Old Soviet joke for today: A man walks into a newsstand every day, looks around, and leaves. After a long time of this, the owner says “Can I help you find something?” “I’m looking for the obituaries.” “The obituaries are in the back of the newspaper, comrade.” “Not the one I’m looking for.”

Trump’s claim that he’s invading Democratic cities and militarily occupying them to “fight crime” is no different than Bush’s claim he was militarily occupying Iraq to “find WMD.” And much of the media is still mindlessly repeating the bullshit premise as if it’s real.
