I mean at least go with "they haven't actually publicly said that, Politico is just reporting what THEY say more than a dozen people close to them have said Pelosi and Obama think."
I would still laugh at you, and I wouldn't respect that reply, but at least it wouldn't make me say "holy shit you folks are just as big a cult as Trumpism is" while questioning your grasp on reality. You could at least ARGUE the media is lying - "they're compromised?"
WOW. Absolutely BATSHIT.
