Summary

Minnesota Republican state Sen. Justin Eichorn, who introduced a bill classifying “Trump Derangement Syndrome” as a mental illness, was arrested for allegedly soliciting sex from a minor.

    I’m certain they will blame this on the deep state and deny he ever did it, no matter what evidence.

      I’m not talking about politicians- I’m talking about all of them. The supporters. The base. The time for winning hearts and minds or “educating” is long past.

      Oh well. These people entered government willingly. They are the deep state.

        I agree, but I’m saying that the MAGAs can’t accept that their cult ever does any wrong. They stormed the capitol themselves and blamed it on AntiFA. They will definitely not condemn this guy, they’ll say it’s fake news and the deep state antiFA boogeymen came for this brave guy.

          That’s why you have to keep asking them questions. Antifa did it? Why’d they get pardoned by Trump? They’ll usually disengage or start hurling insults.
