(10,285 posts)29. Spoonamore is straight up attacking Harris now
How are people so easily led into this? As absolutely-fucking-predicted, the pivot has been made and anger about the election will be wheeled on Harris and other Democratic leaders. Already his words and anti-Democratic rhetoric is being splattered all over DU.
How. Is. It. So. Easy?
When people complain about voters, "Oh, they're taken in by so much misinformation and disinformation cuz they're so dumb!" I want people to look real close at how grifters who make claims - without providing any evidence whatsoever - can get people to fall into these holes this easily.
And then maybe take a moment to think that it isn't always "other people" who fall for nonsense when it's nonsense they want to believe.

It seems to be the same absence of evidence as yesterday and the day before that.

58,000 of my peers and six of my friends, neighbors, and high school classmates died because of lies starting in 1951.

It worked just fine. I suppose if you're invested in conspiracy theories, the sarcasm would be confusing

Exactly. They trained us to defend our elections process no matter what, even though it's been revealed in court cases

What actionable evidence? No, probably not. The candidate has the standing.

The article suggested the results contradicted the exit polls. The exit polls show a small Trump advantage.
