    It’s always the same game, vehemently disavow the thing you’re about to do, right up until the moment you do it.

    MAGA disavowed Project 2025, right until the minute that Trump won, surprise! They were Project 2025 all along.

    Putin disavowed an invasion of Ukraine, he was just running some training exercises, right up to the minute he started the invasion.

    Nazis will disavow genocide even while they’re building the concentration camps.

      That sounds so familiar … invasion, of, a sovereign nation? Maybe around three years ago? Just can’t quite put my finger on it.
