What is it with South Carolina? Specifically South Carolina senators? You well remember the olden times, when Lindsey Graham was great pals with Joe and Jill Biden. And the Bidens and Lindsey were great pals with John McCain. And even Hillary Clinton characterized Lindsey as “funny” “self-effacing” and “good company?” So whatever happened to that guy? Back in the day, there used to be dialogues about alien mind conversion, because Graham had undergone such a profound characterological change that there was no other way to describe it, than to take an analogy from science fiction. And now, behold: Tim Scott is turning into a mindless automaton as well. And over the same issue that both he and Graham were of one mind over, back in the mists of January, 2021.

What is it with the GOP and Trump’s Big Lie? Because just today, George Stefanopoulos, whom Trump loves to disparage by calling him “Slopadopalous” yuck yuck yuck, asked Moses Mike Johnson the same question. And Johnson got pissed. How dare he?
STEPHANOPOULOS: Can you say unequivocally that Joe Biden won the 2020 election and Trump lost?
MIKE JOHNSON: See, this is the game that is always played by mainstream media with mainstream Republicans. It's a gotcha game.
STEPHANOPOULOS: So like Vance, you can't say… pic.twitter.com/0vFnZHi4a3

Oh, yeah, it’s a “gotcha” question. It’s very simple: Are we, as Americans, going to acknowledge that Trump lost the 2020 election or are we going to pretend that he won? Because it’s pretty obvious what the GOP line is.
They are all turning into Stepford Wife-level bots. Every last one of them. And this is why the Republican party will be done, I predict, when Trump loses in November. It’s going to be a time of reckoning and regrouping.
Don’t forget that Lindsey Graham wrote a tweet which is still accessible on Twitter back in 2016. That tweet said, “If we nominate Trump, we will be destroyed…and we will deserve it.” Graham could have taken that down any time. But he doesn’t. He leaves it up on Twitter.
The fact that this is still up is the most passive-aggressive thing ever. Deep down, Lindsey loathes Trump. Hates that he is owned by him. But the tiniest burning ember of 2016 Lindsey that remains compels him to leave this up. Courage of inaction is all he has left of his soul. pic.twitter.com/v25XxWWr9I

“Courage of inaction is all that he has left of his soul.” That’s not just true of the Graham Cracker. That’s true of the GOP. All they can do is mouth the platitudes and say the words that are pro-Trump — while in their hearts, they hate his guts. Such is my belief, in any event. Here’s where both senators were on January 6, 2021. This didn’t last.
That was then. This is now. Watch the Stepford Wives automatons continue to perform. Until their savior can’t save them or himself in November. Then let’s see them turn on him. I predict that they will abandon him in droves when Trump proves — once again — that he’s got no power. That’s he’s used up, done, burned out, finished.
They did it to Hitler in the 40’s. Expect no different from MAGA and the GOP in 2024. Watch.
A man who stands for nothing will fall for anything…to paraphrase Malcolm X
Voltaire said those who can be convinced of absurdities can be convinced to commit atrocities.
We are in a very very dangerous time.
Michael Coen has warned us time and again about trump’s capacity for cruelty…Hitler in America? You better believe it. VOTE!
That Tim Scott deflected on the 2020 election isn’t the big news from his statement. He casually said “Biden/Harris policies have caused American families to lose $1000/month!” That the reporter didn’t turn to the camera and immediately say that was a lie is burying the lede!! No matter how deep into the GTrumpP cult someone is, they can understand that they are NOT losing $1000/month!! For a significant portion of American families, including my own, such a loss would mean I’ve already been evicted from my apartment!! Tossing around lies like that is more important right now than 2020 because people who are doing no worse economically are believing that tossed-around horseshit!! 🤬
The fix is in and johnson is key to stealing the election. I suspect the assassins have been going after the wrong person.
MAYBE, We all hope so…….But don’t hold your breath & PREPARE for the WORSE.
