He literally appears to have no idea what the journalist is talking about when she mentions January 6—even when she clarifies that she is talking about 2021 and about the rioters at the Capitol that day.
He looks at her blankly. Scary.

Isn’t it interesting though that Mike Johnson shrugs all this off as just provocative things said just to create a “persona online” from one of his ACTUAL NOMINEES FOR CONGRESS, but Hasan Piker, who isn’t running for anything, supposedly represents the entire Democratic Party.

Trump has not once called on Putin to stop bombing civilian population centers, which he targets daily. Witkoff & Kushner never said that to Putin. We cut off Patriots to Ukraine for air defense. But now he demands Ukraine stop bombing refineries while Russia murders civilians.

underrated part of El-Sayed’s messaging strategy seems to be shaming journalists who ask dumb questions that play into right-wing frames. you can’t answer these in a way that satisfies them, but you can make it embarrassing enough that you impose a toll on asking.
