A certain segment of the population will always jump at whatever thin reed is offered to support their priors (and that's not just on the right).

What can be hoped is that those open to convincing and those who might need a bit of reminding are getting it.

Also, they can talk about splicing and editing all they want, but things like Barr calling it bullshit and other stuff doesn't lie, and anyone who might question that need only be reminded that those being shown testifying would be suing if it wasn't true. And they're not.

"Barr's a RINO who betrayed Trump," they say without the least self-awareness that they are admitting that for them fealty to Trump takes priority over loyalty to the Constitution, or that the true RINOs are Trump supporters because they have forsaken long-standing Republican values. Their TDS affliction may one day end up in the DSM-5-TR.

Not that I put myself in situations to debate such things, but I keep coming back to the incredibly long list of RINO's that Trump hired and that then betrayed him. Such a horribly bad judge of character. Like, the worst. Really, really bad.
