    Republicans need a new playbook. Simply fabricating lies based on heresay, unvetted ‘sources’ and rumors just doesn’t cut it anymore.

        Was just thinking: sounds awfully like how a false rape accusation fuxks up the life of the accused for shits and giggles. There should be penalties, except that they’d just claim they were just ‘acting on information they received’ and claim due diligence isn’t their responsibility. It’s all bullshit.

      They won’t ever understand that it won’t cut it in court, though. They think the Democrats are weaponizing the court system to try to destroy them, hence the convictions of all the Jan 6 insurrectionists, and the dumpster fire that is Trump’s legal life. And they think it, because they want to and have wanted to do exactly that: use the courts to destroy their opposition. So they don’t understand why when they make this up (which again, they think the Democrats are doing) it doesn’t hold up in court.

      You mean the basis of their entire religion?
