Hey everybody it's Joe Trippy and welcome back to that Trippy show.

down in the last week.

The Republicans just won't let January 6th and the big lie alone.

The RNC came out and I think this was like in the official, some official communication

from them describing the insurrection as quote legitimate political discourse

which is really all we need to know right I mean it it's like does the average American voter even notice that kind of stuff because it seems like that's a pretty big deal what they came out and said

Look I think

They we still have a lot of people who aren't paying attention to this stuff.
