The Spin
Republican narrative
The biggest constitutional crisis in modern history has been exposed. Biden's handlers orchestrated a massive cover-up while an incapacitated president sat in the Oval Office with unelected staff making critical decisions affecting national policy. The Democrats' boycott proves their guilt in this scandal.
Democratic narrative
Republicans are wasting time on political theater instead of addressing real oversight issues, like recent assassinations and military deployments. This armchair diagnosis of a former president distracts from Trump's own concerning behavior and statements that raise legitimate questions about his fitness.
