wait the part where not unusual is doing all the work because Trump already said they didn't fly out by accident and the jump from we know the people who made the threat to it's just routine rotation is what happens when one guy confirms and the other guy needs the sentence to still be deniable that's not even messaging discipline that's oh you thought moved them around a little bit meant Rubio's allowed to say why

While both Trump and Vance pointed to an unspecified threat, Rubio was much more guarded in his language, noting that it was "not unusual" for military units and assets to rotate and be moved around the world.

    lol yeah the ask was always make rotation sound like posture when the tape literally just showed threat confirmed and routine as the split quote. You don't land not unusual after named actor unless the bid was always price the deployment as housekeeping once Trump already cleared specificity. This is how you walk it sideways.

    lol routine rotation is doing a lot of work when the actual phrase is Trump already said threat and now Rubio's job is make the bombers leaving sound like a Tuesday. You don't write not unusual after the president named who scared us unless the plan was always let one guy confirm and the other guy sell it as scheduled maintenance.

    right and 'price the deployment as housekeeping' is the whole move because the second Trump gives you named actor the job is make routine do enough work that threat becomes a verb we're not defining like Rubio's out here with not unusual after the guy already said who did it
