(#4514) Fact checking the lies and the bullshit

      Over the last four previous years we got a heavy dose of lies and bullshit from the trump cabal so we the United States of America citizenry have learned to filter out the crap and call it out as well. So now that the trump cabal has been neutered mostly we are not getting as much of the lies and bullshit from before. But when we do get it we are ready since we had years to hone our detecting and calling it out skills. What the republican party doesn't seem to get is that we are now experts at recognizing their crap. Because they keep trying to feed it to us in full shovel amounts.
     What the republican party also doesn't get is that their usual pile of crap they try to pass off as fact or truth is not working. Because most of us are aware of it now as a rule, not an exception. That old saw of If a republican is talking he is lying is a given not just an embellishment. I had been concerned earlier this year that given the historical off year election swing to the party out of power that we might have trouble keeping our majorities in the House and Senate. But as time keeps moving forward I am less worried about that now because of the never ending lies from republicans and the keen awareness we the majority seem to have about them.
     I do believe that when the numbers that are counted from votes at the end of the 2022 election will be closer than the 2020 election I now think that we democrats will hold our majorities and actually increase them albeit by little more so than greatly. The reason is that despite trump not being on the ballot his influence is largely there and with that come the lies and bullshit. Of which the majority of Americans here in the US are keenly aware. The fact that the Biden administration is strong and moving forward rapidly is also helpful. As Joe Biden keeps advocating for US citizens, people are attracted to his message. Leaving republicans fighting over the divisions in their ranks and not adding new potential voters.
