The American press and public really need to figure out how to simply dismiss Trump's pretextual claims for authoritarian attacks and then resist the attack itself, not debate the claim. We have spent months asking "but is the Ivy League really antisemitic?" and now "but is DC really crime-ridden?"
Yes!! I agree!! Why treat these often ridiculous claims as legit? It’s like debating over whether the tooth fairy is real. Drives me bananas!
The response to the DC issue should have been a brief summary of the facts that crime is trending downward. That’s it. False claim, President Trump.
