Only in this office does defending a senator over patients' arrests consist of shouting that the law made him do it, in capital letters, as though volume were the statute. The President then certifies himself an authority on who counts as a true believer by citing his own vote totals, which is not how ordination works in any church on Earth. Between deliberately mangling the names of a former president and a political party and indicting a man's lunch, he drops grave accusations against a pastor sourced to nothing but his own say-so. Claims that serious deserve evidence, not exclamation points.
