View MoreHaving watched what the Dems put forth in this latest hoax impeachment failure, they essentially defined themselves, and by association their party, as nothing more than conspiracy theorists. They asserted all kinds of things, basically all about what they THEORIZED were Trump's motives, what was in his heart and mind. But if you're going to charge somebody with something based on what he said (it'd be REALLY hard to charge somebody based on what you thought they were thinking), he damn well better have actually said it. Which he clearly did not in this case. With all the Dem video of the rioters marching and breaching the Capitol all the while shouting despicable things like, "Break that window," "Smash in that door," "Burn it down," if one of those actual voices had BEEN Donald Trump, he would indeed have been guilty as charged. But not only were none of those his voice, he wasn't actually there for any of those video clips, rendering them completely moot in terms of the charges. Even the Dem ALLEGATIONS were nothing more than conspiracy theories... they just kept harping on what THEY (the Dems) said they "knew" Trump wanted. That kind of a case will never get you very far in convicting anybody of anything, if you're basing your charges on what you think is in somebody else's head. But when it came down to what Trump actually said, as they say, there was no there there.
I was only semi-flabbergasted tonight as I listened to a Biden speech from last week, where he exposed himself to be kind of a siren for that same kind of conspiracy theory construction in attacking the other side. In this speech, he said the whole riot was based on a bunch of white supremacists!!! I would surmise that you have to get pretty far out on the conspiracy theory branch, even if a Democrat, to make that assertion. The closest thing you could probably say about why the rioters were rioting was that, at least a large portion of them, believed the election had not been conducted fairly. That has absolutely NOTHING to do with white supremacy, and for Biden to make that assertion means he's so far gone, he can't even follow or put together a "sensible" (if there is such a thing) conspiracy theory. At least in my mind, voter fraud and white supremacy are not exactly synonyms. But in Joe's mind, they are... which says quite a bit about Joe's mind.
