The funny thing is She of the Real Time Fact Checkers lied her ass off the entire time. She lied about the Chinese Covid response, she repeated the Hamas sexual assault allegations that the NYT chose not to print, she either lied about her love of fracking (less likely) or her belief that climate change is an existential threat (more likely)*.
The thing is those lies are all within the Pale of Discourse so they go unchallenged. Trump is such a gift to the democrats because they get to go as far to the right as they want while still keeping their cherished veneer of intelligence and maturity.
*I suppose she could think both and either be a bona-fide threat to humanity or a complete idiot who doesn’t know what’s causing climate change
Yeah I think this article really missed that callout. Yes there’s the legal pedantry that they do to lie without really lying, but then there’s the bigger lie that is the consensus of reality that exists in the political class of the global north. Things that bolster the consensus are facts, things that don’t are lies.

Given her unlimited support for genocide I think she just loves death
