#ReportFromTheRed: Sunday morning

I’ve seen, just now, the first coverage of Manafort’s trial.

“Oh that would be interesting to find out. For about 5 minutes.”

“Only 5 minutes?”

“Yeah.”
“I heard the accountant falsified his books for him, and she should’ve told him the legal ratifications of that.”

(accountants aren’t lawyers)

“Either way, she should’ve told him, and not did it. It’s wrong. And now she gets immunity.”

“You know, China better calm down with their tariffs. We bought [4?] billion more in their product, and they didn’t buy ours. Their people are starving, they better stop this war. We’ll crush em.”

#ReportFromTheRed

A random stranger saw my “Nevertheless, She Persisted” shirt.

/thread
I’m in Chicago, wearing said shirt. A stranger passes me in the hallway, and says, “excuse me, I love your shirt! We can do it, right? November! Primaries! We gotta vote!”
I of course agreed with her, and turned back to my people. They look at my shirt.

“Neverth—what does that even mean?”

#ReportFromTheRed: 7/15

Today was a hectic news day. There’s no way this red household followed it, but here are the comments from a small, local news blurb tonight. /thread
[news of trump allowing Putin to say meddling didn’t happen]

“But. I mean. He wasn’t president in 2016. He wasn’t overlooking all of these agencies.”

“Yeah, it’s Strzok, it’s Comey, etc.”
“But they indicted those Russians, so what do you say to that, Mr. Trump’s #1 fan??”

[deflect to Hillary’s emails]

“Ugh, yeah, she should’ve been arrested for that. God, I hate her. I know people who worked on her campaign in DC - said she was a massive bitch.”

#ReportFromTheRed: Strzok

Things have been hectic lately. But this hearing was too big to go without a comment or two from the right.

#Strzok should be indicted.”

/thread
“He was asked where he got the dossier, and he got it from that [Asain man’s] wife that was on the committee with Hillary. I’m telling you man, that dossier is fake.”
“They indicted 12 Russians today. But they’ve tried that already, and not one of them were charged. I bet you none of these will be charged either.”

#ReportFromTheRed: immigration and the Texas internment camps

/thread
I asked The Red what they thought of families being separated at the border. Among the arguments:
- it’s my actually happening
- this is a US policy going back to the Bushes
- parents send their children across first
- the photos are from the lying media
I now realize that while they simultaneously believe Fox News, they will not believe anything about this issue unless they see it with their own eyes.
