Agreed. Especially ridiculous was Joe having to answer for why the National Guard hasn't been called out in Portland.

Five years in, and the media still has no idea how to deal with Trump.

Also in 2016 Trump at least paid lip service to groups outside his base. Last night was completely directed at angry white suburbanites.

pretty funny

Graham, who spoke to The Daily Beast on the phone Tuesday evening, said he did not know whether the information presented by Ratcliffe was true and said he was not concerned with releasing the uncorroborated allegations to the public even with the presidential election just 35 days away.

"There are allegations from the CIA that the Clinton campaign was involved in Russia. I don't know if that is true,” Graham said. “It's not about whether it is true. It's about whether the FBI took [the allegations] seriously. That's the question. I supported the Mueller investigation. I don’t get why you wouldn’t look with the same suspicion with both campaigns. The point is what did they [the FBI] do with the information?"

So are we headed toward Barr trying to cuff Biden and other key Democrats for the cameras? Makes you wonder: What Would Herr Gobbles do?
