Congressional Historian on Trump’s Mental Capacity: ‘Sadly, Mainstream Media Continue to Normalize the Abnormal’
EXCERPT:
ORNSTEIN: “You know, sadly, Lawrence, our mainstream press continue to normalize the abnormal and treat Trump as if he were a standard president, maybe, you know, sometimes deviating. They — we will see good investigative articles, often very good op-eds, but then we’ll see headlines about speeches like he gave at West Point, completely unhinged, treated as if they are reasonable speeches. And this focus on Biden, I believe, with a press corps giving out medals to those writing books about Biden’s capacity, saying, see, they’re the ones responsible for what’s happened here and why we have Trump without even reflecting on their own culpability for not holding a truly unhinged president accountable is a real, a serious part of the problem. I would also note, Lawrence, that the other day, Trump signed a slew of executive orders, and it was clear he had no clue what these did or what was in them.”
