I'm mindful of the fact "gaslighting" is overused, but as congressional Republicans insist that Trump wasn't responsible for Jan. 6, it's tough to think of a better word. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...
republican "reality spectrum" on Jan 6:
"it was a deep state/ahn-TI-fah false flag operation"
and/or
"these were all patriots and now they're martyrs and political prisoners"
“[T]he idea of trying to pin [Jan. 6] on President Trump’s words, I think falls way, way short.”
Mang, if that's not the mother of all Kinsley gaffes, I don't know what is.
