Dinesh D'Souza PO'ed because no one will carry his election fraud myth

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Far-right provocateur Dinesh D’Souza seems to have—at least for the time being—fully nuked his relationship with Fox News.

Over the past two weeks, D’Souza has raged against Fox and rival Newsmax for snubbing his election-denying film, 2,000 Mules, which has been shredded by fact-checkers and news outlets over its “gaping holes” and provably false claims about voter fraud in the 2020 election.

D’Souza took specific aim at Tucker Carlson for allegedly suppressing mentions of his batty flick, going as far as sharing a series of supposed text messages—which he characterized as “highly abusive”—from the Fox host’s executive producer Justin Wells.

Apparently throwing bombs at Fox‘s prized primetime host, a right-wing media kingmaker, may have been unwise: After having appeared on longtime friend Laura Ingraham’s nightly Fox News show at least 15 times this year, D’Souza has all but disappeared.

4. Unfortunately Cinemark theaters will be showing his movie

Far-right conspiracy crank Dinesh D'Souza is back with yet another conspiracy theory to promote, and if you haven't heard much about the Republican propagandist's newest film, it’s because it is extremely, unfathomably stupid. 2000 Mules achieved a level of stupidity so stupid that D'Souza can't even get Fox News to jump in with the usual publicity boost. It's a train wreck.

That status, however, may not prevent the (cough) "film" from coming to a theater near you. Any theater chain still devoted to making money won't likely be touching it, but Judd Legum's Popular Information reports that theater chain Cinemark will be showing the film in at least 169 locations.

That's significant, Legum and reporter Rebecca Crosby explain, because Cinemark is founded and headed by far-right Republican donor Lee Roy Mitchell, who's shelled out donations to Trump, still-indicted Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, Kris Kobach, and—surprise—Dennis Prager, one of the conspiracy weirdos D'Souza leans on in his film to sell, again, the stupidest conspiracy theory D'Souza has yet mustered in a long, stupid career.

Time for me to boycott that chain going forward.

8. In a national NBC poll, claiming tRump won the election averaged very unpopular.

Least popular candidate positions and qualities

A candidate who says Donald Trump won the election for president in 2020: 19% more likely, 54% less likely (-35)

D'Souza misjudged the market for his product.
