Alright, for arguments sake, let's give them the benefit of the doubt here. Let's assume that there was no one that entered or exited his room that night, that he killed himself alone in the room, that they released the tape in a good faith effort to show the truth to the world, and that, due to corruption or whatever unavoidable issue, those minutes were lost through no nefarious means and those missing minutes would have been as clean as the rest of the tape.... They're still morons for releasing it! How the fuck did they think that missing time would be interpreted!? They stoke conspiracy on the daily like it is their job with WAY less blatantly suspicious circumstances than this. Even if they weren't a bunch of evil fascists that are definitely trying to hide something, but just otherwise normal morons, they deserve the fallout of this for being that stupid.
Lying and being wildly incompetent are like hallmarks of the Trump regime.
It’s a loyalty test. MAGA is a cult, and all about believing obvious lies. The more egregious the lie believed, the more it locks people into the cult. Anyone with a weak faith in the cult who shows dissent can be purged.
