Yeah, if this were a liberal pundit on a Republican candidate, there would be a huff of conspiracy from the left. As opposed to what we see from Huffington Post, a headline crashing any conspiracy mongering from Tucker Carlson.
And I suppose the Trump variant for first obnoxious supporter is worse than tne Kimmel noxious bit, voter intimidation versus an anonymous normalizing of a shunning,
And we see stories of the typical sign stealings…
but… And right now I am having trouble finding the story of an antifa activist pretending to be a jackass proud boy Trumpist… I will run into it eventually…
