    Nancy Mace claimed, with a straight face, in an interview with Jake Tapper that she’s spoken to Democrats in Congress that say they trust Jim Jordan.

    I burst out in laughter. I honestly had not laughed that long in a very long time.

    Jake Tapper finally got her to admit that they “trusted Jim Jordan more than Kevin McCarthy.” Not exactly a high bar there.

      The fallacy of understated evidence is a favorite of politicians, especially Republicans.

      Also, I don’t fucking believe even her adjusted claim. Give names or STFU, Nancy.

      I trust that Jim Jordan will do anything to to get Trump into power and overthrow the government.
