Kayleigh McEnany illuminates the United States

“When President Trump was president, you didn’t see crisis after crisis. You just didn’t see it.”

Yes. She really said it. With his face straight. (And yes, of course, he was on Fox News with Jesse Watters).

The crisis-free administration that McEnany plans to include (among other things):

* Donald Trump was accused by the House of attempting a quid pro quo with Ukraine

* Donald Trump was indicted by the House for his role in the January 6 Capitol Uprising, an insurgency that left more than 100 police officers injured and five people killed

* The Covid-19 pandemic sweeping the United States

* 37 people and entities charged with crimes as part of Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 elections. Seven people were sentenced to prison.

That’s just the big hits, eh, failures. The four years Trump spent as president were defined by chaos and crises; it seemed to attract them like moths to the flame.

What McEnany does here is classic gas lighting. Try to make yourself believe that the way you remember the last four years is wrong. That things were very beautiful and without crisis. – under Trump.

McEnany is far from alone in trying to rewrite Trump’s story. The former president’s allies have been trying to erase the memory of all sorts of ugliest elements of his tenure, concentrating most of his energy on January 6th. fateful day.)

The point: McEnany’s comment is no accident. It’s part of a concerted effort to shed light on the United States on how the last four years really were.
