DC was to be close to and lead the coup by the liberal deep state to, for instance, sell the russian TFG connection

guys like peter stzrok (sp) (russia related expert) would not have been known if limbaugh/rw radio hadn't been hacked and used by putin to expose them as trump enemies for all day repetition on 1500 radio stations.....

The White House. My BIL is worth millions, is in his 70s, and here is his exact response:

“ I’m out on the boat. He’s been there all along guiding that mental midget to complete fucking up of our country that he started”.

So they must be all watching or seeing the same conspiracy nonsense online.

When Obama announced Biden as his running mate. I remember he slipped up and called him the next president of the United States. It was a trivial error, but it turns out he was just 12 years too early.

The Reagan/Bush years took a lot out of me too. To have Fleetwood Mack at an inaugural ball was a huge breath of fresh air after having "Bedtime for Bonzo" and "Just Say No" around for 8 years, then 4 more of Poppa Bush!

Bill wasn't the best human being in the world, but he was a damn fine president. He married well too. When I saw how the right-wing idiots reacted to Hillary trying to fix healthcare in this country I damn near shit myself.

That's when republicans turned from annoying, cheating, regressive morons into Newt Gingrich led evil, horrifying, shockingly disturbed, soul sucking monsters.

You had to get me started, didn't you.

And I suspect that's one metric that the GOP can't stand. The man is always the superior partner, in their worldview.

I'm surprised they didn't try to do away with a woman's right to vote. They've sure targeted a woman's right to choose. (AND a whole lot more, not just affecting the female demographic!)

when Bush II "won" in 2000, it was the start of Bush I's second and third terms. Even used some of the same people in the Cabinet. Or, the start of Cheney's two terms.

that staged the "Brooks Bros. Riot" in Miami that was the start of the "stop the count" movement.

Baker and friends were Dubya's lawyers, all the way to the Supreme Court.

Yeah, Poppy Bush's contacts and friends paved the way for Baby Bush's "victory".

To this day I wish Al Gore hadn't stopped fighting for it. It's all water under the bridge, but I get sick of always having to watch the water running under the bridge.

as some people really do conspire together to commit crimes or do something underhand or just be mean, these are real & shouldn't be conflated with crazy and it undermines the legitimacy of theorists. I have settled on a different word, nymphoconspiraciacs.

Nymphoconspiraciac

noun

1. Someone who will immediately believe any conspiracy if the narrative comports to their prejudices.

2. Conspiracy theorist.
