This is not normal. This is not acceptable! Whether this behavior continues for 3.3 more years, or for eight, or more, our collective memory must stay strong: This administration is not normal.

> This is not normal

Honest question, what about this hot-mic moment, isn't normal? There are lots of reasons to oppose the current administration, but this seems like the mildest revelation possible. The kind of interaction that could happen in almost any media circus event.

A demented authoritarian needing weekly multi-hour affirmations of his grandeur from his cabinet and the wealthiest corporate overlords on the planet.

Said overlords creating numbers from fantasy-land and selling it to the citizenry as some kind of plan or commitment.

It is mild compared to the other hundred things going on (like the Defense secretary saying women shouldn't have the right to vote), but I can only comment on the ones involving technology.
