I wish I still had contact with leftist coworkers in Colorado who, in 2016, were bouncing off the walls about Trump and Russia Collusion. Of course I knew early on that it was a dirty trick by Hillary and I even knew the dollar amounts funneled by Hillary, the DNC account she controlled and by Obama through Perkins Coie to Steele. But trying to tell leftists anything is pretty much wasted energy. I wonder if they feel foolish now or if they still believe it.
They probably still believe it. Most lefties erect active barriers to seeing inconvenient truths.
Some that I’ve interacted with for years still believe in Trump Russian collusion.
They are impervious to truth.
“But trying to tell leftists anything is pretty much wasted energy. I wonder if they feel foolish now or if they still believe it”.
They will never admit they were wrong. They never do.
They are busy reinforcing their echo chamber to rationalize their positions.
My $$ bet.
“Just another unrelated coincidence” that the Russian hoax was in circulation BEFORE the 2016 election. Timing, in politics, is everything, and it was trotted out just a little too late to have a measurable effect on the turnout, which had reflected the growth of the MAGA movement to well beyond just a few diehard America Firsters.
Thoughtful US citizens were at the end of their rope, so far as “affinity” candidates for the office were being served up, with pre-designated winners and losers. Donald J. Trump was so far outside the mold that he had to be an improvement over anybody else in the running. Herself lost that election, fair and square, it was not “stolen” or “bought”.
With all this knowledge now about what really happened with the elections, I think what most Americans really want to know is ...when is someone going to get the needed prosecution for this?
