Had to clip this. Someone with better gif-fu might be able to do better, but...

OMFG, the zoom on Katie Britt. That's going to be a meme, if not already. 🤣 🤣
The only way it'd be funnier is if she clutched that cross, too.
Fallout my ass, he'll get re elected because truth is whatever they feel like. Fallout would be getting censured, pressured until they resign, then investigating their activity in office for criminal activity until they run out of money for good lawyers.
No, the fallout was that he was literally being talked about as a VP on the Vance ticket, and that is no longer in discussion.
Yeah they got the soundbite they wanted. Their followers will never see the evidence he was wrong.
The thing that gets me is they haven't followed through on jailing these people they have made their followers believe are criminals. When are the followers gonna wake tf up?
I used with FF + ublock. I have Chrome w/o ublock and trying to watch the clip was a disaster.
Safari with ublockorigin lite and unable to see a video. There is a black box at the top I am guessing is the video frame.
I had to turn off duckduckgo's thing on FF as well. Not sure what else you might have on Safari. I made a gif out of it and put it here. That site is riddled with ads that play interspersed, every second or two. It's absurdly bad. Any ad popping up in situations like that makes me hate the company almost immediately.
Funniest thing I've read all day. Well, except for every random Far Side cartoon. Way to make yourself irrelevant, Mr. not a senator for much longer Schmitt. lol
He. Does. Not. Care.
The sound bite is out there and the MAGATs will eat it up, regardless of how blatant and slanderous a lie it was.
I don't think this went the way he thought it was going to go. He's gone viral, but not the way he wanted. He looks like a complete and utter imbecile
Honestly, I'm not sure.
I don't have the intestinal fortitude to brave Elon's safe space to see, but we know Benny Johnson and other astroturf MAGA repeaters tweeted preemptive false signal boosts about perjury before the confrontation was even over, and bias-reinforcing readers will never watch a 5-minute clip and understand it, or see the same factual reporting we saw. And even with some taking down their "gotcha" posts, they wouldn't in a million years issue a correction or apology. Newsmax and Fox just will quietly not report on it.
I'm guessing it was enough to become more permanent evidence of the deep state for a lot of MAGA people.
Unless somebody's in a position to impose actual consequences, it doesn't matter in the slightest what non-MAGAts think of him.
I will say that Sen. Eric Schmitt (R-Mo.) does accurately represent my old stomping grounds.
Hey now, I feel like the good senator, E. Schmitt should be given a chance to explain himself. {what's that, you say he was given the chance, but declined to explain?} Right, ok, well, he's a little putz who can't even explain when he makes a mistake, nor can he apologize instead falling back on name calling. truly ROTFLOL. What a self own!

This is typical behavior for a malignant narcissist. They're always right, you're always wrong, and if you point out they're wrong somehow they'll turn it around and blame you.
His lackluster, average American reading level response:
“We had information, of course, about him being at a basketball game,” the Missouri Republican told Nexstar affiliate KTVI St. Louis later Tuesday. “The only NBA game going on that night was in Atlanta on Feb. 2 of 2024. His team had talked about that. He answered the question.”
“My job is to ask the questions, and his job is to answer the questions,” he added.
It turns out that the community long found on Reddit and also in the Fediverse is totally wrong.
There ARE some stupid questions.
Men's pro ball. Women's college ball. Surely anyone could make that mistake.
When will the American public reckon with how colossally unintelligent the Republicans are?
It's literally their platform: that "elites" (which by their definition is anyone with any kind of education or expertise in an area) are evil. Meanwhile, rich people are to be worshipped.
This is exactly what Republican government looks and acts like.
They saw Hawks and stopped paying attention. Didn't matter if it was in a different state, played by a different gender, and totally different level. But close enough.
Oh gosh. He faces fallout? Scary...
Hopefully a deathclaw, or at least radscorpions and ghouls.
Oh...he faces Fallout? I misread that.
Yeah, nuclear armageddon tracks.
No worries, it's an easy mistake to make. Youtubers have been swearing up and down he'd see consequences for a decade now. No no, not political consequences. He's clearly turning into a bloated glowing ghoul. But I suspect before he goes feral, he'll be ripped to pieces by mirelurks.
