Right wing pundit Erick Erickson finds it necessary to be careful when trying to speak truth:
What [Molly Ball’s Time Magazine] article actually does is show just how inept the Republicans were in 2020 across the board. Privately, when you talk to members of President Trump’s campaign team, including those who participated in the post-mortem of their election, they will admit there was a lot of ineptitude on the Republican side. Many of them are now screaming about a stolen election, which has provided them a smokescreen to avoid being held accountable for their incompetence. This has nothing to do with the President, but the people who surrounded the President and made a lot of money grifting off of President Trump’s campaign.
So long as you dare not criticize Dear Leader, you aren’t going to find truth.
Truth is, the buck stops at Trump. Truth is, Trump hired these people, and therefore he should have vetted them.
Truth is, Trump ran an amateur’s campaign and suffered an amateur’s fate.
And Erickson knows this. He exclaimed upon it once, even if I can’t find the damn quote.
Trump shot himself in the damn foot, like any amateur will, but Erickson doesn’t dare point to the hopping because you just don’t do that in the Party of That Idiot Trump.
