    hot take but I'd say its %90 believing their own bullshit. I think about everyone Ive met over 60 in America and how their brain has little swiss cheese holes in it, I dont think Nancy is so different.

      “Ha ha today I think I’ll spread disinfo about Russian meddling to advance my political agenda”

      time passes

      “Holy shit I heard Russia is meddling in our politics!”

        I don't even think they were intentionally spreading the disinfo, plenty of them genuinely believed that Russia significantly altered the 2016 election results in some capacity, ignoring the litany of evidence otherwise

        Oh no, they purged some names from some ballots for primary voting iirc

        Oh no, they put out some misleading tweets that were drops in an ocean

        But some libs treat those things like they were on the level of a militarized coup

          Yea for rank and file libs and libs on Twitter for sure, I meant like pelosi and other higher up ghouls who I assume are more likely to know better. Mostly just having a go at her for being yet another geriatric life appointment ghoul tho lol
