Which would be fine and I wouldn't have made my comment.
That's not what's happening, moderate politicians and mainstream media are celebrating a war criminal's endorsement of Kamala...
So in your hypothetical scenario that's isn't based on reality, we'd agree.
But do you agree with me that in real life, we should be ignore Dick Cheney except to talk about how he still needs to be held accountable for war crimes?
The media follows what will get attention, unfortunately. Probably true of some politicians as well. He should absolutely be held responsibly for all he did, but understandably the news topic is how even diehard Republicans of old are turning on Trump. I note that apparently GWB has decided to not be public about anything, which sort of says he's in the same boat, he just maybe doesn't want or need the publicity.
Are they celebrating, or just pointing at the "betrayal" as more evidence of a collapsing campaign? Maybe if they just have the headline say "Enabler of crimes against humanity also against Trump" to cover all bases.
