When it comes to matters of burlesque and buffoonery we must instead defer to the experts, the Original Kings of Comedy—the Senate GOP Conference and their cheerleaders in the conservative media. Yes these folks truly have a refined ear for a wisecrack, and their comedic acumen is making lefties nervous.
It was these senators who brushed off Never Trump blowhards like the co-founder of the Federalist Society and recognized some good, old-fashioned tomfoolery when President Trump unleashed another hot fire tweet yesterday morning suggesting that the 2020 vote will be “fraudulent” and we should “delay the election.”
“I think it’s a joke,” said Big John Cornyn, somebody who knows his way around a cheeky tweet about a matter of life or death. North Dakota Senator Kevin Cramer went further, “I laughed, I thought my gosh this is going to consume a lot of people, except real people. And it was clever.”
Clever? Huh. I have to admit, I’m not seeing it.
