When you read his letter, do you feel a stench of antisemitism? Do you "feel like" anything he wrote borders on right wing loonacy!?

Look the guy up. Personally I pay attention to who someone is not a smooth resignation letter.

That’s not to say there’s not some truth in there.

But context is important and the context is the guy isn’t some technocrat speaking truth to power, he’s a far right America First mega MAGA loon. This is about a fight within Trump’s camp of True Believers.

Doesn’t mean what he’s saying doesn’t contain truths, I just don’t think he’s a good faith actor.

Well, the common rule in a war is that an enemy of my enemy is my friend. If the cracks keep showing from within, that bares more weight than a Chuck fucking Schumer telling it.

And ya know, the US of A is now really in a war sorts of, from within.

Bit that's their shit. We need to be better than that. Some fucking nazi states that Israel is in the wrong, I'm not going to high five them. Just imagine one of our inside chats about the problem with liberals, and then some MAGA struts in all "Hell yeah brother, libtards are the worst!". Like, no. Not you, buddy.

Noh Noh, I am not saying that. I am not advocating for him to get a seat at the table, but he gets a slight head nod. That is all. He deserved a head nod.

That's the thing about Trump. He ropes you in with a little bit of truth, and then douses you with lies.

Good riddance Kent. Eat a dick. You won’t be missed.

I find the use of rope and douses in this post deeply disturbing.

I mean, to be terribly pragmatic if the Joe Kent's of this world are going to call the Iran operation what it is (broken clocks.... etc et al) then at least some people are hearing that idea who wouldn't otherwise. I'll give you that.

The one thing I ever liked about Trump is when he called the war in Iraq stupid.

"Should President Trump send U.S. forces to Iran’s Kharg Island, it wouldn’t count as “boots on the ground” in the country, Rep. Pete Sessions (R-Texas) argued Tuesday."

Fuckinghell. Tautologies aren't even true anymore.
