Dan Pfeiffer

He's trying to fight people left and right.

Because it's hard to think of a more pedantic, less interesting, more morally vacuous response to these sort of outrageous, hateful comments than to say, than to adopt the approach that everything my side does is fine, everything your side does is wrong.

It's like he just lacks any thoughtfulness in any way, shape, or form.

It would have been so easy to say what was in this was wrong and also what Democrats have said, like Attorney General Jay Jones of Virginia, was wrong.

You could say both things are wrong.

That's a very viable thing.

Yeah.

It's not that hard to do it.

It's not that hard to do it, but he's so simple-minded in his pursuit of approbation from the MAGA set.

And it's because he knows that he himself is full of shit.

Right?

JD Vance of six years ago...

would have trashed this, right?

But he knows that he once was a traitor to the cause by calling Trump Hitler.

And so he has to bend so far in the other direction to try to prove his maga bona fides.

And it's just so, it's lame.

It's just so lame.

Everything about him is so lame.

There is something in online MAGA alt-right world where you get points for defending the indefensible.

If you will go where no one else will go, right, then you somehow get points of loyalty to the cause, whatever it is.
