Even as Romney demanded honesty, Faux "News" and DiaperDon allies were spreading new disinformation
https://www.washingtonpost.com/polit...isinformation/
Quote:
Romney accused Trump of inciting the day’s “insurrection” with complete justification. But even as he did so, the forces loyal to Trump were gearing up for another round of fantasized rationalization.
Over at Fox, a series of interviews, hour after hour, included a remarkable allegation: Maybe the day’s violence was actually a function of antifa, Trump’s favorite left-wing boogeyman. Matthew Gertz, a fellow at Media Matters, documented the slow capillary spread of the theory. It popped up on Lou Dobbs’s show on Fox Business, then was raised by former Alaska governor Sarah Palin on Fox News proper. A Tucker Carlson guest offered it up, as did Trump’s most loyal attack dog, Sean Hannity. All of that happened before Romney spoke, but the theory continued to trickle out on Laura Ingraham’s show, repeatedly, in the following hour.

...and the sad little Trumpkins continue to believe and regurgitate every lie...
