Whether it's Pizzagate, QAnon, the "deep state", school shootings all being staged by "crisis actors", white genocide, George Soros and the Je... Globalists doing nefarious things, the thing with the left, the immigrants, the Je... Globalists, the Muslims, the Media, the Obamas, the Clintons, and the Martian Sex Colonists all working together in some secret volcano lair, etc.
Republicans created them, Republicans promoted them, Republicans ran on them, Republicans chanted "lock em up", Republicans benefited from them, and even if Republicans didn't run on them other Republicans just smiled and nodded when others did it for them, and Republicans didn't and continue to refuse to denounce them.
How much more blood on their hands are Republicans OK with? How much more terror do Republicans want?

(44,986 posts)Nothing says "i'm a tiresome idiot" more bigly than spouting some insane rightwing republican conspiracy theory. Everyone has a neighbor, relative, acquaintance who's gone off the Trump deep end... and we're sick of their bullshit. They're never getting 'their country back' if justice prevails and they should just fucking crawl back to their caves and leave us alone.

(15,751 posts)I think that the conspiracy guy in question is so stupid, a number of republicons would feel embarrassed with such 'cohorts' - some may feel alienated enough to not vote, or vote 'the lesser evil' dem. Case in point, traitortrump is the best thing going next week - for Dems.
