They'd sooner believe in the tooth fairy than that something is tilted in the system, or appear in public having said it was. They are the same ones that told Gore to stand down in 2000.

They are their own kind of true believers and wouldn't see actual cheating if it happened in front of them under stage lighting and on camera with narration. They'd sooner think the Russians hacked in from the outside than that the GOP paid American companies to do it.

They are the same fools that approved Justice Roberts without even thinking twice.
