Al.com, a local news outlet, said Attorney General Steve Marshall’s office confirmed he was prosecuting the case.
Republicans, probably: “See? We told you there was fraud!”
No, it’ll be: “Why aren’t the democrat frauds being arrested too!?!?!?!?”. Everyone: “There’s no evidence”. Them: “It’s a conspiracy!” Everyone: “The few that have been found to have committed fraud, even by accident, have gone to prison. There’s no conspiracy.” Them: “They’re just part of the cover up, they’re probably plants.”
It’s exhausting just to list their predictable retorts, especially when you know it’ll never convince them and they’ll just start looping through the bullshit until “Everyone” just gives up. That’s how they win.
