Hur Hearing Highlights – Digby's Hullabaloo

This is epic. Rep. Swalwell just played this minute-long montage featuring Trump’s gaffes and mental decline. The best part about it? He forced Fox to carry it live to their audience too. Democrats came to play today & it’s glorious. pic.twitter.com/HFeheBBc4F

By the way, the president of the Virgin Islands is the President of the United States. He didn’t know that just as he didn’t know that Puerto Rico is a US territory.

I didn’t watch the whole thing but from the reports it appears that the Republicans held a hearing in which the Democrats showed a bunch of clips of Donald Trump sounding demented, illustrating that Donald Trump’s classified documents theft is a serious crime and getting the Special Prosecutor to admit that he said that Biden had a photographic memory but didn’t include that in his report. Other than that it went really well for the Republicans.

I encourage you to watch this exchange between @tedlieu and former Special Counsel Robert Hur in its entirety. These are key points and distinctions between the conduct of President Biden and the conduct of Donald Trump. They are enormous. pic.twitter.com/wzv0addOR2

Rep. @ericswalwell points out that Republican counsel Robert Hur left out in his report the fact that during his interview he praised President Biden’s “photographic” memory and how “well” he remembered things pic.twitter.com/TLMLpBc1k1

Hur is given a chance to correct the record on the claim he made about President Biden’s memory of the date of his son’s death. Hur claims that it’s not correct that Biden remembered the date and has to be reminded that Biden did remember from the transcript pic.twitter.com/yUudvV1nC5
