Certain conservative columnists who now disdain Trump still can't help but remind us but that their heavily coded and hypocritical "values" arguments set the stage for this pathological presidency.

I don’t know what that means, but I do know that article is generally correct, and I do know that Reza and co. have engaged in rather embarrassing-to-watch doubling-down after the full story emerged. (For the record, I’m abt as lib and anti-Trump as people get... within reason.)

So you watched the extended videos, and the way the kids behaved seems like a reasonable and respectable way for older high school kids to behave at the national mall on a school field trip?
-
They were there minding their own business. You call that douchey? Is there something wrong with you? Some kids would have gotten confrontational or even physical. He sat there smiling waiting for the fake Vietnam vet to go away. Why are you not saying they were acting douchey?
-
Fake Vietnam Vet?! Really? That’s how you honor veterans?
-
The man said he was a Vietnam vet. He isn't. The man said he was harassed by teens. He wasn't. He tried to harass them. That's really why people are pissed. The kid didn't back down. Unlike several other accounts from that day where children ran from him when he did it to them.
-
The teens did a tomahawk chop in the face of an native elder. That's harassment, so you're lying or misled there. He's a veteran who served during the Vietnam conflict even though he was never deployed in-country, so that's a nitpick. Go back to your hole.

They didn't spin anything. There's video footage of the whole thing. You people have just lost your minds.

I’ve written about these young men lacking the awareness that they were in the space of a Native American Veteran as he performed a sacred ritual.Sorry, Nick Sandmann, you were in HIS face.There was no respect for Omaha Elder Nathan Phillips,rather a smug smile sans respect. 1)
-
Exactly who made Phillips the Grand Poo-bah that should be bowed down to in reverence? He's nothing but a charlatan who acted like he had fought in Vietnam but didnt. He was discharged with a shameful record AND he bullies kids by beating a drum in their face. Respect is earned!
