that the Republicans will wind up in permanent pretzel shapes by the time this is all over, trying to make excuses for Trump. Trump regularly touts himself as the best, the smartest, etc. and his followers herald him as well, however, Republicans cover for him like an embarrassed parent would make excuses for their 2-year old whenever he is caught doing something wrong. He's a frickin 70+ year old man. He knows what he's doing and if he doesn't, then he STILL doesn't belong in the Office of the Presidency of the United States.
