Reporter takes Lt Gov of Idaho McGeachin to task: "You don't know who Nick Fuentes is but you...

attended a conference with his name on it?"

Brian:
"OK. I guess the question is, because if you've said, 'well I'm only here'..."

McGeachin:
"Again, it's not fair. I mean, the mainstream media, you do this to conservatives all the time, but you don't do it to yourself. That every time, any time there's any kind of affiliation with anybody at any time on any stage that we're all guilty by association."
"And it's not it's not appropriate."

Brian:
"But the association is not a good one. To be associated with people who are anti-Semitic."

McGeachin:
"Stop, stop. Excuse me, excuse me."

Snowflake Repube starts out whining that asking a public official about his public behavior is unfair.

Whines more about asking for an accounting of the truth being "unfair."

Then whines and implies that the questioner asking for the truth is out of line.

Whines some more.

A shabby Republican hatemonger truth dodge.

As usual.
