A C-SPAN caller’s contradictory comment from California had many people scratching their heads Friday. The man says he can’t support an insurrectionist (i.e. President-elect Donald Trump), but adds that he supports Democrats staging an insurrection against him. What what?
Listen to it yourself. (LOOK)
“I can’t support an insurrectionist, I simply can’t. And I would really love to see Democrats and independents do an insurrection against Donald Trump.”

When these words came out of his mouth, why didn’t his brain melt due to the logical contradiction?
This isn’t even cognitive dissonance. This is stage 4 of TDS.

Some say that having these contradictory thoughts in your head at the same time would make George Orwell jump out of his grave and say, ‘I told you so!’
What a hypocritical idiot! “I can’t support an insurrectionist, but let’s have an insurrection against Trump.” Do you listen to yourselves?!!

Democrats: “It’s not an insurrection when we do it…”

Ah yes, the paradox of ‘I can’t support an insurrectionist, but I can suggest one’… a master class in advanced psychological gymnastics. It’s not cognitive dissonance; It is an irony at the Olympic level, and they are going for gold.

“I cannot support an insurrectionist, but I aspire to be an insurrectionist.”

Some were surprised that I could be against something and at the same time be for it in the same sentence. That’s pretty impressive!
I hope someone plays this so this clown can hear what he said. How stupid are people really?

It’s a perfect example of Orwell’s doublethink. It demonstrates a person’s inability to think and reason independently.
He has been captured by the Party.

The hypocrisy in the same sentence is astonishing.

Studies have shown that the left doesn’t understand hypocrisy… it’s science.

Thank God they haven’t learned from their mistakes.

Democrats and other sectors of the left are not handling Trump’s re-election well. They have learned nothing from their loss. Expect even more abandonments of logic and reason as his term begins and his agenda advances in Congress. Get ready for maximum madness.
