Matt Braynard actually believes the incarcerated terrorists of the J6 attack are "political prisoners"

I think you’re being too literal here. This isn’t complicated. However, if you really want to try to unpack it at all the levels, Vietnam was many things but included a clash of political ideologies, presumably capitalism vs. communism. Equally, 9/11 had many driving factors, but included a clash of political ideology. Likewise, both absolutely did have a powerful impact on our elections. Johnson didn’t run for a second term. Bush gained popularity he didn’t deserve, used it to launch the Iraq war, and by wagging that dog helped guarantee himself a second term. And before you say that any of that is a reach or whatever, realize that I never took it that far. I’m just, in this post, looking to quell your impulse to keep explaining to me what I basically said in the first place: That Braynard’s dickish comment is stupid. And could only make sense if it were reframed. I’m not sure why you’re not picking up on that.
