Wag the Dog was a case where - in trying to generically attack a white male Republican-looking Presidential figure - Hollywood accidentally gave away major Democrat game plans. :)

At some point the coincidences seem beyond belief.

It's called evidence.

A crazed criminal idiot loser living in his van making bombs that don't work? No way!

The Post Office, the place where dedicated observant professionals gather to put in a hard days work forget to cancel some stamps? No Way!

And yet if he had Bernie stickers on his crazy van and wore a Bernie hat you would completely accept the evidence.

You just can't accept that someone with a MAGA hat and stickers can't be a crazed criminal idiot loser out of the millions that voted for him.

You just can't accept that someone wearing a MAGA hat and has some stickers can't be a crazy criminal idiot so you have to concoct conspiracy theories.

Like the Russian dossier, like Mrs Ford's testimony, like Hillary's saintly public service....

The Democrats have never lied to the American people.

Never, not Once!

They have never tried to sway elections, they have never stolen ballots, never tried to get illegals to vote, never tried to use dead vote. The Dems are totally virtuous.

Being suspicious of this event, especially so close to the election and without cause, ( because the Democrats are so innocent) makes you people look silly..../s

That movie really opened my eyes. The fact that it came out during the Clinton years cemented it.

The past couple of years have been real-life Wag the Dog.

I approximated from memory.

In post 30 below I retrieved that actual scene.

It's called evidence.

The democrats have established a behavioral pattern.

You just can't accept that someone with a MAGA hat and stickers can't be a crazed criminal idiot loser out of the millions that voted for him.

Red herring.

It’s the timing that makes it look so orchestrated

I said from day one, it will be a lone nutcase.

It usally is.

Is the media milking it for all it’s worth? Yup.

Does it surprise me? Nope.

My only curiosity in the matter was how much evidence was produced for public consumption so quickly.

Normally none of these details, means or methods would be released during an investigation.

Any details released would be done in a way to goad the suspect into revealing himself, and maybe that is just what they did, but this guy might as well had a red neon sign and search lights on top of the MAGA Mobile declaring “I DONE IT!!”

A lunatic idiot living in a van who can't get people to pay attention to his crazy opinions and ideas decide one day to start mailing bombs so people will pay attention to him doesn't make sense?

No it doesn't if you intend to harm others. Make no mistake the devices may have been duds but there are traumatized people at the reception point.
