‘Golden Calf’ Trends After Massive Statue of Trump is Wheeled into CPAC
Ahead of Trump’s keynote speech at the CPAC conference this weekend, two staffers wheeled in a massive golden statue of the insurrectionist former president, and everyone was thinking about the idol created by Israelities when Moses went up to Mt. Sinai.
Wrote one Twitter user with more following suit: “Republicans wheel in the golden calf as they prepare to wander the electoral desert for 40 years.”

The republicans have totally lost it.
It’s even carrying a magic wand.
It's real alright, hilarious.
They really have lost their minds.
With the oversized head and the short fat legs it's sure to be nicknamed stumpy. It'll have them rolling in the aisles.
It has to be a trick played on them
Is that a cement block on his feet?
Maybe they plan to drown him!
Now even repeaters's favourite right-wing mouthpiece has had enough of Trump's lies:
https://dailycaller.com/2021/02/28/t...d-cpac-speech/Trump Repeats False Claims That 2020 Election Was ‘Rigged’ During CPAC Speech
Former President Donald Trump repeated false claims that the 2020 presidential election was “rigged” and that he really won during his Sunday speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC).
Trump claimed that while “somebody who came in second in New Hampshire, or first in Iowa, and that was the end, and they became famous for the rest of their lives, we won the election twice.”
Trump finished second in the 2016 Iowa Republican caucus to Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, and came in first in that year’s New Hampshire primary.
He further suggested that President Joe Biden’s failures to address the immigration crisis “should be reason enough for Democrats to suffer withering losses in the midterms and to lose the White House decisively four years from now. Actually, as you know, they just lost the White House. But who knows, I may even decide to beat them for a third time.”
The former president’s false claims that he won the 2020 election were greeted with applause and chants of “USA, USA” from the CPAC crowd.
Trump then repeated a litany of since-debunked conspiracy theories about the 2020 presidential election.
“The reality is, you cannot have a situation where ballots are indiscriminately pouring in from all over the country. Tens of millions of ballots, where are they coming from? They’re coming all over the place. Where illegal aliens and dead people are voting, and many other horrible things are happening, that are too voluminous to even mention.”
Despite social media claims to the contrary, illegal immigrants in states like California and Illinois were not allowed to register to vote. MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, who is currently facing a $1.3 billion lawsuit from voting machine company Dominion Voting Systems over his own election fraud claims, similarly stated that more than 10,000 dead people voted in Georgia. That claim has also been debunked.
“It’s being studied, and the level of dishonesty is not to be believed … This election was rigged, and the Supreme Court and other courts didn’t want to do anything about it,” Trump said.
The CPAC crowd chanted, “We won, we won” in response to the former president’s claims.
“We did,” Trump responded. “The Supreme Court didn’t have the courage to act, but instead used ‘process’ and ‘lack of standing.'”
“We had almost 20 states go into the Supreme Court so that we didn’t have a standing problem. They rejected it. They should be ashamed of themselves for what they’ve done to our country,” he added. “They didn’t have the guts or the courage to make the right decision. They didn’t want to talk about it.”
The Supreme Court threw out a lawsuit filed by Texas against Pennsylvania, Michigan, Georgia and Wisconsin due to lack of standing. The suit alleged that those states illegally changed their voting laws in the run-up to the presidential election in ways that harmed ballot integrity. However, Texas lost the case because it did not provide a “judicially cognizable interest in the manner in which another State conducts its elections.”
Trump is reportedly under investigation in the state of Georgia for a phone call in which he requested that Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger “find 11,780 votes.” Trump was the first Republican to lose Georgia since George H.W. Bush in 1992.
It simply boggles the mind how so many people can be so utterly deranged
This is a pointless thread. He won an election, did his thing for four years, millions of jaws regularly hit the ground, and now he's history. That's how politics work. He has no way back especially as he has ruled out starting a new party.
A very sad hoorah. Ugly too. Ten minutes of the speech was more than enough for me. Nothing forward looking about this folks. Very, very sad.
...whilst there are still news about recounting, rechecking.... Are they all fake? (the news?)
e.g. in Arizona Senate... However when the Big Media say nothing about that, so it cannot be true, can be?
(On the other hand, even if really found anything, could it be reversed now?)

I absolutely believe it was intentional. A step in the branding process.
Did you see it on the flag in that picture in that article ?
It won't be long now that you see it everywhere.
A dangerous trend that won't lead anywhere good.
I would say someone who knew suggested it and the rest of the clueless ran with it
So I am watching the director of the FBI testifying at a Senate hearing concerning the insurrection at the Capitol.
Boot licker Lindsey Olin Graham wanted to know if the insurrection was infiltrated by foreign terrorists. When he was told that there were no evidence of such, he wanted to know id it was possible.
"Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa, the top Republican on the committee, spent much of his opening remarks focused not on the right-wing extremists who attacked the Capitol in January, but on left-wing extremists, such as the anti-fascist, or antifa, movement. "
"We have not to date seen any evidence of anarchist violent extremists or people subscribing to antifa in connection with the 6th," Wray said "
""That doesn't mean we're not looking, and we'll continue to look, but at the moment we have not seen that.” "
FBI Director Wray repeatedly rebuts claims that antifa activists attacked Capitol
Yet the republicans insisted in parroting trump's talking points. The republican party has become a joke.
The sooner you fall behind, the more time you have to catch up.
