Seriously? She's going to get away with that bullshit?

Midnight Writer
(21,719 posts)Like when my wife started smoking meth, and ran off with the biker gang that was dealing to her. She told me it was my fault.
Vinca
(50,237 posts)If she's this dumb and gullible she should find another occupation. Toilet cleaner at Mar-a-Grifto perhaps?
TeamPooka
(24,210 posts)about Obama's citizenship and told how many didn't believe he was a citizen and replied "Who am I to tell them what to believe?"
They did this time and again on this issue and many others.
About Hillary, Benghazi and so many more.
They enabled the bullshit and now they can all drown in it, hopefully.
They made it, they own it, let it kill them off.

(12,265 posts)She is like Trump, she LOVES the attention, even negative attention when she can play the victim. She learned well at the feet of 45. They need to make her irrelevant.

After this I'm hoping somebody throws water on MTG and melts her.
Chainfire
(17,474 posts)Am I one of the ones who "allowed her to believe" things that were untrue? I feel so ashamed......
Now, she has seen the light....Hallelujah! Praise Trump!

(33,264 posts)Or maybe it was your uppercase clone. My space laser deflector has holes in it so I'm confused more easily here lately.

(11,726 posts)We know that pedophilia exists. We know that human trafficking exists. We were made aware that there are powerful people like Jeffery Epstein that were implicated in the procurement of young, likely underage girls for sexual acts. We can know ALL of that is true and STILL have complete incredulity that there is a global cabal of pedophiles lead by Hillary Clinton and the Democratic Party. There is simply NO evidence to support those allegations.
No one who accepts the Q-anon conspiracies as true has the mental capacity to serve in Congress.

(100,043 posts)I mean those death threats and racist memes you liked and moderated on Facebook didn't write themselves.
underpants
(182,632 posts)There was the internet and the google. As you know, those things just DO THINGS.
So clearly she had no control over the situation
Oldem

(16,162 posts)I was allowed to believe...
Does a person who says they were allowed to believe nonsense have the necessary judgment to be in congress?
Is she suggesting there should the thought police, who could stop her from believing something?
That statement in its absurd glory, over and over.
maxsolomon
(33,252 posts)It was oddly phrased because she was referencing things she said in the past that she now knows (or believes) were untrue.
She could have said "I have the right to believe things that aren't true and discuss them with others."
Which she does. You have the right to believe bullshit; it is not a crime.
lostnfound
(16,162 posts)And brags about it.
The GOP has devolved so much as to be unrecognizable.
maxsolomon
(33,252 posts)Flat earthers believe lies, the difference is that they don't foment insurrection over it.
Happy Hoosier
(7,221 posts)It's all stuff that happens to her, as if she had no agency.
maxsolomon
(33,252 posts)She's saying it's her RIGHT to believe lies; she's referencing her past acts before she was elected.
In fact, she IS allowed to believe lies AND discuss them with others. Pretty much everyone does to some degree.
That's what organized religion essentially is, isn't it? Lies the faithful believe and discuss with others?
Well, except for the one you believe in. That one is literally 100% true and anyone who says otherwise is oppressing you.

(32,653 posts)Like cabal, for example. I guess someone else is writing her speeches or something.
And in earlier footage from 2017 or 2018, she couldn't even pronounce "anon" correctly. She called it Q-aynen.
