My God, these Republicans are such losers. Here’s the chair of the RNC casually claiming Democrats stole the 2020 election—with zero evidence to back it up. They simply cannot grasp how deeply unpopular their policies are with the American people.

So, first of all, of course it was Trump.
But even if they were telling the truth, "We give staffers who post videos of the Obamas as apes access to the agenda-setting, decree-sending, market-moving account of the president of the United States" is not the exculpatory statement they think it is.

This contradicts Karoline Leavitt’s implication that some random, unnamed low-level staffer was to blame for posting the now-deleted racist Obama ape video.
