Thing is? Chris Wallace is a dyed-in-the-wool conservative partisan. He's about as right as Jon Stewart is left. But he's not willing to say anything, do anything, be anything in order to advance the agenda of whatever Republican is calling the shots.

We've just fallen so far that Democrats are cheering on the Lawful Evil the same way they rallied around the Dixie Chicks. Because holy mother of god. The alternative is Stephen Fucking Miller.

That said, it is noteworthy that Stephen Fucking Miller went on a softball Sunday morning Fox News show thinking he'd get a softball interview and the best softball Fox News can serve up right now is "respectfully, cut the bullshit." Dollars to donuts, if Stephen Fucking Miller could have come up with some vaguely plausible talking points they would have let him run.

You can tell me not to get excited that there are still some people on the right living in the same reality as us and willing to call out Trump's brazen propagandists, but I'm still going to get excited.

Edit: You never said that at all, I just got excited.

I am not at all upset that we might have found the bottom of the bottomless pit of Republican opportunism.
