There's no doubt about that. But I also want to say this. You know, all presidents sort of feed off of perceptions of the person who came before and they want to position against what people found lacking in the person that came before.

The nature of presidential politics is the bar gets raised constantly.

So the man remained, passed out in the blazing noon sun. I guess that’s how the City of Chicago deals with such situations.

I think the darker interpretation of what we saw today is that they were setting up a pretext, he and the vice president for walking away from Ukraine and blaming Zelenskyy for it.
