Putin loves you; therefore, you love Putin. The enemy re-tweets you, therefore, you’re in league with the enemy. We’re at war with them, therefore we’re at war with you.One of the first rules of a shunning campaign is that it doesn’t have to make sense. It just has to be what everyone’s saying.

The first thing the American drug agents who arrived on the scene wanted to do was to make sure that the corpse was actually Escobar’s.
