Perfect description of Trump

I think the answer lies in the fact he promised to do things we wanted done and did them

Trump will promise anything to anybody if he thinks there are votes in it.

This is what first alerted me to his shtick: early in the 2016 campaign he told some 9/11 “truthers” that he would reveal the Truth if he was elected.

Well, he was elected and he never said another word about it. But he may have persuaded some gaslit “truthers” to vote for him.

Btw, I’m not a “truther” and neither is Trump. He was just fishing for votes.

All of us, you included, have seen media coverage of the nation's chief attention whore -- #TRE45ON -- for literally decades. The smarter ones of us citizens figured out long ago what would happen if the sleazebag grifter ever made it into public office.

Turns out, we were right all along. YOU, on the other hand, were the suckers that P.T. Barnum famously said (according to myth) are born every minute.

Your hatred aside there's no denying America was far better off with Trump than with Biden. A booming economy and stock market along with energy independence,low gasoline prices and low inflation compared to what we have now with Biden.

There has never been a day when Trump was in office where America was even slightly better off than America has been with Biden as president. You poor, deluded Trump morons simply cannot see that.

Okay. That happens.

How about this day.


"The day Biden first set foot in the Oval Office a year ago, real GDP was growing at 6.3 percent, inflation was 1.4 percent, the price of gasoline was $2.39 a gallon and Michigan’s consumer sentiment index stood at 79. Today, real growth has slowed to just over 2 percent, inflation is at 7 percent, gas is up to $3.31 a gallon and the Michigan Index is 68.8.

In addition, real wages dropped 2.4 percent over the past year, with inflation overwhelming pay hikes after several years of gains under President Trump. "

A very good and short read....



It's one of the few reasons I have found that begin to explain how someone as fucked up as Trump could have so many devout followers. The other classic and master gaslighter in history was Adolph Hitler. Someone capable of making people with weak minds question reality to then exert power or control over them.

Sounds just like Joke Biden to me... He's always coming up with easily detected lies and wild stories about shit in his past. His latest about having cancer and windshields covered in oil slicks is total bullshit. You know when he's shitting you with some totally made up lie of a story too. He says, "It's no joke, man." Or he says, "I'm being serious!" Biden fuller of shit than a 10-year-old septic tank that's never been pumped.

He uses these stories usually to try to sell some political goal or another too. That makes it--by the article's standard--nothing but gaslighting. Worse, when his bullshit is pointed out he becomes angry and vindictive against the person that did it. Joke doesn't like his bullshit questioned...

It looks like what you call an attack, I call the truth.

There is no doubt Trump used, and still does use, lies and distortion to get his base to deny reality. He has since the Obama birth certificate bullshit. That is the definition of gaslighting.

And, I see it’s working on you.

I agree to some extent. We DO fear a would-be dictator who would wipe the floor with the Constitution if there was something in it for him. All freedom-loving people rightfully fear fascism and those who would exploit it. Obviously that doesn't include you Cultists.

ESPECIALLY in a second term with no worry about a future election. Many claimed that trump was about to go scorched Earth if he won.

Trump’s false or misleading claims total 30,573 over 4 years

And here you are pointing the finger at Biden for lies.
