Fox News' Jesse Watters defended former President Donald Trump's "legal right" to submit slates of fake electors to states following the 2020 election.
This is how they always do it. Vehemently deny that he did it until the evidence is incontrovertible. Then do a complete 180 and say of course he did it but there’s nothing wrong with that.
That didn’t happen.
And if it did, it wasn’t that bad.
And if it was, that’s not a big deal.
And if it is, that’s not my fault.
And if it was, I didn’t mean it.
And if I did, you deserved it.
Global warming is not happening!
OK, maybe it’s happening, but there’s no evidence it’s human caused!
OK, maybe it’s happening, and maybe it’s human caused, but doing something about it would be too large an economic burden! <- You are here.

yup, and somehow they found out that it does not matter if you’re always wrong publicly while being recorded. All you need to do is to never admit to it, and double down on the next wrong step really hard with extreme confidance. Throw in a few accusations that your oponents did worse, even if this is without merits, and voila. Using this simple trick you could become the most influential person in the world.
