One of the strange joys of this site is reading the insane takes of otherwise intelligent right-wingers as they try to bend reality to fit with their beliefs.

At the very best you'll get "the left forced them to do it" but blank denial of reality and invention of entirely fake parallel worlds is much more likely.

They've been doing that for climate, renewables, COVID, Trump etc. far longer than for DOGE with no sign of giving up.
