Boy, you jumped quickly from how "we" don't know exactly what Trump did or didn't do -- you are always good at finding epistemic uncertainty in things you don't want to talk about, but don't seem to have any problem with horserace political coverage that is 100% speculation -- to suggesting that "I" am crafting an imaginary horserace. Dude, *you* are the one who finds horseraces compelling. If you think I "assumed" something in some post, point it out. But whatever I'm doing, I'm not watching horses race.
