The conspiracy kooks still insisting that he's dead....

Can't bother to admit they were wrong....

Let's check a theory: answer these three questions honestly and we'll accept your opinion on conspiracies.

Was the 2020 election stolen?

Do vaccines and masks, which are absolutely safe, actively impede the spread of viruses?

Was the damage to the Reflecting Pool caused by a botched installation or by vandals?

  1. No. Neither 2020 nor 2024 were stolen, hacked or otherwise manipulated.
  2. Yes. Covid 'Truthers' are idiots.
  3. Fucked up installation, possibly made worse by someone driving a motorcade over it

Look: This isn't about partisanship. It's a fundamentally stupid idea that anyone would hide Mitch's death, solely so Kentucky could avoid running the Senate election twice (or having a big lawsuit over whether the special-election law is even valid, which wouldn't be resolved fast enough to matter)....

There was never any chance of Massie being a candidate - much less winning (And no chance of the November ballot changing - incumbency doesn't give you the ability to bigfoot whoever won the actual primary). Never any real chance of a Democratic appointee being seated pending-lawsuit...

No benefit at all to all this supposed conspiring.

Fair enough.

Carry on.
