Remember when FoxNews lost their collective minds because Biden said "this is a big F'n deal" near a hot mic?" If they even try to make a big deal out of this after all the shit they support Trump intentionally saying as the meat of his campaign, they are truly the worst hypocrites.

Someone needs to write a book on how grifting is so common and accepted in right wing culture.

I had an idea for a similar grift myself to be honest, but having Steve Bannon involved definitely brings a lot of scrutiny.

I think the Post Office just dismantled all their boats and threw away the pieces.

I really hope NY or another state brings charges, otherwise they are all getting a pardon. And since they will be pardoned, that will prove that this was all a Deep State hoax getting revenge because of Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Over, no doubt! If you have lied to yourself that much already, getting scammed out of your money (I mean, where is the wall you paid for?) isn't going to break through.

It’s not unusual for fraud victims to be family, friends, clients or other people close to the bad guy, who can’t let go. And yeah, some of them will go to bat for the fraudster (or try to blame someone else), that’s what people do.

Heh.

FWIW, the poll that came out a few days before had the race tied. IIRC, the pollster who had the +19 had some squirrely polls earlier.

I think Kelly’s up by about 6, based on this. https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/po ... e/arizona/
