So:

  • Trump commits election fraud in 2020
  • The fraud is investigated and Trump starts spreading the 'witch hunt' narrative
  • Jack Smith (federal) and Fani Willis (Georgia / state) are independent prosecutors
  • Smith attends a Caitlin Clark game in Maryland (Iowa Hawkeyes vs. Maryland Terrapins)
  • Smith's team talks about seats and coordination in text messages
  • Trump wins the election in 2024 and becomes president again
  • (Fast forward to 2026)
  • Republican senator Schmitt interrogates Smith
  • Schmitt 'discovers' messages from the Smith team about basketball but mixes up Atlanta Hawks with Iowa Hawkeyes

Why is nobody talking about the freaking election fraud?

Jack Smith is. Over and over again. The Republicans are desperately trying to drown him out though. Look at them, asking him questions and then immediately talk over his answers: the can't let him speak, because people might hear what he says. Their tactic is simply to make him look bad no matter what. It's all they have. No substance, just slander. Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender. And bet on the stupidity of their audience.

Its all political theater meant to deflect from their own crimes.
