Not one of those says “I wish they had been from somewhere else.”
There’s a huge difference between “we have to acknowledge it was one of us” and “I wish they had been from somewhere else.”
One takes ownership of the failure of the society, the other cowardly tries to avoid the failure.
It’s straight up lies from the top. Lower down believers project but the leaders are purposely lying to make projections easier.
The difference is that people who project their faults aren’t necessarily aware that they’re projecting. The Republican leaders know what they’re saying is not only false but that they themselves are guilty of their accusations.
