Common Good Politics - Projection

Doug Pagitt and Rob Ryerse discuss Matt Gaetz, Josh Dugger, Trump, and why many conservative Republicans and Christians turn a blind eye to sexual abuse in their own ranks while lobbing wild, unfounded conspiracy theories of pedophilia against Democrats. There's a word for accusing someone else of the thing you're trying to cover up: projection.
