The necessary follow up when liars reveal themselves like this is: if you lie like this, why should I trust anything else you say? Why should you trust what these people say about tax cuts or war or… anything?

Any analysis of the Iran War that doesn't start and end with the fact that an entire cottage industry of think tankers and lobbyists and their friends in Congress were frothing at the mouth for literal decades for this got exactly what they wanted and it failed immediately and totally is wrong.

What makes the outbreak of Trump scrubbing off GOP websites particularly chancy is a lot of these candidates only had any juice BECAUSE they were close to Trump or endorsed by him. Without that many aren't particularly strong candidates.

A useful way to think about it is to imagine a republican candidate saying one thing that you liked, agreeing with you on exactly one issue. That would totally work, right? Donald Trump announces he’s for one thing you are also for and then you vote for him. See how stupid it sounds.
