A hypothetical...
Jan. 6th, 2022 02:30 pmSeriously, pause for a moment and imagine that Hillary Clinton had won in 2016. Imagine if, on January 6, 2021, hundreds of Hillary supporters had stormed the Capitol to try to overturn the rightful election of, for example, Sarah Palin.

Palin, in this imaginary scenario, had been the quirky Vice President under President John McCain from 2008 to 2016 and was elected on November 3, 2020 as the new POTUS (despite there having been a lot of far better GOP candidates available).

Imagine if, a year later, a year into the presidency of hypothetical 46th POTUS Palin, Hillary Clinton was still whining about how the election was fraudulent and how she should still be POTUS instead. Imagine if the Democrats were still supporting Hillary in this no matter what.

Imagine if people were still trying to absurdly claim that "It was actually stealth neo-Nazis and white supremacists who were *really* the ones storming the Capitol, pretending to be Hillary supporters, as a false flag to make President Clinton look bad!"

Imagine if Joe Lieberman, widely reviled former Vice President under POTUS Al Gore from 2000-2008 in this scenario, showed up at the Capitol on the anniversary of the Jan 6, 2021 insurrection by Clinton supporters to say how disappointed he was in the current Dem leadership.

Context for that last tweet there, since this is the first time I've mentioned it here.
When goddamn *Dick Cheney,* of all people, is telling the GQP that they're bad, that's saying something. https://t.co/SSKovVSEPo
