Sean Duffy spent seven months filming a family road-trip reality show while serving as Transportation Secretary. The criticism coming from the left is about optics and gas prices. Mike's actual take: he doesn't care about the show. What he cares about is that the same people outraged right now said nothing when cabinet officials flew private to climate conferences. Duffy drove America with his nine kids and called it 'to love America is to see America.' Mike can live with that. Button: the outrage is selective and everybody knows it.

Video pillar, talking-head delivery works for a hot reactive take. Named secretary, named quote, specific contrast with prior administration behavior. Different emotional lane than recent videos on Whirlpool and Cuban spy story.

Script

Democrats are furious that Sean Duffy drove across America with his nine kids and filmed it. [pause] That's the scandal. A family road trip. Called it 'To love America is to see America.' I can live with that. [pause] Where was this energy when cabinet officials were flying private to climate conferences? Nothing. Silence. [pause] Duffy put his family in a car and drove the country. That used to be called summer. [pause] The people yelling loudest right now said nothing when it was their guys. That's not principle. That's politics. Take note.

They're mad Duffy took a road trip. Real selective memory on those private jets. #maga #politics #media #america
