So the next load of Utterly Embarrassing Cringeworthy Boys are getting sent down for their roles in Jan 6th, I can't help thinking that maybe if they didn't have such a shit name...
One thing with all these indictments and the sentencing and so on that's going down at the moment, you get a load of people saying "indicted for questioning an election" or "ten years for breaking a window" or a while back "fired by journalists for being ambushed with a cake" - and I get that people are seeking to play down the charges and make it look disproportionate and unfair and so on... but it really doesn't work and just makes the person saying it look stupid as fuck, to the extent that they just have been unable to grasp what's going on at all... or else they're just lying.
In fact I tend to think that the idea of writing about these things this way and trying to dismiss them in front of the public was probably created fairly high up in MAGA who understood they were just lying, and they are being repeated by everyone who is pro-Trump. I bet they have a gut feeling it's not really true but they haven't grasped the actual truth - so I reckon my assumption that anyone repeating this bullshit is both super stupid and totally dishonest.
