Michele Bachmann blames Democrats for storming the Capitol building in most unhinged rant yet

Former GOP congress member Michele Bachmann (R-MN) has been a vociferous supporter of President Donald Trump. She has endorsed his baseless conspiracy theories and cheered his cruelest attacks on her fellow Americans.

While her time in office was most noted for her wholehearted embrace of radical rightwing politics wrapped up a religious veneer, truthfulness was never considered one of her best qualities. So it’s no surprise that Bachmann is now telling her most unhinged lie yet now that she’s out of office. She claims the insurrectionists who invaded the nation’s Capitol building at Trump’s urging were actually Democrats paid to start a coup.
