"It’s the constant platforming of 'debates' over things we already know—like climate change & vaccine efficacy—as if the only reason the public is confused is because they haven’t heard the 'other side' enough times.

This American #GOP self-sabotage has been going on since at least #GeorgeWBush, #Obama, AND #Biden.
