    Default GOP Rep. Says ‘Nobody Actually Believes’ Election Was Stolen From Donald Trump

    Just as I suspected. Most RepubliQans don't really believe Trump's Big Lie. They just say they do because they think it triggers the left. I don't think Trump really believes it. He's just fomenting the lie to fleece his gullible base. His campaign has collected over 80 billion on the lie and hasn't donated ONE DIME on the audits.

    SUCKERS!

    Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) said Wednesday that the vast majority of his Republican colleagues don’t believe ex-President Donald Trump’s election lies, even though they may continue to peddle them in public.

    “Save one or two maybe out here, nobody ― and I think it’s very important to repeat ― nobody actually believes the election was stolen from Donald Trump, but a lot of them are happy to go out and say it was,” Kinzinger told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer.

    Blitzer asked Kinzinger, one of two Republicans on the nine-member House select committee investigating the U.S. Capitol riot, if any of his fellow GOP lawmakers had “actually privately said to you, ‘Good work, I support you.’”

    “Yes, oh yeah, yeah,” responded Kinzinger, who has become one of his party’s fiercest critics of its twice-impeached former president.

    “Is it just one or two? Is it a handful? Give me a ballpark number,” the CNN anchor pressed.

    “There’s a lot of people, you know. And they come up and say it,” replied Kinzinger. “It’s not any of the ones that go on TV and spout the big lie and then say it. It’s the ones that are staying more quiet that I think appreciate the stand. But it’s a lot.”

    Blitzer asked Kinzinger if he’d thought of switching parties.

    “No. Look, I’m a Republican at heart, right?” he replied. “I was a Republican way before Donald Trump, since I was 6 years old. I believe in the values I’m fighting for and I believe that a party of such a great rich history deserves to have people, even if it’s only a couple of us at the moment, in there fighting to restore the soul of it. So I’m gonna fight hard for that.”
    Republican Congressman Ken Buck:
    “We’re at a time in American politics, that I am not going to lie on behalf of my presidential candidate, on behalf of my party. And I’m very sad that others in my party have taken the position that, as long as we get the White House, it doesn’t really matter what we say,”

    The Stooges do. They've been convinced by the Puppet Masters. This a a great case of 'Manipulation'. You have to hand it to Trump and the other Con Artists for pulling this off.

    Trump himself doesn't believe it. He only wants the flock to believe it so they can somehow shoehorn him back in.

    He believes in the money it’s raising for him.

    Trump claimed the election was blatantly stolen by dark forces, and that the fate of the Republic was at stake if Biden were nominated.

    And yet every single JPP Deplorable spent January 6th sitting on their asses in front of a keyboard.

    And that in spite of years of blustering about second amendment solutions, watering the tree of liberty with blood, and hollering they would pledge their life to fighting socialism.

    Nope, the keyboard warriors themselves never actually believed Trump's lies, though they are recalcitrant to admit it.

    Lie. Tens of millions of Republicans across the country, and even a number of now-former Democrats, believe that the election was stolen from Trump.

    No. They say it because there is overwhelming evidence for it. The latest example was when the "most popular President in history" Joe Biden dared to show his face in Pennsylvania, a State that he is claimed to have "won". Biden got greeted by thousands of people alright, but too bad they all happened to be conservatives who jeered at Biden and flipped him off. Yup, Biden is DEFINITELY "the most popular President in history"........ Yup, Biden DEFINITELY "won in a landslide" the "safest most secure election in history"......

    You are not only being manipulated, but you are being outright lied to. OPEN YOUR EYES AND LOOK AROUND YOU....

    I think when Trump first started the lie, he just threw it out there to see if it would have legs. Then when Lindell, Flynn, Giuliani, The Kraken Woman and his minions ran with it, he thought, "Hey, I could work this to my advantage".

    Eh, maybe not. Trump just isn't that smart.

    GFM is in the small minority. His ilk is few and far between. And they're dying out.

    Only the severely gullible and weak-minded believe Trump's Big Lie.

    I don't think it's a small minority. Trump rallies are swarming with that underclass of subhumans. They're crawling around every corner of social media. Certain reporters who enjoy interviewing them seem to have no trouble finding them. I believe that there are many non-stupid people who know that they're lying for Trump, but most Trump supporters are the dumbest people in the country. They really don't know what's true and what's not.

    Every way they have used to back the big steal has been a big fail. The recounts proved what we all knew, Trump lost bigly. The election commissions did everything the reds asked and they showed Trump lost. Over 60 courts cases were a waste of time and money.
    You have to be a special kind of stupid to still believe. Trump has conned a few million. They will still believe no matter what happens.
    So far the evidence the conned have shown is ZERO. But they still believe.

    If you don't believe it and you don't speak up, you are as bad as the traitors, and you are unfit for office. Which leaves the GOP bereft of real Americans. They are all treasonous scumbags. They should be voted out of office.

    Of course the majority don’t think it was stolen, in fact, most would prefer Trump would just go away, but as long as they keep quiet, and a major news network keeps supporting the Big Lie, that base drunk on the Kool Aid will keep believing it and it will stay alive
