They haven’t convinced half of America of anything. Those maniacs were already convinced from day one because they don’t care about what’s true, just what makes them feel emotionally validated.So far, the Republicans have managed to conclusively prove:
1) None of the payments to Hunter were illegal
2) Joe Biden received absolutely no benefits and no payments from Hunter's activities
While convincing half of America the exact opposite on both points through repeated lies.
I really think we look at this the wrong way. It is not Fox News and Republican politicians making the base crazy - the crazy base demands they do this.
