Anybody watching CNN right now? Blitzer is interviewing this tool, Sen. Rich,

who just accused whoever it was in the Trump admin. that went to the WaPo of being a traitor, and adamantly insisted that what Trump did was not only legal but absolutely justified. He's the worst apologist I've heard yet.

Wolf is worthless and a complete waste of my time. If he appeals to anyone it is the terminally stupid.

who was obviously angry at being argued with. I wouldn't say Wolf has grown a spine, but there do seem to be a couple of vertebrae that I hadn't noticed before.

They're ideological hacks kissing the GOP Papal ring. Don't expect any reason to their points.

despite what's on the tapes. Some of them can never be persuaded.

The interview was hilarious and sad at the same time. I don't think he's deluded - he's a hack who is trying to purposely spread disinformation.

after the commercial. Risch is a liar, traitor and a Trump-tool.(He is also one of the richest members of the Senate.) What a piece of crap he is.
