When CNN decided to let Trump lie with zero fact checking, it gave Trump its biggest gift to date.
@jessica_fey @dangillmor Democrats NEVER have what it take to roll in the mud and deal with the GOP's lies and crap. You cannot win a mudwrestling match without rolling in the mud.
When your opponent swings at your kneecaps with the sword, you must go low with your own sword if you wish to parry. "They go low, we go high" means getting cut off at the knees, every time.
Problem is, the Dems and the GOP have a lot of the same masters, thus we see things like prioritizing keeping the Senate running over stopping the Trump SCOTUS nominations.
