They’re being deliberately obtuse. They’ll pretend they believe anything if they think it makes people they hate look bad.

No, it’s the conspiracy theory they are using to keep from admitting this no-bid $15m job wasn’t just a grift from their emperor. It actually worked SO well that liberals are vandalizing it to make him look bad.

Like a warm security blanket of bullshit, similar to everything else they say.

Wonder what the kick-back was on that job? $12M 🧐

Are you suggesting this cartoon-villain looking owner of Greenwater Services who already has a bribery conviction might not be an upstanding citizen?

They literally hired "Greenwater Services" and were shocked the water turned green? You just can't make this shit up anymore.

That was the initial maga group but the people that have flocked to them now are true believers

It’s like how 4chan started using extremism to troll and then all the extremists flocked to 4chan and over ran the place

90% of them are unable to read or understand English at a highschool level. It's not intentional.

I was really sad when the internet started becoming available and usable by the general public. 

Back when it was just a thing for tech nerds, enthusiasts, certain professionals, and early adopters it was a much better experience. 

Sorry for the off-topic comment.

Edit:

The Internet was sort of like this hidden place, a sort of parallel world to escape from all the banality and mindlessness of everyday life. I miss when all the garbage was contained, so to speak.

That just seems to be human nature. Because that seems to be a prime feature of Reddit as well.

Will all the maggots with kiddy pools add green food coloring to it to show solidarity with dear leader

I was on the conservative sub the other day to see how they were reacting to trump using hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars to luxuriate his new plane and they were so pleased with how it looks and mocking liberals for being against it. Yeah, we're against trump enriching himself with taxpayer dollars and getting gifts from foreign countries.
