Today's Tiedrich rant: gaslighting Republicans turn the bullshit dial up to eleven
Link: https://www.jefftiedrich.com/p/gaslighting-republicans-turn-the
“look what you made me do” is classic abuser’s language. it’s your own fucking fault that I went ape-shit on you.
that’s the attitude Republicans took on the Sunday shows, as they explained how it was Zelensky’s own fault that he got ambushed and tag-teamed by Donny Convict and Couchfuck McGee: look at what he made them do.
he should have shown deference. he shouldn’t have talked back. he shouldn’t have been dressed provocatively. he shouldn’t have been walking out alone late at night.
here’s Tulsi Gabbard, doing what she does best: mouthing Putin’s talking points.
Length 1:01 (closed captions available)
what the fuck is Tulsi gibbering about, ‘Zelensky’s immediate escalation’? Zelensky walked into a trap that was set by Donny and Vance. they were the aggressors. we all saw it happen.

when President Zelensky directly challenged President Trump and Vice President Vance in front of the media and the American people, he really showed his lack of interest in an real good-faith negotiations. I can tell you there were a lot of conversations that were happening through different emissaries, both for President Zelensky and President Trump, leading up to his visit to the Oval Office. and President Zelensky’s immediate escalation there, was frankly quite a surprise.”

Great rant by Jeff Tiedrich ... there's much more to unpack here. Please read the rest on "Everyone is entitled to my own opinion."
Bye-the-bye, does anyone else notice that Tulsi lost her gray streak? She's back to being an all-natural brunette again.
