"...a West Point commencement address was something close to a sacrament". So true, yet sacrament, shmacrement in our current Idiocracy. It's only been four months. It's conventional wisdom at this point, but true: We can't survive four years of this insanity as a republic.
A grown man delivering remarks at a sacred and distinguished U.S. institution while wearing a gaudy baseball cap to cover his bad hair. Pathetic. Yet the Sunday shows are still talking about Biden‘s mental acuity, with no mention of this embarrassment at West Point. Media at its finest.
Trump is being sane washed at every point in the media. The desire to have ‘normal’ dialogue is such a compulsion they will not see what is happening. I wonder how the young officer corps sees all this, whether they will go along with it, try to get ahead in the way Trump wants them to, or will insist on upright moral service?
Actually on msnbc on the new 4 person show that includes Ayman Mohyeldin, they did dig into this issue after having Alex Thompson on the show. He co-wrote the book with Jake Tapper. The hosts grilled him about the lopsided way the two men’s mental decline is reported on.
Then after the guest left, they continued to discuss it among themselves, & Ayman in particular, was quite insistent that the press should be much more aggressive in asking Trump, & those around him, about the rambling talk that makes no sense, the forgetting or mixing up of names, etc.

Thank you,

If only they would!
