Conway continued: "Why did he do that? He did that for exactly the same reasons. He did that because two Iraqi nationals came to this country, joined ISIS, traveled back to the Middle East to get trained and refine their terrorism skills and come back here and were the masterminds behind the Bowling Green massacre of taking innocent soldiers' lives away."

McConnell repeatedly on tv this weekend offering soft criticisms of Trump and hard stances on voter fraud investigations. Liz Cheney tweeting about the new Putin remarks. Charlie Sykes and John Woo writing op eds.

Seems like another week of messes could bring about a real republican tonal shift.

After this election I have zero reason to believe anyone is going to change unless it's for the worse.

Kanye West is no longer Team Trump, according to TMZ. The rapper apparently deleted some tweets about the President of his own volition after disapproving of his actions during his first two weeks in office.

Cathleen Decker, of LA Times: "Included in the list of attacks that Trump says were not covered much were the Paris nightclub, Nice, Brussels and San Bernardino."

White House releases examples of attacks the media ignored. Misspells the word attacker. Every time.

I think Trump thinks that "ignoring" means not coming to the same conclusions he does about how afraid we should be and how wildly we should react to terror attacks. The "media" can say that terror attacks happen all the time, but if they don't include in that coverage the idea that all the baddies are coming to get us and we need to be very very afraid, to Trump that is "ignoring" an essential part of the story.

There was an article on The Ringer a bit after the election that argued they should have had a woman play Trump.
