Every nuance is spun (yeah, I know I just did it but I didn’t edit or decontextualize) and every normal stumble is put under a magnifying glass. They don’t WANT to understand. They want to weaponize.

I certainly spin my share but I’m careful to try to be accurate and complete.

Dementia my ass. ALSO, there’s no such thing as a president. He’s a conglomerate, admittedly if his and his advisors’ selectees. And that works for good or bad.
