BWAAAAA!!!

This is soooooo fucking Republican!

With Clinton exonerated, conspiracy theorists turn on Trey Gowdy



With the Republicans’ Benghazi Committee uncovering no meaningful new information, and with the panel’s investigation effectively exonerating Hillary Clinton, right-wing conspiracy theorists this week had no choice but to give up and find a new hobby.
HA!
No, I’m just kidding.
They’re actually redirecting their ire towards Benghazi Committee Chairman Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.).

Conservatives are turning on Gowdy, in whom they invested so much hope. The far-right South Carolinian was supposed to bury, not exonerate, Hillary Clinton.

Michael Savage told his radio audience, “Trey Gowdy should be impeached for wasting my time! He promised us a lot! Remember?”
(Members of Congress can not be Impeached, they get Expelled)

A woman in the crowd floated a new Benghazi conspiracy. “Has someone in the GOP leadership gotten their fingers involved in watering down some of this to benefit Secretary Clinton?” she asked. Nobody rebutted this idea.

Herein lies a lesson for Republicans who are perpetually trying to appease the far right: It’s a fool’s errand. They went to the tea party – and now they’re taking Donald Trump to the prom.

John Boehner named the Benghazi committee because activists were dissatisfied that seven previous congressional investigations had failed to uncover major scandal material.
Now an eighth has produced more of the same – and the agitators are as agitated as ever.

Here's the twisted logic to this.
-The unhinged right starts with the ideologically satisfying answer: that President Obama and Hillary Clinton are guilty of horrible Benghazi-related wrongdoing
- then works backwards, looking for “proof” that matches the conclusion.
- When their ostensible allies fail to tell these activists what they want to hear, they could reevaluate their bogus assumptions, but it’s vastly easier to believe Republicans have let them down.



Rep. Trey Gowdy's (R-SC) Benghazi Committee didn't tell far-right conspiracy theorists what they wanted to hear.

So conservative activists are turning on Gowdy with a vengeance.



P.S. "The unhinged right" in this story, is you Bubbles, it's you.
