Exactly. If he said "In this case, I was the stupid partisan", MAYBE I would have a couple ounces of respect. That'll never happen though. This doesn't mean shit.
"Different", not worse. He can't even admit that it's a bad idea. He says it like he's just not figured out Trumps amazing 4d chess move. He's waiting for the moment he can reply to this tweet with "Aha! It was all according to plan. Checkmate, stupid leftists".
I’m conflicted on people using the term Trump 2.0. Yes, he is certainly even worse this time around, but he was already so blatantly vile that describing him as “very different” now just seems like a cop out to not admit they supported (and are still mostly supporting) a fascist
Except all the people on the left that repeatedly warned exactly this would happen. We knew Trump 2.0 was different: the difference is all the yes men he's surrounded with and we've been sounding the alarm this whole time

"I was wrong on the tariffs..." but not about calling all of you "...(fairly stupid) partisans..."
