an improvement over the previous norm, but I think there’s still a long way to go towards treating these blatant traitorous shills appropriately.
A truly appropriate interaction would’ve gone something like this:
Merkley: “In factual reality, Russia started the war by invading the sovereign territory of Ukraine. Trump told a lie from the oval office, falsely claiming that Ukraine started the war. Which country do you believe started the war, Russia or Ukraine?”
Stooge: “I’m just gonna have to uh politely disagree–”
Merkely: “Nonresponsive; try again. It’s a binary question: Russia or Ukraine. You only get a one-word answer. Any word that comes out of your mouth other than ‘Russia’ will be understood as an admission that you’re a stooge and a traitor. Now what’s your answer?”
