Even if it isn't that... that's not how you change your position on something.
The normal way would be:
- Admit that you are changing your stance on something (Zelensky is not a dictator, even though I previously said he is)
- Refer to something that changed your position on the matter ("When I said he is a dictator, I did not know that...")
- Explain how it changes your view ("This new information has convinced me that....")
But saying "Oh, I said that?" is just... dumb and pathetic. Not that it's surprising, coming from him.
Each time I read "Trump orders", "Trump does X", I always ask myself: "Wait, can he do that? Congress? House? Judiciary? Cheks? Balances? Hellooooooooooo...?"...
... but this is still the first few months of his second term. At this pace, he will be a literal king in a few more months.
A scary prospect to say the least, and I hope it's not too late for America to do something about this. This should not be normalized. This cannot be normalized.
