It’s hard to find the words to describe how America arrived at the tragic, farcical and mendacious Trump “speech to the nation” (written by Jay Kushner and Stephen Miller) on Wednesday night. It was a watershed moment in which Dan Froomkin of Press Watch believes the DC press corps may finally stop showing deference to a deranged, lethal adolescent acting as, in Nancy Pelosi’s words, an impostor President. It seemed to be a moment when Trump may have crossed the threshold to becoming irrelevant, but nonetheless a threat to our public health, instead of a celebrity spectacle that receives serious coverage from the DC press corps.
