I believe there are zero GOP senators who believe the Big Lie

Even the dumbest dumbfucks among them.

They do and say what they do and say to stay on the good side of the crazies they invited in for votes and power. But now they fear them too.

Look into his eyes. You can see all the way to the inside of the back of his head. There's nothing there at all. I don't think he's faking like most of the rest of them; he really is a profoundly stupid person.

There have been leaks that show he doesn't. I remember reading about it at the end of Trump's term. He is milking the lie for political purposes.

In a fight to the death with Ron Johnson for the title of dumbest member of the Senate.

I have my doubts.
Science deniers
Covid deniers
Flat Earthers
Global heating deniers
Creationists
Anti vaxxers
Trickle down economics believers
Pro Fascists
Q anonsense

I could go on, but you get the idea...

Plus the high school drop out from Colorado is too fucking stupid to think critically, if she's able to think at all.

Maybe a handful of them will speak out against it but the majority of them will stay min so as not to piss off the cult leader or his zombie followers.

Unless and until they act otherwise, it doesn't matter.

Hey, maybe hitler didn't really hate Jews, it was all just a cynical thing he did to gain power. What difference would that make?

What they do matters.

Louie "Can the National Forest Service change the moon's orbit?" Gohmert is quite possibly that stupid.

He might still know it's a lie, but he's also stupid enough to fall for it too.
