After the majority of Republicans voted against Veterans, this is what Tim Scott has to say. More senseless bantering about a position the Democrats haven't even taken.

.@SenatorTimScott: "After years, and I do mean years of Democrats touting unpopular defund the police policies, they have finally seen the light. Maybe it's the light on their sinking polling numbers and are now voicing support for funding our men and women in uniform."

For whatever reason, this stuff works. Not just with their idiot base but with indies and some Dems too. We truly live in bizarro world.

(54,405 posts)6. No wonder Republican Senators have so much free time to play golf
They let Fox Noise write all their speeches and memos.

(3,492 posts)8. Why do their lies stick so well with people?
While our truths are dismissed?
Its just puzzling to me.
Many Democrats that I know believe these things to be the case as well. Open borders, defund the police, bad with the economy and so on. Things that are demonstrably false are believed fully, even by people who are on our side.
I really cant wrap my head around it.
