…oh. Oh. Well then. I didn’t know the whole “Hillary VP” rumor was a fucking DRUDGE rumor. That’s all sorts of extra fucking unbelievable then. How the hell are people this fucking hard-on for a hate-on for both Hillary and Dems that they’ll believe Drudge when he regurgitates the same unsubstantiated ratfucking as ever?
It’s barely been a week since McKay Coppins published a colossal red-flag profile of the Trumper disinformation machine, and yet people are willingly circulating unsubstantiated rumors sharted out by Matt Drudge. Seriously, people, stop doing this. Stop helping the ratfuckers. 🤬 https://t.co/OHDTaDka6S

This is worth reminding ourselves:
Democrats generally trust mainstream news sources, which means even pseudo-scandals like tarmac-ghazi become a problem for Dem politicians if the press takes them seriously.
Republicans basically only care about Fox. pic.twitter.com/Z92rUPuZ0b— Matthew Yglesias (@mattyglesias) February 11, 2020
When MSNBC decides Drudge is worth trusting even when he’s obviously fucking not, you have people on our side deciding to believe the dumbest shit. And that’s how Hillary became the Greatest Satan ever basically. We’re still seeing it right now.
Ironically many times from the same goddamn people who shitkick our Dem leaders for being too credulous of Republican colleagues.
