I'd have to say it once before I could say it again. Fauci and friends created this plague, not Trump. Fauci and friends dictated policy, not Trump.
Trump's responsibility was empowering Fauci and friends.

Our current VP was raising $$$ to bail BLM rioters out of jail before the election... How's that for an insurrection

Your mental gymnastics deserve a gold medal at the Olympics.

I didn't watch Hannity, Jones and Barr when QAnon became 'news' (and still dont), I was a devotee of MSNBC which is where I did hear about QAnon. Moving goal posts is not an Olympic sport.

Photos are all over the place, even children hailing cabs, so are monuments and streets to Nazis like Stephen Bandera. Thats why the photo works

Now thats funny I dont care who you are... Jamie Raskin gives a speech condemning fascism and political violence as his security drags a woman away

Your maga underwear is showing again when you use terms like Typhoid Tony.
And you keep stating that it "escaped a lab" like that is a fact. There is still no actual proof on how it got into this world.

And you are THE ONE that believed the deep fake picture and gleefully posted it thinking it proved something besides how you were suckered by an easy to determine fake.

I came up with Typhoid Tony on my own, but it is unfair to Mary. She didn't invent the disease in a lab, she was just immune and spread it to others. The 'experts' who looked at the virus said it had a feature not found in nature but possible with lab manipulations, ie gain of function. Recognizing narratives is easy when "everybody" is spouting the same lines, the wet market was a narrative to cover for the Wuhan lab. Jon Stewart did a bit on Stephen Colbert about it. Then he handed an award to a Nazi who covered his tattoos for the occasion, Jon being Jewish and all. Oh well, nobody's perfect. I didn't know if the photo was real, the underlying message is. Zelensky is the feckless leader of a Nazi army that mocks him.

Tell us again why none of this is Trump's responsibility.

I think you give way too much credit in calling that weak Photoshop a deep fake ming.

Rep Jamie Raskin was outside the capital giving a speech

"they openly embrace political violence"

No, he wasn't talking about his party's support for black lies murder, those were Jamie's words condemning authoritarianism and Trump as a fascist as Medea Benjamin of Code Pink was dragged away by security

She was standing nearby quietly holding a sign saying Israel is not above the law.

Jamie was upset he had to start over

The GOP field has thinned significantly, Chris Christie is dropping out leaving Trump, Haley, Desantis and Vivek Ramaswamy^$*&#@

Haley is the clear favorite among the neocons. Desantis was their man but he not only faltered but was never fully in their camp. Vivek is looking to inherit Trump's mantle but he actually has more in common with Desantis ideologically.

Haley has taken a solid 2nd behind Trump in New Hampshire and with South Carolina early in the season she could get a decent start before Trump pulls ahead. But what happens if Trump cant or wont run? She could win a 3 way if Vivek and Desantis split Trump's vote. I think in that case if Vivek wasn't beating Desantis he'd drop so the Trump forces support Desantis.

who else was responsible for the research?

[Berzerker]

link? How did all those CIA agents miss that?

[Berzerker]

it works though because Z is the feckless leader of a Nazi army that mocks him to his face
