    You know someone’s no longer talking in good faith when they use words like “inappropriate and outrageous” to describe the suggestion of abolishing a department that didn’t exist 25 years ago. This is someone consciously and openly attempting to shift the Overton Window so that they don’t keep getting called on to defend the indefensible.

      John “Trump Signs Are PA’s State Flower” Fetterman not talking in good faith? Say it ain’t so!

      My favorite Fetterman moment was when he castigated Democrats for mentioning trump’s felony convictions, saying we were supposed to be the party of “forgiveness and redemption”. Imagine consciously throwing away a political advantage like your opponent’s crimes - it’s like refusing to blink when your opponent throws sand in your eyes.
