4. I don't appreciate being accused of promoting right-wing talking points.

The fact that the GOPers and Fox and their fellow travelers are doing exactly what they would have done if the Woodward tapes had come out in February proves the point. It's not a right-wing talking point - quite the opposite - to state that Trump and his minions would have done exactly what they're doing now, which is obfuscating and excusing, and trying to discredit Woodward. I maintain that nothing would have changed, and that is NOT a right-wing talking point.
