    I knew it was bad when the general consensus on the sycophantic subreddit r/conservative also held the opinion that these people should be held accountable. How terrible do you have to be to piss off your own loyalists? This timeline does not even feel real sometimes

      The conservatives themselves lag behind on real news. It takes a few days for their leaders to unite around their own narrative and to change the cycle. Just wait, the peons will start agreeing that it’s fake news shortly. Just like Russian interference and the perfect Ukraine call.

      Eh.

      They can SAY it’s unacceptable and someone should be held accountable.

      But they won’t hold anyone with an “R” next to their name accountable at the polls. Or in any other significant way.
