OMG, the RW has completley lost it's fuking mind.

Yeah sure, the teabag-festooned tri-corn hats & facial band-aids were a sign, the Sarah Palin worship, the election of DJT, for sure, but for some reason their reaction to this story strikes me as even more troublesome:

On Twitter, theresponse is a rabid frenzy claiming that this is proof of a massive conspiracy led by, you guessed it, Soros, Obama, and the Clintons. I didn't save the thread. Maybe I just happened upon the worst of it, but reading it reconfirmed my despair at the loss of reason, the utter and complete brainwashing of the Cult of Trump, and the pointlessness of ever trying to reach those people with facts or logic.

So depressing.

George, Bill, and Hillary (and Nancy Pelosi) are gone, Obama will be the only one they'll blame!

Beyond the grave, beyond all reason or reality, all blame for everything will forever be laid at the feet of those three (or 4) entities.

He was a gun dealer, worked with the DoD, or the "Deep State" in some way or another. Honestly, they grabbed hold of that story and took off into crazy land where Hillary is selling plutonium from her basement. I don't know. I just know it's all the evil doings of Soros, Obama, the Clintons.

Just so disturbing that people could believe this kind of crap.

Here's a another story on the new info they are reacting to:

They seemed like real RWers discussing this. And I didn't respond or link to them. I'm just saying...

I saw the article posted, expecting some reasonable reactions and insight from the kind of people I follow, and instead found a thread of lunatics freaking out about how this is all coming to a head and very soon Soros, Obama, and the Clintons will be in jail!!!!!!!!!!

Not that I believe them. It was just their rabid hatred and certitude that all the BS the RW media is feeding them is true.

Not sure why this particular example of that got to me so much, but it did.
