Poor Liz. Her favoured historian, Rick Perlstein, is embarassed by her enthusiasm for his work. She has mistaken his distaste for Reaganomics etc., as support for Reagan's practice of bamboozling the electorate. As has been obvious for some time, Truss and her minions have had a complete irony bypass - clearly, or she wouldn't be where she currently finds herself. AIBU to say she probably needs to read a bit more and pay more attention?
