_ “If you say the election wasn’t stolen, do you really think you’re going to get hired?" ex-RNC staffer says_

The Republican National Committee is asking prospective job candidates if they believe the 2020 election was stolen in a “litmus tests of sorts” following the Trump-backed purge of the party committee, according to the Washington Post.

Trump advisers have “quizzed” multiple employees who worked in key 2024 states about their views on the 2020 election, according to the report.

“Was the 2020 election stolen?” one prospective employee recalled being asked in a room with two top Trump advisers.

The question has “startled” some potential employees who view it as “questioning their loyalty to Trump,” according to the Post.

    It’s not insane, it’s exactly how cult leaders operate.

    You’ve got to deny the same reality that the cult does or you’re on the outside.

      It’s not insane, it’s exactly how cults work.

      As if the two are mutually exclusive… You can be insane without being a member of a cult, but cult membership is by definition not a trait of psychologically healthy people.
