Trump proves he’s not very good at the whole ‘spin’ thing as he tries to explain away his convention humiliation

AlterNet logoImpeached bunker-hider Donald Trump’s idiocy, plus the incompetence of his Republican Party, conspired to deliver yet another humiliating defeat to the beleaguered president, forcing them to give up their last-minute attempt to move their convention to Jacksonville, Florida, in a fit of pique. So how do you retreat after making such a big show of dissing Charlotte, North Carolina, along with the Democrats who run the city and state for enforcing limits on public gatherings and mask wearing?

You make stuff up, of course.

Look at Trump’s hilariously bad spin:

Trump said on Thursday he informed his team that his focus was on protecting the American people, even though aides advised him they could make an in-person convention safe.
