MSNBC’s O’Donnell: ‘53% of Republicans Fail a Basic Mental Competency Test’ — They Think Trump Won
Breitbart ^ | 05/25/2021 | Pam Key

Posted on 05/26/2021 5:54:51 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell, on Tuesday’s “The Last Word,” said that 53% of Republicans failed “a basic mental competency test question,” which is who is the president of the United States” because they think Donald Trump won the 2020 election.

Discussing new Texas election legislation, Rep. Joaquin Castro (D-TX) said, “It’s very much a naked power grab. Also, if you look at the leadership in Texas, Lawrence, it very much is out of sync with the population of Texas. Texas is an incredibly diverse state, and the Republican leadership in Texas is not. It’s very sad to say, but I think it’s true that it is a lot of Republican White males that are trying to hang on to power. They’re trying to do everything that they can in a diversifying state to do that.”

Zho Xiden has not yet been proclaimed to be the “Smartest Man In The World” by the Commies. I wonder what’s holding them back. They always tout that when their boy is in OUR White House.

Exactly!

It’s not that Biden ‘won’ the election by vote count. Most people aren’t disputing that.

Now, we can have a reasonable discussion as to whether the votes were valid or not, but ‘votes is votes’.

Maybe Trump lost, but hiring hundreds of lawyers to stop the recount and any further investigations, tells us, maybe there is something there, which was hidden from view in the so called transparent election. I can’t wait for the Trump Rallies to start up again, the sooner the better. (We know how its going to upset the MSM and ignite the peaceful (s/) protests.} Trump will draw the crowds and point out the failures, and drive the MSM bat $#!t crazy. Politics will be entertaining again. Remember 2020, Trump lied, people died and Epstein committed suicide.

I wouldn't even know what liberal fools think unless somebody posts that drivel on FR. And what's seen can't be unseen.

Make it stop.

Dear Lawrence O'Donnell:

Grade the RATS "mental competence" by asking them who won the 2000 election.

Who is watching MSNBC?

Nobody

Their ratings are horrible. Especially in the summer. TV ratings in general continue to drop.
The only thing I have watched on network TV in the last month is the PGA golf from SC on Saturday and Sunday.

“I don’t believe Trump won. Biden won.”

Biden won the same way Lance Armstrong won.

He is right if "Mental Competency" is measured as adherence to Leftwing dogma. Just as the term "Racism" is now measured in terms of rejection of Leftwing dogma.

For Leftists the concept of "true" is really just the same as what is consistent with their narrative. And the concept of rationality is really just inventing and rationalizing some way to make their narrative seem plausible.

Thus even though it is not plausible that the midnight miracle spikes of Biden votes that overturned the Trump's victory from hyper partisan Democrat vote counters working unobserved in the middle of the night were legitimate. The goal of the Leftist is to make them seem legitimate anyway possible. To do so is rationality itself for the Leftist.

The only course of action in making this Leftist doctrine plausible is to obfuscate, lie, and gas light, and especially persecute and demonize those that approach the question objectively.

So of course, it becomes their truth that honest people are mentally incompetent. Just as it becomes their truth that color-blind people are horribly racist.

Reminds me of Solzhenitsyn describing how during Stalinist Russia, if you failed to agree, from your inner being, with Communist party decrees, you were deemed mentally unbalanced and needed to be sent to re-education camps.

“I don’t believe Trump won. Biden won.”

“The election results are statistically absurd.”

What is truly absurd is that you can believe such contradictory conclusions at the same time. Straight out of Orwell’s description of doublethink.

I think where we differ is in our definition of “won”. When I say Biden “won”, I mean the results were certified and he was declared the winner. He won.

I also believe he “won” through cheating. You and I are actually on the same page here.

Enemdia’s Lawrence O’Donnell is projecting his own incompetency.

It’s only an insult if the talker has credibility and isn’t projecting.

that’s interesting. what’s the percentage of Democrats who think that Clinton won the 2016 election, I’m betting it’s way over 53 percent.

We also thought the Wuhan virus dropped from a lab - intentionally or not...

And not from bat soup staring bats from 400 miles away from Wuhan.
