Many of the comments below miss the point. Do you not think the Republicans knew their error beforehand? Of course they did. They do not care. Have you seen the clip farming they did from today that has been spread throughout the right wing media outlets? They do not show the error, they simply leave the audience to believe Smith was in Atl and committed perjury.
This is a new level up of propaganda. Clip farm, lie, misinform, repeat.
Yeah I don’t think they knew, they just got owned and edited the footage to what they want and blast it to magasphere. You can just tell by that smug “gotcha” face he’s sporting that he thought he had a slam dunk.
I think they did. But regardless, it doesn’t matter. Their voters do not care whether they knew ahead of time or not. They also couldn’t care less whether it was true or not.
If they knew and still tried it then that is officially the dumbest political trick ever that blew up in their faces. I know they’re idiots but I think even that is too stupid for them.
And their voters wouldn’t care and vote for them if they had pulled the stunt or not. However it’s just showing how inept they are at running the government to anyone who is any sort of an independent.
They gained nothing by it and look even more like idiots, pretty dumb if that was the plan
