The way it influenced the 2018 election where the Republicans lost the house was telling. Constantly informing likely Republican voters that a win was guaranteed then disappearing around six weeks before the election. So present and posting in order to prevent any sense of concern and planning from taking place then disappearing for roughly six weeks to avoid building enthusiasm among the Q faithful. Then the Republicans lose the House and may not regain it in my lifetime. The timing was perfect for hurting America, not for helping it.
