        This is a completely *orthodox* position in elite media circles. It's not bold, courageous, or novel to scream it in the Washington Post.

        It's a position shared near-universally among the elite who think they're bold truth-tellers for proclaiming it

        It's a popular idea because literally anybody in possession of their faculties can see how true it is.

        Michael is not interested in questions of truth, but rather maintaining his anti-anti-Trump street creds.

        Jeet is interested in his incessant pseudo-psychologizing. Enjoy.

        That would be valid point if Michael had linked to a news article rather than clearly labelled opinion piece

        Honestly it's the most pointless column I've ever read in my life. I'm not even sure who it's written for.

        At least it is listed under "opinions"... which is sadly more than we've come to expect from the media.
