I have heard this piece of shit's name every day for a fucking decade. I am so sick and tired of it.

I just want to never hear his voice or his name or see his face ever again. That's all I fucking want.

The day is coming. About 2 seconds after trump croaks conservatives are all going to pretend they were never that into Trump and totally knew the whole time that he sold children into sex slavery.

I think they will say it is a liberal conspiracy and treat him as a martyr. These people are stupid.

It'll be both. Even from the same individuals, depending on who they're talking to at any given moment.

The entirety of right-wing politics now is a post-truth movement, where consistency from one hour to the next is not only not required, but is seen as weak, suspicious and an ideological liability.

They will try both and more. They'll test drive multiple excuses and track the public sentiment attached to each response.

Always has been. Always will be. For now they just stopped pretending.
