    It’s the same song and dance. Assuming they even got the right person, they’ll then dig through his entire life trying to find the “right” information, in this case pertaining to his voting history and political affiliation. If he’s progressive, it’ll get used as ammo for every right wing chud to regurgitate to their masses. If he’s conservative, we won’t hear shit about this through most news sources.

      We’re beyond that point now I think. There are enough former maga people right now that are still very much right wing nuts, but, they’ll just label them as leftist either way. Most of this country hates Israel for example. So, they’ll just call everyone a leftist at this point.
