No president in our history has done worse.

What a statement. Forget the Native American genocide, the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, dozens of wars of aggression the world over, or, on an individual level, raping women and owning slaves (sometimes both at once): that’s nothing compared to riling up followers on social media.

Besides, these platitudes about how important stating the obvious truth is are the kind of propaganda any side can claim for themselves. Real lack of media analysis on display here.

By the way, Politico was bought by the German publisher Axel Springer two years ago. They’re notorious for their right-wing tabloids and two of their core values are supporting Israel and supporting capitalism, so it’s no surprise, if unfortunate, that they’re also forcing Politico to take reactionary positions.
