The Hill ^ | May 8, 2017 | Joe Concha

Fox News’ Charles Krauthammer ripped Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.) on Monday for "his tremendously elaborate theory" around Russian involvement in the 2016 presidential election, asking "Who gave him the tinfoil hat?"

Krauthammer's comments came after Franken presented a lengthy hypothetical to former acting Attorney General Sally Yates around Russian connections to former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn and the 18-day delay between when she made the White House aware of Flynn's apparent lie and when he was tendered his resignation....

It’s only purpose is to distract from the comparatively easy crimes to solve: Benghazi and Hillary’s emails.

Conspiracy theories have become mainstream again with the Democrat party. They were rampant all through the Bush administration, when they said he blew up the levees in New Orleans to kill black voters.

Good memory. plus all the 9-11 theories. I can still remember Hillary asking "what did he know and when did he know it?"

Franken was born with a tinfoil hat. Maybe he suffered brain damage when he wore the gorilla suit in “Trading Places” and didn’t get enough oxygen.

Or may he’s just plain dumbassed stupid, which is a perfect qualification for the corrupt Democrats of Minnesota.

Actually that should plane fat-assed stupid.

This was being touted on YouTube as “Franken takes down Trump.”

A criminal conspiracy of fraud put Al Franken in office and with that, the passing vote for Obamacare.

FUAF

Franken has about an 18 IQ along with the maturity of a 7 year old.

Way to go Minnesota... You voted for an idiot with no resume because he had a little tiny bit of celebrity... Way to go.

I sure didn’t hear the left complaining about foreign governments interfering in our elections when the foreign governments were attacking Donald Trump; for example, when former Canadian Prime Minister Kim Campbell got on television and started calling Trump a “sexual predator” a month before the election. She was obviously trying to sway our election in favor of Hillary and the left was just fine with it.

Conspiracy theories have become mainstream again with the Democrat party.


And that is a good thing because that means they are in the margins of society instead of mainstream America. And they defeat their own credibility.

Is it too late to investigate Frankensteins questionable election that gave us Obamacare in the first place?

Just like a gypsy around the campfire telling a good story to plant an image in the listeners heads, so it is with this. Create a false memory so others can in the future exploit it with the “what do you mean you don’t remember when...” shaming into lock-step thinking.
