You must be tired from all of the mental gymnastics required to infer that from the quoted post.
What has Trump done to this country?

And yet you quoted NY Post, which should tell people all they need to know about you.
This dip-shit has a really good resume too:
But he is still a proven lying sack of shit.

Trump's followers have so many contradicting lies to keep track of, they would sweep the event if mental gymnastics made it to the Olympics.

Oh, really? And what exactly, in your expert opinion, does it say about me? I read multiple sources both left and right to come to my own conclusions. The NY Post article was just the first thing I grabbed, can't say that I've read them much, if at all.
Also, what does my career have to do with the article posted?
Again, you resort to ad hominem fallacy instead of addressing the content.

It says you are at least brainwashed enough into thinking that the NY Post has any credibility.
I never said it did have anything to do with your career.
You are snow flaking and that has nothing to do with what I actually wrote.

You make it sound as if liberals are the arbiters of truth or maybe that's what you believe. What you don't want to acknowledge is that both red and blue are two sides of the same coin.

Not really.
It is that the Republicans have been using lies and propaganda against the Democrats to maintain power.
And as much as people who like the lies pretend otherwise, that is not a 'both sides' issue.
Only one side of that coin is represented by, and trying to legislate for all 100% of our nation, and not just the Wealthy White Heterosexual Male Only agenda like the Republicans are.

Yet you say conservatives are the ones that are brainwashed.

Are you ok?
Are you having a hard time reading, or are you just programmed to think everyone is talking shit about you when online?
What exactly is the 'personal attack' that I did on you, or are you Corey Lewandowski (who is a lying piece of shit)?
Because you asked questions? And yes, snow flaking because you can't seem to read a post without taking it as a personal attack.
What part do you disagree with?
Have you not seen the difference in the parties demographics?

Rep. Kinzinger: They claim 'I'm possessed by the devil' - POLITICO
Rep. Kinzinger: They claim 'I'm possessed by the devil'
The Illinois Republican has launched a website as an effort to refocus the Republican Party’s “conservative principles.”
Rep. Adam Kinzinger on Sunday offered a glimpse of what it’s like being one of the 10 House Republicans who voted to impeach former President Donald Trump: Friends and family turned against him, and he was told he’s “possessed by the devil.”
“Look it’s really difficult. I mean, all of a sudden imagine everybody that supported you, or so it seems that way, your friends, your family, has turned against you. They think you're selling out,” the Illinois congressman said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
“I've gotten a letter, a certified letter, twice from the same people, disowning me and claiming I'm possessed by the devil.”
In the days after the Jan. 6 insurrection at the Capitol, it appeared Republican leaders had decided to take a stand against Trump, with House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy saying Trump bore “responsibility” and that he must accept blame for the riot.
But GOP members have begun heading back to the former president. On Thursday, McCarthy met with Trump at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida, in a meeting that was later described as “very good and cordial.” The readout was released with a photo of the two men smiling.
“I was disappointed over the last few weeks to see what seemed like the Republican Party waking up and then kind of falling asleep again and saying, ‘Well, you know, what matters if we can win in two years and we don't want to tick off the base,’” Kinzinger said.
“The photo," he added, "shows that the former president is desperate to continue looking like he’s leading the party.”
Kinzinger has launched a website, Country1st.com, as an effort to refocus the Republican Party’s “conservative principles.”
“I think the Republican Party has lost its moral authority in a lot of areas,” he said. “How many people think that conservative principles are things like build the wall, and you know, charge the Capitol and have an insurrection? That’s what Country1st ... is all about — is just going back and saying, ‘Here’s what conservative principles are.'"
The Illinois Republican Party is expected to censure Kinzinger for his vote to impeach the president — what he referred to as “GOP cancel culture.” The same has happened for others like GOP Rep. Tom Rice of South Carolina after his vote to impeach. And last week, Rep. Matt Gaetz, (R-Fla.) went to Wyoming to rally against GOP. Rep. Liz Cheney for her moves against Trump.
“If you look at Matt Gaetz going to Wyoming because, what, a tough woman has an independent view and he doesn't want to have to go out and explain why he didn't vote for impeachment, that's totally GOP cancel culture," Kinzinger said. "What we're standing for, and I think what, frankly, a significant part of the base wants, is to say, ‘Look, we can have a diversity of opinion.’”
Outside of the intraparty chaos surrounding the former president’s impeachment, Republicans are also butting heads over the behavior of one of their own.
House Republicans are trying to distance themselves from Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) after hours of Facebook videos surfaced in which she expresses racist, Islamophobic and anti-Semitic views.
Kinzinger said the people have the right to choose their representatives, and that he isn’t sure he supports evicting the congresswoman. But he said he would vote her off committees to “take a stand.”

Remember when Rand Paul said he felt insulted when Biden talked about the threat from white supremacists during his inauguration speech?
In a much smaller situation and with Rand's example in the background, check it out:
Nowhere in your post did you name or even intimate that Max Douchebag was a liar. But he felt personally attacked.

Dude, do you not even comprehend what you yourself wrote?
"And yet you quoted NY Post, which should tell people all they need to know about you"
Is that not a personal attack? I could quote more but I think it may be lost on you.
At no point in the post that you quoted did I ask a question concerning politics. Try some reading comprehension.
I disagree with all 3 of your points. If you can't see that the same argument can be made in favor of Republicans then you yourself are obviously brainwashed as well.

Nobody says conservatives were brainwashed. Republicans aren't conservative. They are in fact brainwashed but not all, about 75% are. The dupes are not conservatives. They are authoritarian white nationalists and yes, they are easily duped and manipulated by their leader, Donald Trump.

So, I take it you are OK with everything Trump has been doing to erase our democracy?
