It’s pretty easy to be Many Time Champion if you cheat like a motherfucker every time you play. He can’t stop whining and playing the martyr, which makes him a lot like his supporters, whether they’re talking about the war on Christmas, Critical Race Theory, Confederate statues, Hillary’s emails, Hunter Biden, etc. ad nauseum.

They don’t think they’re the ones being lied to - they think they’re in on the lie.
