"Fake Trump supporters".

Let’s dissect that idea from Sen. Ron Johnson! Is it absurd that they would, could or should call Trump supporters “fake”? Absolutely not! Everything Trump touches is “fake“! Everything Trump says is “fake”! The only thing that was not was Trump supporters storming the Capital building on January 6th! To say so otherwise is ludicrous and insane, but it is still the GOPers’ excuse to cover up what their involvement with Trump and his base! They have nothing else to grab onto, so they will continue their pathetic rhetoric and bow down to Trump’s golden ego throne. Thus leading them down a dark path of ill willed conspiracies. If this is their choice of dismiss? They willfully are complicit in Trump’s illegal actions. Saying nothing that doesn’t make sense is who Trump is and who his followers are, “fake”! As long as the right wingers have a platform from this country’s right wingers Congressmen and Senators, like Johnson, Graham, Cruz, Green, Jordan, Gaetz, Nunes and other, this all continues with corrupt lies!

So Ron Johnson, stop with your absurd pathetic lies! It’s a baseless claim and you already proved that by even bringing it up! You and your buddies are completely complicit with Trump and cannot weasel your way out from under Trump’s golden ego throne!

Describing behavior that is usually considered to be out of bounds, over the line, or flat-out illegal, but is okay in this instance because it's being done by a Republican.

I'm a language nut so it drives me crazy when there's something I can't look up in the dictionary so have no idea what someone is saying. Thanks for the assist, kind Lars.
