Sometimes I think comments like his are just to give the cult their talking points. Either that or Mr. Johnson's idea of an armed insurrection is wildly different than everyone else's.

Quote:
Later in the interview, Johnson recalled “sitting back in my office watching video of the ‘armed insurrectionists’ staying within the lines inside the Capitol.”

“They’re not even venturing outside of the roped areas. I’m seeing a bunch of people milling about,” he claimed.
I guess Speaker Pelosi's office was "inside the lines"? I guess the guy who was sitting in the seat Mike Pence was sitting in before the Secret Service whisked him away just thought it was part of the tour? Anyone who believes a thing that comes out of Mr. Johnson's mouth is at best willfully ignorant.

Remember Orwell's doublethink. The will make up or accept contradictory things if necessary. This requires cultivation of actual dysfunction in the cognitive centers, however, and the damage, I suspect, can be serious and long lasting.

Propaganda without accountability works.
Trump is the end game of the Limbotization of the willingly gullible targets of toxic populist demagoguery.

Karma at work:
Limbaugh being slowly suffocated by his own lungs.
A fitting award for his years of poisoning the well of public discourse.
