You could poll Republicans and half of them would say Obama totally blew the government’s response to Katrina.
They’re idiots. That’s really all you need to know about them.

About half of Republicans buy into the false narratives that Trump and his Republican allies in Congress peddled that downplay the severity of the Capitol attack earlier this year, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll released Monday.
That’s right, you losers. We steal all the elections, so you might as well not bother to vote.

My space laser will destroy anyone who even thinks about voting GOP, which I will instantly know about because of the mind-control microchips in all the vaccines.

Forests are only located in rural GOP areas. All the more reason for them to not even think about voting. Stay home, losers, or my space laser will burn your homes to the ground.

Half Of GOPers Embrace Myths Trump Pushed Surrounding Capitol Attack
Which goes a long way to proving the point that the average Republican is pretty stupid and that half of them are stupider than that.
“I did not mean that Conservatives are generally stupid; I meant, that stupid persons are generally Conservative. I believe that to be so obvious and undeniable a fact that I hardly think any hon. Gentleman will question it.”
–John Stuart Mill, in a Parliamentary debate with the Conservative MP, John Pakington (May 31, 1866)

This “cognitive dissonance” on the part of Republicans is not knew and goes back, as does most of the modern Republican Party, to Ronald Reagan and was greatly increased by the disastrous presidency of George W Bush. That is for those who remember back to W Bush, most Republicans believed or at least said they believed that Iraq was responsible for 911, was tied to Al Qaeda and that weapons of mass destruction were found in Iraq. None of which was true. Republicans also believed that Clinton was responsible for deficits and that Bush had reduced the deficit when the exact opposite was true.
The real question is do Republicans really believe this, or are they saying they believe it because when it comes to foreign policy and the economy, they really don’t care. Rather, they care about social issues White Nationalism being first and foremost.
Or to put another way, are Republicans dumb or evil? Now of course to some extent the answer is both, but I think it is more evil than dumb and therefore like evil, they lie about what they believe and why they do what they do.

You are in a fine “mood” this morning. Beautiful day? Conspiracy theories are easy to come up with. Is it my imagination or are the numbers believing such increasing? There have always been crazy theories, but they have not usually impacted so much. Question for history I guess.

Idiots or evil, either way, it is sort of depressing to contemplate how many folks are spinning off into La La Land.

Space lasers burning people’s houses to the ground if they think about voting GOP because the mind-control microchips in their vaccines reported them to me is, in fact, funny.
