RNC's Contempt for Reality

Post by _Icarus »

On night two at the Circus of Falsehoods, the RNC was forced to pull a speaker from the lineup because she posted some anti-Semitic stuff on Twitter. ("Only the best people"!)

Also tonight, Abby Johnson - who became an instant Right Wing celebrity for lying about abortion - said she feels like her black son should be profiled by the police because he's statistically more likely to be a criminal than her two white kids. What a horrible thing for a mother to say! She also tweeted recently that she supports taking away a woman's right to vote. Yes, she really said this. “In a Godly household, the husband would get the final say!”

Last night a couple recently charged with felonies spoke at the RNC. They became overnight celebrities for the GOP simply because they were eager to break the law just to intimidate peaceful black protesters. What better way to tell black Americans you're not racist than to idolize these idiots?

Also last night, Kimberly Guilfoyle, the FOX News host who is being paid $15,000/month by the Trump campaign to date the President's son, was somehow chosen to speak. She began screaming a political tirade that was reminiscent of state media from North Korea and she made an idiotic remark about being a first generation immigrant, which isn't true, because Puerto Ricans aren't immigrants, they're US Citizens. How can she not know this?

Tiffany Trump had nothing to say about her relationship with her dad or what he's like as a father. All she did was repeat Trump's paranoid conspiracy theories about the media and the opposition.

I'm beginning to think that all of this idiocy and lying is intentional because Donald Trump insists on speaking each night and the only way to make him look like the smartest guy in the room is if everyone else is asked to "out stupid" him.

Mike Pompeo speaks from Jerusalem. On the same day, Mary Ann Mendoza, a member of the Trump campaign advisory board, was scheduled to speak. Her speech was cancelled after she posted the follow message this morning:

The link is to a QAnon conspiracy theory. The Rothschilds—a famous Jewish banking family from Germany—created a plot to terrorize non-Jewish “goyim,” with purported details of their scheme that included plans to “make the goyim destroy each other” and “rob the goyim of their landed properties.”

The juxtaposition of those two elements, a speech from Jerusalem with QAnon's retelling of The Protocols of Zion is forking weird.

Kimberly Guilfoyle is the heir apparent to Martha Mitchell.

The Trump strategy is to stir up hatred. Sometimes Trump goes off script, but he is listening to his Kremlin handlers on this one.

It only appears that way. It's an emergent property that comes out of the formation of so many stupid people under a common BS cause. It's actually comforting to think it's intentional, but it's not. They aren't even that smart.

If they could appear smarter, you bet your life they'd do it.

This is a fun little video: it comes with a challenge...

Which one is real and which one is fake?

It's a serious mystery to me why these Trumpstopian people appeal to anyone. They're fu-cking freaks.
