It's not completely on the left, PC.
The cucks in the NeverTrump movement were in on it from the very beginning
Julie Kelly on Jonah Goldberg and David French: Not a Fan
She's done two great pieces at American Greatness on these Useless Idiots which I've been derelict in linking:
1,How McCain's Man Spread the Fake Dossier Around and Got the Coup-Ball Rolling
2, NeverTrumper's Critical Complicity in Mainstreaming the Russia Collusion Hoax (with special shout-outs to Noted Skeptics Jonah Goldberg and David French)
Her point about them being "lazy" is well-taken. Yesterday, someone commented on Jonah Goldberg's complete refusal to engage with Mollie Hemingway in a twitter dispute (which he started, of course) on the facts. He just kept offering vague demurrals.
I told a friend: He can't engage. He's read literally nothing about the makings of the dossier, or how the Trump briefing was staged so it could be leaked to CNN, or anything at all -- he only reads headlines on Twitter from Trusted Liberals and Fellow Never-Trumpers, so of course he doesn't read any of this "conspiratorial nonsense" (which just so happens to be, you know, true).
So his only method of "argument" is a sneering dismissal of the opponent's worthiness to engage with him. But that's not just arrogance; that's him covering up for the fact that he literally has no idea what the terms of discussion even are and he is petrified of having to guess and bluff his way through any discussion that gets off his preferred plane of surface-level snark and Star Trek references.
He'd be revealed as the Goucher School of Cartooning, Pet Grooming, and Clown Science blufferthat he's been his whole fucking life. Oh, and he's probably sneak in his six-thousandth repetition of a reference that he and no one else thinks is funny: "gas-station sushi."
