Axios reported on Saturday that organizers insist Bush and Obama did not coordinate the timing of their conferences, both of which will focus on “highlighting rising threats from authoritarianism and disinformation — and how to combat them globally and at home,” according to the outlet.

So, we've got:

  1. The president who lied to get us involved in a war and codified a government organization which is actively colluding with tech companies to change public thinking

and

  1. The president who lied about criminal cases to stoke racial tensions, targeted political rivals with the IRS, and used the FBI to fabricate fake stories during a presidential race

(and countless other things in both cases)

are going to lecture us on authoritarianism and disinformation. Well, I guess they're both qualified to do so but something tells me they won't be using these conferences to come clean and apologize.

Because no one cares about the current administration, they have to bring out last seasons models.

At least they admit they are on the same side.

Trump could always delay his announcement another week then.

Good. This will put the nail in the coffin of any fence sitters.

"They're coming after you and me. They are all colluding, bigly, intent on destroying America. Such a shame. Such a shame. They're calling anyone who says this misinformation."

le 5 minutes later...

"I, uh, absolutely denounce Trump and all his lies. He's divisive and his rhetoric is destructive. There is no collusion between my predecessor and I and the world governments. It's, uh, all just...misinformation."

"Heck of a job, Brownie."

He might as well call them out by name at this point.
