If his lawyer gets him off the hook with it, it was a brilliant defense. And then I fully expect right winger seditionist will cite a whole host of mental illnesses that caused them to betray our nation.
I am compiling a list of treason inducing ailments they might use as we speak.
Trumpophilia: an uncontrollable attraction and need to worship the lying scam artist and conman Donald J Trump. It is a destructive mental is disorder specific to the conservative regions of the United States. Although it has claim lives in such places as New Zealand mosques and inspired terroristic uprisings throughout the nation.
Winger-patriotomy: The removal of every last patriotic bone in a person's body.
OANosis: It is a progressive disease of the mind where under the influence of conservative media the individual moves further and further right towards complete hardcore Fascism.
Breitbartomas: are growths that cause a condition where the minds of right-wingers skip over or completely ignore pertinent facts from past incidents when trying to defend their own behaviors. These growths mostly affect an individual righty's honesty and integrity.
Contagious Qarreha: the uncontrollable discharge insane right wing conspiracy theories. If left on its own the disease will spread rapidly among the naive and gullible.
Minoriphobia: a paranoia fixated upon the belief that minorities are trying to steal your elections by impersonating people who have the right to vote against your agenda.
I am sure the list will grow as Trump rioters plead their cases.
