Is it time to entertain the idea that the thing Donald Trump has on Graham isn't actually the thing we all assume it is and is in fact something legitimately dark?

As a Brit, I can tell you that The Great British Bake Off's Mexican Week episode is pretty much a perfect masterclass for the uninitiated on the very specific kind of casual racism that is British casual racism.

Kids like Star Wars references so when I have to explain to my classes that gender and sex are two different things and that gender is a social construct I'll usually go "So you know how C3PO is a boy? And how he also doesn't have a penis?"

@Bendladylawyer I think that's probably right. And when Graham tried to break emphatically from Trump post J6, I THINK he was counting on overwhelming support from his colleagues to provide cover to counteract any Trump blackmail. And that never happened. So he went straight back.

Maybe it's just me, but going from "Trump is America's Hitler" to "I changed my mind" needs TWO OR THREE interstitial steps of clarification. Because going from "that guy's Hitler" to "no actually he's fine" is ACTUALLY QUITE A BIG SWING.
