in case it's not clear this is a commentary on the defenses I'm seeing from some surprising quarters of Trump daydreaming about cities in California getting nuked

Remember when Trump said there was "very fine ppl on both sides" of a white supremacist rally, & everybody heard it loud & clear, but then he spent years gaslighting about it bc at another point he said "you had some very bad ppl in that group" as if that excused him praising violent racists? I do!
