      It’s the next step in the narcissist prayer.

      Next week they’ll blame it on someone else, but you need bear with them; they’re a little slow.

    With all these Republicans ADMITTING they Lied to their Supporters it’s a GOOD THING that LYING ISNT Against the Bible and that their Supporters are KNOWN for Doing Their Own Research!

      It probably doesn’t matter to their supporters, if anything it makes their supporters trust them more. Many Republicans are of the belief that all politicians lie, so they can rationalize this as “at least my guys are coming clean about it, the other guys are lying and not confessing.” And other people probably just don’t care that much, they believe in the policies of the Republican party and “at least they’re lying for what I believe in.”

    It feels like someone recently has leverage over the republicans and they are being forced to humiliate themselves publicly, one by one. Almost like they each woke up in compromising positions one morning, disoriented and frightened, looked at their TV and a video started playing giving them instructions on some horrible thing they had to do to themselves, or else face more severe consequences…

    Some sort of sick, twisted… game?

    Perjury Traitor Greed: Lies

    Fucking rawstory for fuck’s sake: “Shared false information”

  • We were all worried about AI being a leading cause of misinformation, but it turns out the GOP still has at least one election cycle left in them.

    I think the new GOP tactic is to admit guilt to seem more relatable and to excuse their past craziness. MTG is trying to clean herself up for a presidential run

      I had a similar impression she’s been keeping a lower profile for awhile. I don’t keep up with her apart from headlines, but until last week she’d seemed quieter.

      You’re probably right, but damn I wish she’d just go back to heckling bartenders.
