      The republicans have been brainwashing their base to believe Democrats and Liberals are Satan’s minions, just pure evil. They’ll believe anything that fits that narrative. Remember the guy that shot up a pizza place because the right wing fronted a conspiracy theory that Hillary was running a pedophile ring in the basement.

      How stupid of a journalist/interviewer you have to be not to call out that bullshit and not relent until this fucker corrects his words on camera.

      Absolutely not. These people know exactly what they’re doing. Except Donnie Cheeto of course, who genuinely has no idea of what is true and what is false. That’s why he comes across as so “authentic” to the morons.

        Yeah this guy is a Yale/Harvard grad. He’s not stupid, but he knows what stupid people will believe and he knows how to say it convincingly
