Right wing hyperventilation reached peak outrage when Hugh Hewitt claimed Americans are reacting to Trump's trial verdict conviction just like when O.J. Simpson was acquitted.
This is balderdash.
Hewitt: I don't want to underestimate how much Americans put in the idea that ours is a country of law and what they saw was not law.
It's like the reaction after OJ was acquitted.
People were stunned. I think people are stunned at the conviction of Donald Trump for much the same reason. It's just off the rails.
This is a complete lie. Most Americans believed that OJ was guilty of murder so his acquittal was earth-shattering at the time.
Most people believe Trump was guilty in his conviction which is not surprising.

Hewitt didn't stop lying from there.
Hewitt: And so Robert Kennedy, a hardcore leftist, all the way over to libertarians who never liked Donald Trump, and indeed a lot of Hillary contributors, have made big checks out to Donald Trump.
This goes back to something that Kellyanne said. I was one of those people that thought Trump should get off of the ticket after the Access Hollywood tape.
I was wrong.
