Radicalized is a better term IMO.

Perhaps, but after looking at Jordan Klepper interviewing all sorts of devoted MAGAts, "stupid" is back in the running.

He does have a knack for finding the most idiotic ones. When you've been suitably radicalized higher brain function atrophies.

His Bobness had a song about people like these MAGAts:

Idiot wind
Blowing every time you move your mouth
Blowing down the back roads headin' south
Idiot wind
Blowing every time you move your teeth
You're an idiot, babe
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe

I always look for the financial angle in most controversies and here Trump and his "Deniers" hit a mother lode and they kept mining for lies to propagate.

And those who fell for it continue to pay for the privilege of getting fleeced are dumb, stupid or both in my opinion. A fool and his money are soon parted also applies.

If I draw my room darkening blinds and tell you that its night and you believe me, what do I infer?

This election fraud claim by Trump and his cronies is simply a financial scam at which he is an expert.

A New York State judge has just ordered Donald Trump to pay The New York Times $392,638 to reimburse their legal fees in a frivolous lawsuit Trump brought against the newspaper.

So, the NYT fake news is real, eh?

In what could be the final death blow to his rags to riches story, Mike Lindell took to his internet channel 'Lindell TV' to announce that Fox News has cancelled MyPillow.

So sad. LOL.

I wouldn't be surprised for "dark money" funding to keep him going since he does fulfil a purpose.

Meeting with reporters Friday, Ron DeSantis blurted out something every Republican politician knows, but never says: Conservative media does not hold Republicans accountable. “He’s got basically a Praetorian Guard of the conservative media — Fox News, the web sites, all the stuff — they just don’t hold him accountable because they’re worried about losing viewers,” he said of Donald Trump. “And they don’t want to have their ratings go down.”...

One unmentioned irony is that a large chunk of this very same conservative-media apparatus used to work for DeSantis. After January 6, when Republicans assumed Trump was radioactive, conservative media set out to wean the base off Trump and get them hooked on DeSantis. “We want to make Trump a nonperson,” Rupert Murdoch wrote to a colleague. “We see [DeSantis] as the future of the party.”...

And so last summer, Fox News and the rest of the conservative media gave up on DeSantis and resumed promoting Trump. The reason is exactly as DeSantis said: They didn’t want to alienate their audience and lose market share by telling the audience anything bad about its hero.

Meatball was just fine when Faux Newz was blowing smoke up his ass. Now that he's roadkill, he's pissed that they've returned to shilling for Der Trumpenfuhrer.
