It’s just noise. Manufactured chaos, really, designed to raise anxiety. The large amount of wind coming of late from the presumptive Republican presidential nominee turns out to be nothing more than a distraction, or distractions. If it truly mattered, we’d tell you about it.
Oh my goodness, I am really surprised by Dan! I entirely disagree.
*I repost this from last night with this addendum. That is an odd column. Published yesterday, it doesn’t mention the Biden kidnapping video specifically but certainly seems to refer to it as just part of the Trump “noise”. That video was MORE than that and Rather has been vigilant about Trump violence. Threats against a president do not get dismissed by law enforcement as mere “noise.” This is the United States of Assassination. Law enforcement ignores our history and this man’s history at their extreme peril. The column is also oddly hubristic: “If it truly mattered, we’d tell you about it.” In a democracy, the people decide what matters. We don’t need others to tell us.
