Michigan's Top Republican Calls U.S. Capitol Attack A 'Hoax'

The right isn’t even the party of Trump it is the party of stupid.

The right has allowed Trump and the conspiracy theorists to dictate its every move. Is what it is. The right was not always the party of stupid but it has allowed this to happen.

If it makes you feel any better sd, you and cred are the exception.

But in the same way Chico sees AOC as a nut for wanting a living wage for all Americans, or healthcare that doesn't bankrupt everyone except the rich, we see people like Michigan Senator Mike Shirkey in the same way.

When someone prominent uses his/her platform to endorse absolutely insane conspiracy theories, like Shirkey, or Boebert/MGT, you have two choices. You either condemn it, or you're endorsing it. Even if you're silent on it it's still looked at as endorsing it because you aren't speaking up against it.

What purpose does calling an attack with hundreds of clips of video evidence, cell phone data pinpointing extremists at the Capitol, and people who were there witnessing it, a hoax?

Anyone that went to the capitol, supported people that went, condoned it, talked about it in any positive light, etc. should slap themselves.

I never heard of this guy, he can go fuck himself. This does nothing but make things worse.

I hate hoaxers as a general statement (unless its about the moonlanding, ahh fuck it, I hate myself too).
