Vance is such a strange breed of liar because it's precisely his appeal to facts and his desire to appear in command of them that trips him up and allows him to be caught.

I think you're missing the point. It's not that he doesn't know. It's that he knows the people that vote for him don't know & he can shovel whatever bullshit he wants & they'll swallow it whole.
He's very gauche & is obviously out of his comfort zone as VP of the country. I can easily envision him as the chubby little boy in grade school who was regularly bullied by the other boys who would push him to the ground and steal his lunch money. Either way, he's an ass.
There's a big difference between 'desire' and 'ability.'
Dude believes his own BS, and has no self-awareness that anyone would even follow up. ("I was told there'd be no fact-checking.") Even when they do, he's still right, and they're 'mis-interpreting' him. It's old, tired and played out.
they see one, pretend it’s something else, then crow about their make-believe discovery.
See “$8 million for making transgender mice. This is real.”
no, it’s not.
Vice presidents have never held much power but Vance seems entirely impotent. He has to work hard to even be noticed and he makes a fool of himself when he manages to be. He’s just along for the ride at this point.
If they speak the lie with conviction, their moronic supporters believe it, regardless if the truth is presented at the same time. They’re dumb AF, they need to be spoon fed their lies.
He's a punk ass little bitch...who is desperately trying to look tough and strong to his base...and coming off as a lightweight;who they will dump in a second, if they think they can get FATBOY a 3rd term.
If the guy is affiliated with MS 13, then he’s part of the enemy invasion or the predatory incursion that got him bounced without any depress. I really don’t have a problem with it. If you came here illegally and you got caught up in that, then that’s your own fault.
There are enough useful MAGA idiots that believe and spread his lies, and so mission accomplished. The braindead MAGA on twitter shows as "evidence" the same government lies the judge rejected in 2019, hence why they released him and was given a protection from removal order.
This is SOP for the MAGA cult assault on truth. They print these lies, fully knowing they are lies, assuming and counting on MAGAtes unwillingness and lack of critical thought. MAGAtes accept the lies as fact without fact check or scrutiny. It becomes pseudo-facts. MAGAtes have no use for truth.
Shit, I never paid a parking ticket in Montreal in 2001 before returning to the US. They’re gonna disappear me if I ever set foot in Canada again, huh?

A 1980s Reaganite would often rattle off bogus 'facts and figures'. The Gish-Gallop of the era. Few had real facts on hand to refute them.
Vance would've done much better, back then, tbh.
anyone bragging about mensa membership is a walking dunning-kruger effect
An old white lady in a Prius recently rear ended me and sped off...does she get to go to Gitmo or El Salvador? I'm out $700 for a new bumper.
There's now a huge gulf between being factually wrong and actually being tripped up.
Technically you're right. Technically he's wrong. Is this debate club, where is the real world impact?
So far it's working for them. All you're highlighting is that they are committed to the bit.
Ok, we knew that.
