    Yep. I deal with a short tail relative almost every day on this.

    He regurgitates the same shit we see from the Trumptards here. Sites the same bullshit, propaganda websites.

    But not only about Trump. Even when presented with numerous articles on COVID, the same mis- and malinformation.

    ^ Truth. It's willful for the most part with the RWers, too. They deliberately refuse to entertain other explanations for things. Example: We had a neighbor who was a 22-year veteran of the air force, and then worked the next 20 years for the government as security for the CDC, until he retired. He has a BS degree and is intelligent. He is also, as you probably guessed, very conservative. We were talking one day about how the last coal-fired plant here shut down and was replaced by hydro and natural gas plants. He was earnestly explaining to us that if Obama hadn't stifled the coat industry with over-regulation, that this would not have happened. Mr. Owl mildly explained in rebuttal that the coal industry's problems are not caused by over-regulation, but by economics. He included some statistics about the costs per kilowatt, delivery costs, clean-up costs, etc. between the two forms of energy production. Our neighbor -- who is a very nice guy and not argumentative at all -- just kind of shook his head in disbelief. I imagine to this day that he *still* blames Obama for the shutdown of the coal-burning plants.

    OK, libs watch this" in 2022 Trump runs for congress from florida, he wins, republicans gain control of the house and the senate. and Trump is elected speaker of the house, his first act as speaker is to impeach Biden and Harris. Trump becomes president again for 2 years, and then runs in 2024 and wins again.

    It could happen. and it just might.

    I’ve seen family members that I thought were sensible be sucked into the lies. I love them because they are my family, but I no longer like them because they have shown me who they are. I plan to refuse all invitations to visit. We converse on family texts, but it’s all very superficial. I plan not to attend future family reunions. My nephew did contact me about a liberal family meet up at my place when COVID is over. I agreed to host it.

    Today the savior speaks to his disciples. I know I can't wait. Four years of lies followed by … what, one wonders, for without white supremist Stephen Miller what will he preach to the flock? What magic what prophesy what hopes what words for the needy who miss the tweets, who miss the sublime rants, and rallies. The fist pumping, the clapping, the finger pointed at the cheering crowds. Idols have such power over their followers. Let us know what the greatness spoke that made you smile and nod and laugh. One last note, the irony of his image made in Mexico must certainly amuse.

    'Golden Trump statue turning heads at CPAC was made in Mexico'

    https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...ue-mexico-cpac

    “Zegan spent over six months crafting the 200lb fiberglass statue with the help of three men in Rosarito. He transported it to Tampa, Florida, where it was painted in chrome, then hauled it from there to CPAC.”


    "Ye shall make you no idols nor graven image, neither rear you up a standing image, neither shall ye set up any image of stone in your land, to bow down unto it: for I am the Lord your God." Bible in Exodus 20:3, Matthew 4:10, Luke 4:8 and elsewhere
    Wanna make America great, buy American owned, made in the USA, we do. AF Veteran, INFJ-A, I am not PC.

    "I have never made but one prayer to God, a very short one: 'O Lord make my enemies ridiculous.' And God granted it." Voltaire

    well no matter how you did it, you fools removed Trump from office. Are you happy with senile Joe and his 30 EOs that have put thousands of union workers out otwork and increased fuel prices? Are you happy that illegals will be flooding across our borders bringing drugs and diseases to your kids? Are you happy that we are helping Iran make a nuclear bomb and that China now rules the USA?

    They weren’t all that bright to begin with. Toss in the victim thing that Trump promoted for pissed off white people who think they’ve been bypassed.
