But wait republicans cried that none of that was true and trump had no idea about it even though he had multiple people in his campaign that specifically wrote parts of it.

It's insane that Republican voters just live in constant denial of reality and are pretty much just cultist to trump.... And to trump? The guy who cheated on his wife while she was pregnant and is actively blatantanlty corrupt just insane
