Even Dan Quayle, who has the IQ of a bowl of cherries, has acknowledged that there was literally no way for Mike Pence to somehow magically overturn the election results. So why is the media still pretending that Trump’s dumbass treason plot had any chance of ever working?
Why do I keep harping in this? Because it’s important.
First, the truth matters.
But also: the average American will look at the facts and accept that Trump and his people really were carrying out a treason plot. But they will NOT accept any claims that it “almost worked.”

Average Americans are going to see the laughably moronic nature of this treason plot, the inept way in which it was carried out by complete idiots, and the fact that no one can explain how it could possibly have resulted in Trump magically getting a second term.
And they’re going to say “Trump and his dumbasses were obviously going to fail but it’s still a treason plot so lock them up and to hell with Trump’s political party.”
But if we try to convince them the idiotic plot “almost worked,” which they can see is false, we lose them.

And once average Americans decide we’re being absurdly hyperbolic by claiming that this laughable plot almost worked, we’re going to lose them on all of it. They’ll revert back to their default position of believing both sides are full of it, and they’ll decide not to care.
And if we lose the folks in the middle like this, then we’ll have a very difficult time winning the midterms.
Most liberal activists love to bathe themselves in doomsday hysteria about how we’re all doomed. But average Americans see that for the hyperbole it is, and tune it out.

So if you’re sitting around insisting that a laughable PowerPoint slide show and some costumed Capitol attackers almost magically gave Trump a second term, you’re just blowing smoke up your own asses, for the adrenaline rush. You’re NOT trying to win anything.
Moreover, if you keep (incorrectly) telling the hapless idiot traitors on the other side that they “almost succeeded” in overthrowing the government, you’re just telling them to try it again. Stop emboldening them by cowering to them.
Many of you reading this are saying “wait, these concepts are entirely foreign to me.”
Yeah, because the media & pundits have conditioned you to believe that constantly yelling “the other side is going to win no matter what” is activism. When in fact it’s precisely how you lose.
