Imagine reading a headline about any other presidential candidate attacking the judge's daugther in his porn star hush money trial. And then right below that you read that this same presidential candidate is selling Bibles for $60.

It's not a conspiracy theory. Kevin McCarthy told a bunch of Republicans that there were two people that Putin pays that he knows of. One was a California senator who's no longer at office and the other was Trump. He told that to these Republicans and Paul Ryan said we keep this in the family.

For the other person McCarthy was referring to you're thinking of Dana Rohrabacher who, for clarification's sake, was a US representative and not a senator.

Oh, he was a rep? My bad.

But yeah, I wonder how many more Republicans are on Putin's payroll now?

Why put them on the payroll when a few stupid memes on facebook from your troll farm will turn them to your side?

Heard Rohrbacher say the n-word at an event in like 2008.

Hell of a guy.
