This would be hilarious if it hadn't come from this dangerous, hateful freak! I'd love to hear magits and T***p voters name 3 great things making this a "golden age"! I've asked a few & they say - "he's knocking it out of the park!" When asked "how?" they cant answer! This is all part of the con!

He has never been a leader...
chrisvandalay.bsky.social (@chrisvandalay.bsky.social) reply parent
This is a perfect example of his approach! Spout out off some crazy "factoids" using scientific words to make himself sound credible , with no actual substantiation! He'll say: "well the data we were shown...". What data? Who showed it to you? When called on it - he denies/minimizes what he said.

Just like we saw what happened on J6 - we also saw his fascist salute! And no amount of attempted gaslighting changes that... Also has anyone asked him to comment on this? What's his answer??

Look at his face while he answers King. Eventually the rot from the lies and hypocrisy growing inside him will overtake him.
