I am trying to decide on the plausibility of two scenarios...
1. These GOP electeds are truly this stupid and given to outlandish conspiracy mongering?
2. This is some well-coordinated campaign to get their voters ginned up on fear, real or not, and that feeling stays because rightwing outlets never cover the apology/excuse and the target voter cannot be bothered to follow up or investigate on their own?

Is The Hill related to The Onion? This surely must be satire, right?

It’s real. The GOP is not the GOP anymore. It’s a bunch of mini trump grifters. Sad as hell. Can’t believe that guy took over and killed my party. We are a nation of idiots.

FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich. (AP) — A Michigan state lawmaker involved in former President Donald Trump’s election denials is being widely criticized after the Republican made false claims that buses carrying college athletes to Detroit for March Madness were shuttling illegal migrant “invaders” into the city.
State House Rep. Matt Maddock made the claim Wednesday night in a social media post accompanied by photos of three buses near an Allegiant plane at Detroit Metropolitan Airport. Maddock wrote that the buses “just loaded up with illegal invaders.”80 -

So, you guys are totally upset about this guy misunderstanding the purpose of these specific busses? I'm confused. These busses do exist, so is this really anything more than a "haha" story? We all know that these people are being shipped all over, no?

There’s a lot of (2) going on, and not just from the right either, but I usually associate that more with the parties’ media arms than the politicians themselves. Not that pols can’t work the grift themselves, it they’re usually so pre-scripted and say-a-lot-while-saying-nothing that whenever one of them originates something silly like this, I assume it was (1) unless proven otherwise. Maybe it’s different when the upper echelon politicians originate some BS of the (2) type (Trump was and is the master of this), but a low level guy like this was probably just being an complete idiot.

Sally why are you using an alternate handle. If you want to stay anonymous it would be a good idea not to end your post with your trademark ending, no?
