The amazing thing is that even when applying the most convoluted and partisan spin filters money can buy (and I can’t fault any politician for that) – that’s a really thin and unimpressive list. The only legislation he could come up with is the VA Whistleblower Act. I can’t believe he bothers to brag about it. ---

I’m sorry, but a group of people come to march, wearing Hitler tees, chanting “Jew don’t replace us!”, carrying homemade and store bought shields, and both sides are to blame? You know why he can’t admit it? The guys who weren’t wearing Hitler tees were wearing Make America Great Again tees. Any other president would’ve said, “Those of you who are wearing my campaign shirts and threatening equal rights are not part of making America great again.” ---
