Albert Watkins, the “Q Shaman” Jacob Chansley’s attorney, said his client had Asperger’s syndrome and indicated that Chansley’s mental state — and the impact of Trump’s “propaganda” efforts — would play a role in his case.

“A lot of these defendants — and I’m going to use this colloquial term, perhaps disrespectfully — but they’re all ******* short-bus people,” Watkins told TPM. “These are people with brain damage, they’re ******* retarded, they’re on the ******* spectrum.”

“But they’re our brothers, our sisters, our neighbors, our coworkers — they’re part of our country. These aren’t bad people, they don’t have prior criminal history. ****, they were subjected to four-plus years of ******* propaganda the likes of which the world has not seen since ******* Hitler.”

Own what? The defense of the Capitol insurgents is they were mentally disabled and particularly vulnerable to Trump’s propaganda, which is not unlike what many have said all along.

I guess not…

The base.

Q-berts

This is what I don't get. I assume you are talking about Q-Anon. Kind of like the KKK, I know literally nobody that is a member of such groups nor do I know anybody that knows a member of such groups. It simply is not on my radar for any reason. Why is this link of some obscure group or cause linked to Conservatives. Just not the case in reality.

Are you saying the people who stormed the Capitol aren't conservative?

They aren’t conservatives, at least not someone who is shirtless wearing Buffalo horns.
