_ “If you say the election wasn’t stolen, do you really think you’re going to get hired?" ex-RNC staffer says_
The Republican National Committee is asking prospective job candidates if they believe the 2020 election was stolen in a “litmus tests of sorts” following the Trump-backed purge of the party committee, according to the Washington Post.
Trump advisers have “quizzed” multiple employees who worked in key 2024 states about their views on the 2020 election, according to the report.
“Was the 2020 election stolen?” one prospective employee recalled being asked in a room with two top Trump advisers.
The question has “startled” some potential employees who view it as “questioning their loyalty to Trump,” according to the Post.
Thinking these people are dumb is dumb. They’re not dumb, they’re evil. You don’t have to believe something to say something, and they know this. Don’t conflate their actions with ignorance; it’s what got us into this mess.
These are smart people with an evil agenda at the top. They may hire downstream idiots, but that doesn’t make these strategies less effective. If anything, it gives those at the top more power.
