That people have to invent it. It builds up your cred with the chattering class but the problem is that the chattering class are only a few fellow travelers (20% of the whole population) and the rest of the world can see through your shit. From FOX News:
Jussie Smollett convicted of staging hate crime, lying to cops
Jussie Smollett has been found guilty on 5 out of 6 charges in the alleged hate crime hoax trial.
After a contentious week of witness testimony, counsel arguments and deliberation, the jury found Smollett guilty on the first five counts and he was acquitted on a sixth count, of lying to a detective in mid-February, weeks after Smollett said he was attacked.
Smollett was stoic as the jury read the verdict. The actor sat upright and stared straight ahead without showing any real emotion.
Judge Linn said he will order a pre-sentencing investigation and attorneys will meet via conference call to determine a date for pre-sentencing motions
The judge also said the jury will not be speaking to the media today, if they ever choose to. He is also having deputies escort them to their cars.
What did he think by letting this go to trial. He should have confessed. Blamed PTSD or something, laid low for six months and then returned to the public eye. Now, the whole world knows his name and not in a good way. Talk about a CLM...
