🤡 Schmitt beclowns himself 🤡 Schmitt concocted an elaborate conspiracy theory that Smith traveled to Atl for a Hawks game and to collude with Fani Willis, & flashed his "evidence" before accusing Smith of perjury. There's just one problem -- his facts were totally wrong. Here's the whole sequence:

Truly incredible how Trump has destroyed every single Republican talking point just in time for the midterms
Screenshot of an X post from the verified “Senate Republicans” account, @SenateGOP. The post reads: “Democrat socialists love to promise free stuff. But they never mention who pays for it.” Beneath the post is an X Community Note labeled “Readers added context.” The note states: “President Donald Trump has proposed several direct cash payouts and rebates funded by tariffs or budget cuts. None were provided.” It lists links from WBAL-TV, ABC7 Chicago, YouTube, and The New York Times as sources.

Since Trump took office, the average household has paid over $4,200 extra for everyday goods and services, thanks to his backwards policies. Trump promised $2 gas. Today, the national average is $4.48 — while diesel has surged to a record $6.53 a gallon. Republicans have done NOTHING to stop this.
