Amid Jan. 6 testimony, Trump stalwarts jump aboard new conspiracy theories

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

One by one, several of Donald Trump's former top advisers have told a special House committee investigating his role in the Jan. 6 insurrection that they didn't believe his lies about the 2020 election and that the former president knew he lost to Joe Biden.

But instead of convincing Trump's most stalwart supporters, testimony from former Atty. Gen. Bill Barr and Trump's daughter Ivanka about the election and the attack on the U.S. Capitol is prompting many of them to simply reassert their views that the former president was correct in his false claim of victory.

Barr's testimony that Trump was repeatedly told there was no election fraud? He was paid off by a voting machine company, according to one false claim that went viral this week. Ivanka Trump saying she didn't believe her father either? It's all part of Trump's grand plan to confuse his enemies and save America.

The claims again demonstrate how deeply rooted Trump's false narrative about the election has become.

Doubling down on stupid.

1. It demonstrates how desperate they are

There's no underestimating how violently people can react when their worldview is shattered ad they're desperately trying to hang onto their delusions amid the actual truth. They won't admit they're wrong. They'd rather kill the messenger of truth.
