So, how will Republicans make their choice between the Titanic and the Hindenberg? America’s Most Beloved and Principled Policy Wonk still thinks that his best chance of getting savage cuts in spending for the poor and massive tax cuts for the rich is to go the Tucker Carlson route:

“It is obvious—there are some people out there who want to harm the president,” [Granny-Starver] said. “We have an obligation to carry out our oversight, regardless of which party is in the White House. That means before rushing to judgment we get all the pertinent information.”

That’s one of the more creative lines of defense we’re hearing from Republicans. You’ve got the bald “it’s not illegal if the president does it,” the new and creative “he didn’t mean it, he just says dumb things,” and this one—the real problem are the enemies of Trump, the people who leaked the fact that he leaked classified intelligence to the Russians and, apparently, James Comey.

But it’s not really his problem, Ryan added, actually saying “I don’t worry about things that are outside of my control.” Leadership! Also, too, does he still have confidence in Trump? “I do,” he says. And he will continue to until he gets to end Medicare as we know it.

Now let’s those green eyeshades on and try to take health insurance from 24 million people.
