The best I can say about it is that it sounds like a game of Telephone, each person repeating the original message with inaccuracies so that by the time it gets to the end of the line, it's hilariously garbled.

It's also a shining example of the Dunning-Kruger effect, people who have slightly mastered Google fancying themselves to be experts.

So of course Dumdum bought into the fakery and over 550,000 Americans are dead of his ignorance and hubris and the insane idea that he needed to be at war against Democrats and undo everything they had done.

What a refreshing change - an island of reality diverting a mighty river of paranoid bullshit.

He was making assertions about how CV-19 started in the Wuhan lab. When pressed for evidence, he cited the Redfield interview. So he has all the "science-based" evidence he needs.

We're seeing the coordinated development and deployment of a Republican talking point here.
