Gary Tuchman of CNN was interviewing people outside trump's rally last night...

...(or the night before) about Q Anon and the "deep state".

He asked a woman if she believed there was a "deep state", to which she said "yes." Then he asked "has there been any evidence of it yet?"

Answer:

"There hasn't been any non-evidence!"

that Trump is an alien lizard person sent to destroy America, either, for that matter

There hasn't been non-evidence for the pee pee tape not being real, either. (did I say that correctly?)

It all makes sense - the tapes, the insane tweets, the weird orange lizard skin. Why didn't I see it before?
