@juddlegum He couldn't just abandon the guy he's responsible for convincing to run. Yes, that's right: Hannity is at fault for all of this.

@juddlegum why intentionally lying to a large audience should not be considered "free speech"

@juddlegum This will have no effect on the morons that spoon his bile into their rotted brains. Republicans are a hate cult now. I foresee no remedy, as division and lies are a replacement for policy solutions.

@juddlegum that figures for another of Fox's "entertainment only" segments. These middlemen in the Big Coup are so complicit yet any shred of responsibility or culpability runs off them like water on a ducks back.

@juddlegum Is there any speculation on what the Fox strategy will be if this gets to a jury? It seems suboptimal to have your talking heads talking like this in discovery.

@juddlegum Because he's a talk show host and not a journalist, so he can get away with lying. If we brought back The Fairness Doctrine, could it keep people like him from spreading lies?
