Trump Supporter's Brain Melts When He's Asked To Explain Conspiracy Theory

In a recent video from The Good Liars, a pair of Trump supporters were asked about the events of January 6th, where they claimed that it was actually Antifa that carried out, or at least who was behind, the attack on the Capitol. When asked to explain how that made any sense at all, the pair couldn't wrapped their brains around it and realized very quickly that it made no sense. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses what happened.

Recently at a, uh, Republican event, the group calling themselves the good liars, approached a couple of Trump supporters and asked them about their thoughts on the January 6th, the capital riot. And of course, these individuals said they believed that Antifa did it. And without giving too much away, they asked, well, how does that make any sense? And at that point, after explaining it to 'em, these two Trump supporters basically had their minds blown. So here it is, again, I don't wanna give too much away. The clip does a wonderful job explaining it. So take a look at the good liars blowing the minds of these two Trump supporters. Here it is.

How do you all feel about the events of January 6th?

Uh, a lot of that was Antifa really? Um, yes. Why,

Why would Antifa interrupt the certification of an election in which their candidate w won wouldn't they want him to be certified?

Uh, it just, they, uh, just want disrupt in any way possible.

Do, do you think, do you think Antifa wanted him to be president, I guess is what I'm, what I'm asking. Yes. Yeah. So why would they interrupt the certification of the vote on January 6th?

I have a different view.

Well, is if you, it is just like, if you have a,

Yeah, it, it

Doesn't make sense, right? Like why would they would do that?

Well,

What's brilliant about this and I love what the good liars do. It's absolutely phenomenal if you haven't seen their film, uh, I suggest you do it. You can actually find it on the mid touch, uh, YouTube channel. But what they did was just ask basic, simple logical questions. Right. I, I know they're very funny and they, they do a lot of things that are humorous, but all he was doing in that clip was literally laying out how their conspiracy theory couldn't work in practice. And it did blow their minds. Like their brains were just melting. They couldn't wrap their heads around, like, hold up. I never thought of that because I never thought too much into it. Of course it couldn't have been Antifa because they wanted Joe Biden to win. So how, how does this make any sense? Like they just question their entire worldview in the span of like five seconds, all because somebody bothered to ask them a question, ask them to explain it.

And that is the thing with these conspiracy theories, that many people on the right hold, and you can do it in ways, you know, make them question these ridiculous things. They believe without being a, he was not being a. And yes, there's the sarcastic undertone. Sure. But at the same time, if we start approaching these people, you know, non confrontationally, because that's the key, that's what he does in the video. Just non confrontationally and say, okay, well, how does that work? But did you ever think about this? You know, why could this have happened if X, Y, or Z, honestly, folks, sometimes it really is that simple. Now I'm not saying that these two people immediately went home, burned their mag of shirts and bought, uh, you know, Joe Biden, bumper stickers. But if you can deprogram them, you know, one conspiracy theory at a time that's helpful. And that is exactly what happened there. And if you can make people laugh in the process, then that's just an added bonus, but start questioning them in a friendly way. And you might be surprised at how many people you get to start thinking about some of the crazy things they believe.
