Angela Stanton-King (seen here with Donald Trump) storms out of interview when confronted about her QAnon conspiracy theories. |
I do adore this development:
On Wednesday, Angela Stanton-King — a Trump-loving GOP candidate running for the late civil rights hero Rep. John Lewis’ congressional seat in Metro Atlanta — was interviewed by The Guardian‘s Oliver Laughland, and angrily cut short the interview when asked about her past tweets appearing to reference the QAnon conspiracy theory. Believers of QAnon, which holds that Trump is secretly working to bring down a Democratic-controlled ring of cannibalistic, Satanic pedophiles, have dabbled in anti-Semitism and have been flagged as a source of domestic terrorism. As a result, some Republican candidates who have affiliated themselves with it now try to deny their involvement — as Stanton-King tried to do.
As you can see in the tweet below, girlfriend tried Laughland and he pulled out the receipts:

Ms. Stanton-King learned on that day. Just like she learned Wednesday. And as long as she continues to proudly drape herself in ignorance, she will continue to learn.

It's always entertaining to see the hater crowd taken down a peg or two!
That was wonderful! I will raise a glass of adrenochrome to that intrepid interviewer tonight!
She demonstrates the power of uncritical thinking. “It was raining that day” is pure Trumpian thought. To prove it, I think the reporter should have done a bit of research to prove to her face that it did not rain that day
No, she was TAUGHT. Chances are, she didn't LEARN anything.
