Vice President Kamala Harris, her surrogates and media handmaidens spent three days putting a comedian’s ill-chosen words in Donald Trump’s mouth. Now they are pretending the sitting president didn’t call Trump supporters “garbage” and, even if he did it’s irrelevant because Harris is the one running for president. Double standards, much?
