Charlie Sykes: “The puppy-killing ICE Barbie has been benched; Greg Bovino, the cosplaying Himmler has been fired. And Trump has dispatched Border Czar Tom Homan to Minneapolis…”
“While the humiliation of Kristi Noem and Bovino’s defenestration are delicious, we should stifle any naive exuberance about what’s happening here.”
“On the surface, it looks like Trump blinked… Unfortunately, this is piffle on stilts… Indeed, regarding the deployment of Tom Homan as ‘conciliatory’ is what Daniel Patrick Moynihan once described as ‘defining deviancy down’ — shifting standards to redefine anti-social or deviant behavior as more or less normal.”
Ron Fournier: “President Trump and his team lied about what we all saw in Minneapolis. Now they want us to believe they’re atoning. Don’t believe them.”
