Russiagate is quite possibly the liberal establishment's greatest propaganda coup of my lifetime.

    it was in 2017, but only died-in-the-wool true believing libs still fall for it in 2025. It really only limped on because of the SMO in 2022, otherwise it would have completely fizzled out

    I don't think a lot of libs truly believe the election was stolen in 2016, but a lot still "believe Russiagate" to the extent they can dismiss stuff they don't want to argue as perfidious foreign influence.
