... but where did the Republican talking point that Tim Walz drank horse semen come from? Usually these things have a grain (however small) of truth in them, like maybe in this case, he artificially inseminated horses on his farm, or something? Because making up something like that out of absolutely nothing strikes me as risking some fierce blowback (if you'll pardon the pun).

For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

Ok, so a bunch of idiots saw something that purported to be a real news article, and believed it (or at least pretended to do so). That at least makes sense in some warped way.

The folks who are laughing about a VP candidate they falsely accuse of drinking horse semen, have decided that it will be a smart move to pretend to traffic in the other VP candidate's semen:
