And theory number three is that Massey has brain worms, and he thought that he would win because of X. Because if you actually follow
these things on X. You thought the entire election was about Israel.
But as I pointed out up top, if you were a resident of his congressional district, every ad you saw on TV had nothing to do with Israel.
Attacking Israel was just Massey's defense mechanism for failing as a congressperson.
As per our usual arrangement, attacks will be levied at particular people over things that have nothing to do with Israel and trying to get a bunch of clicks and trying to
rally the support of some of the worst people on the internet, you just start talking about Israel.
That is the new tactic.
So Massey may have thought he was going to win because he was watching X. That's the only way you explain why he is hanging out with Cenk Uygur the day before an election in a district that has zero Cenk Uygur supporters.
But it turns out that reality still exists.
Online is not real, as we have been saying.
And it turns out that people in Kentucky did not care about the Israel issue.
It's not that everybody in Kentucky's fourth district is wildly pro-Israel or tools of the Jews or anything.
It's the people in Kentucky's fourth district don't give a crap about that issue.
That is how Thomas Massey ended up as a seven-term congressperson in that particular race.
It turns out Kentucky voters don't give a crap about the Epstein conspiracy theories or your nutty Tucker Carlson junk about how Israel is the worst country on the planet.
And it turns out neither do most people.
You can ask James Fishbeck, who's going to soon win about seven votes in Florida, or Casey Putsch, whose voting base looks like one of those Western ghost towns with the tumbleweeds, or Marjorie Taylor Greene, who took it harder in her Georgia election than she did from her personal trainer.
So let's just be real.
Reality still exists.
And by the way, in the Republican Party, that reality is that if Trump endorses your opponent, you got some problems.
