    It’s weird that Republicans latched onto something Obama did that Mr Bush did a few times each.

    Except, in the past, tan suits and coloured face paint weren’t a sin; now we see it’s only an issue for them based on who’s doing it and whether they can rephrase and leverage it. Put Obama in mime makeup and a tan suit and some barely-used heads will explode.

      It isn’t weird.

      He was black which is what they ‘latched’ on to. From that perspective - everything he does, wear, eat, say is wrong.

      Just like that removed Karen in HR, or some mean aunt, you probably hate. Once you have decided you hate someone - everything they do will be wrong. Even when it is a kind gesture - you will assume an ulterior motive.

      It’s not weird. They just don’t give a fuck about truth or consistency. Consider: “what about her emails” vs. whatever it is they are saying about having boxes of classified documents and a copy machine in the bathroom.

      What they care about is creating, maintaining, and empowering white supremacist hierarchies. Truth and integrity are secondary to their hierarchy.
