“Democrats claimed the hearing was “ridiculous” and a distraction.”
Standard tactic of the Left - STAY ON OFFENSE. Don’t get into the muck, as it gives credibility to your opponents arguments. Just flat our say it’s their imagination, implying that they’re mentally sick.
Dems, such as in this example, and with Shift and Schumer, are VERY, VERY, good at this. Our side is hopeless.
Well, if by “our side” you mean the RINOs, they’re on the side of Schumer and Nadler.
