Now try apologizing for real, where you don't blame the victim of your lies.

The rationalization from Jonah Goldberg here for why he lied about Trump’s Cheney comments is no different than the rapist who blames his victim for wearing a short skirt. The victim was asking for it, you see.
Goldberg has no agency and nothing is ever his fault. He’s just a poor, fat NPC blob programmed to gobble up everything CNN shoves down his filthy gullet.
He’s only in the news business. You can’t expect him to watch a 30-second video clip or read a whole paragraph of text before barfing out the first stupid thought that comes to him. He’s a journo, not a miracle worker!
Mind you, this is *his* rationale for why he chose to eat a heaping bowl of excrement on live television today. Donald Trump made him do that. Don’t you see?? “Things got a little out of hand. It’s just this war and that lying SOB Trump!”
This is the kind of intellect we’re dealing with here. And remember: this also isn’t the first time he blatantly lied this week. He also lied about J.D. Vance’s response to the first Trump assassination attempt in Butler and unintentionally projected onto him Goldberg’s own impotence and cowardice.
But the thing to really know about Goldberg is that nothing on earth enrages him more than being called out by a woman who’s smarter and more successful than he is. That explains the 160-proof bile he spewed at Mollie Hemingway. That explains his rage. He can’t contain the bitter envy anymore. He’s a joke, and she’s beloved, and crapping your pants while stepping on a rake for the whole world to see is bad enough without the person you hate more than anything showing up to point out what a sad moron you’ve become.
And it also explains why no sane person should ever pay a single second attention to anything he says ever again. The man is a joke, and jokes are meant to be laughed at.
If Milley had such objections to Trump being Commander in Chief, not relied on his obviously flawed opinions and committed treason. Jonah the Whale shouldn’t let his childish imagination run away with him so. I will never understand why these people hate Trump so much that they allow their fantasies to control their lives.
