In interviews with Vanity Fair, Susie Wiles, the White House chief of staff, said President Trump “has an alcoholic’s personality,” called JD Vance a “conspiracy theorist” and concluded that Pam Bondi “completely whiffed” the early handling of the Epstein files.

    called JD Vance a “conspiracy theorist”

    I’ll say. The guy is still going with the “Biden gave us such a bad economy, and it will take a lot of work to fix it” bullshit narrative. That kind of conspiracy theory is truly unhinged; we could all see the data from last year and things were headed in the right direction on so many things - until these asshats took the helm.

      My guy, that’s not a conspiracy theory, because he doesn’t actually believe it. It’s called “lying”.

      The problem is that the target audience of this gaslighting will never bother to look at last year’s data, and will just parrot whatever talking points are vomited up.

        Yep. Even if they lived through both and experienced both and this is not even their first rodeo on the ups and downs of the economy. If Donvict or a proxy says something, by golly, it’s true, even if part of them knows otherwise. Gas is now fifty cents a gallon and it was 5 dollars a gallon just last year! Taco is creating millions of jobs here when there were no jobs to be had just last year! We (well, at least white xtian cishet males) are going to deport and tariff our way to all be billionaires!

        You could almost forgive someone too young and naive to know better; it’s the people who have been around a while and seemingly have learned sweet fuckall in the process that are the most infuriating.
