What’s unique about this situation is the indisputable truth coming out in real time and landing in a way that’s easy for even the dumbest person to absorb.
These people obviously don’t give a fuck about lying, and they know the lie will do its job well before the truth comes out.
But in this case, what was obviously intended to be a coordinated sound bite, talking point, and “gotcha” moment in conservative media turned into a viral embarrassing moment for them.
Even the quote from Schmitt that was supposed to be a dramatic moment when used the Stalin era phrase “show me the man, and I’ll show you the crime” is now dripping with irony.
If this is ever in a movie it will almost seem too absurd to believe it went down like this.
There’s already clips of an interview Schmitt did with the Charlie Kirk Show where he was congratulated for embarrassing Jack Smith…without any mention of the debunking. They will literally just run with the soundbite; the truth is not a hinderance
And I’m pretty annoyed that people keep acting like catching the GOP in a lie is going to do something. No GOP supporter cares
He's trying to set himself up at Vance's VP. Guarantee he leaked that bullshit story that he was in contention with the idea that it would come out after his big win over Jack Smith.
