Are you ready for the media’s favorite bedtime story?
Once upon a time in America, Republicans were right on the verge of saying goodbye to Donald Trump. They were seriously looking for someone who could bring them all of Trump’s policies without Trump’s baggage, and were sorting through a wealth of alternatives. But then the nasty old Justice Department and mean special counsel Jack Smith decided to indict Trump. Because of that indictment, Republicans ran back to Trump, making him once again the favorite for the Republican nomination, filling his coffers with fresh donations, and raising the very real possibility that Trump will get the unique opportunity to pardon himself of any convictions. If only Democrats had left Trump alone, Republicans would have surely never nominated him again, but they didn’t. So there. And they all lived angrily ever after.
If this sounds familiar, that’s because this story keeps coming up in articles, opinion columns, and everywhere on Fox News. It’s a repeat of the same stories that were told about Trump’s indictment in New York, only with an extra dash of how “Biden is the person really on trial.”
Every word of this story is absolute bulls**t.
