That so many in the GOP have fallen into #QAnonCult and spew such delusional conspiracy theories is not too surprising. With the election of Obama, GOP politicans/media were willing to say *anything.* Remember FEMA concentration camps? Jade Helm? Agenda 21? Birtherism? There...1
...are STILL GQPrs out there who believe that a Kenyan Muslim served as president and locked up "patriots" in concentration camps while preparing to launch a war on Texas and outlaw cattle and golf courses. That is the crap these people were fed, day in and day out, for years...2
