I'm not a vegetarian, but I eat animals who are.
Hate the Sinner, Hate the Sin
David Frum, via Nick Cataggio:
Nobody seems to have language to say: We abhor, reject, repudiate, and punish all political violence, even as we maintain that Trump remains himself a promoter of such violence, a subverter of American institutions, and the very opposite of everything decent and patriotic in American life.

If Trump ever used words to render reality, I never heard it.*
Heather Cox Richardson:
- Trump said that some Democratic states allow people to execute babies after they’re born and that every legal scholar wanted Roe v. Wade overturned — both fantastical lies.
- Trump said that the deficit is at its highest level ever and that the U.S. trade deficit is at its highest ever: both of those things happened during his administration.
- Trump lied that there were no terrorist attacks during his presidency; there were many.
- Trump said that Biden wants to quadruple people’s taxes — “pure fiction,” according to CNN fact-checker Daniel Dale
