Trump’s lies are not the problem. It’s the millions who swallow them who really matte

Excellent article on trumps followers , the uneducated white christian dying subspecies of America

America's Untermensch


Compulsive liars shouldn’t frighten you. They can harm no one, if no one listens to them. Compulsive believers, on the other hand: they should terrify you. Believers are the liars’ enablers. Their votes give the demagogue his power. Their trust turns the charlatan into the president. Their credulity ensures that the propaganda of half-calculating and half-mad fanatics has the power to change the world.

It's not an excuse you clueless wonder; it is pointing out the blatant hypocrisy of lying liberals like you. I do wish you had a brain.

Wrong again liar; but at least you are a consistent liar. It exposes morons on the left and their glaring hypocrisy. STFU, seriously. You don't get to ignore liars and sexual predators for the last two decades, then suddenly grab the moral high ground. It is stupid, pathetic and weak sauce.

I have to laugh at idiots like you who think there is moral equivalency between locker room talk, and a guy who is banging interns in the White House. That too is stupid, pathetic and weak sauce.

An excellent article. I particularly liked this:

Hannah Arendt described leaders who knew their followers would “believe the most fantastic statements one day, and trust that if the next day they were given irrefutable proof of their falsehood, they would take refuge in cynicism”. She was describing Mussolini, Hitler and Stalin. But her words apply as well to today’s Trump supporters, who gulp down incredible falsehoods and then dismiss the “crooked media” when the stories collapse.


And yet ... the evil threesome were all in their various ways quite smart. Trump is as dumb as dirt. Why the hell do people believe him?

Trumplestilskins are a cult. They are believers and outsiders just don't understand. They have special handshakes and clothes they wear that make them special, more special than anyone has ever been in the history of man. Trump busts the needle in lies, but to Trumpys, they are their own language. In their world, Trumps lles just do not matter. you outsiders don't understand and cannot. I can find a mistake Obama made, that means all Trumps lies are the same. Obama did not declare war against Putin over interfering in the election. that means he was sactioning it. So the Trumpettes and the left are the same. Trump hosted a reality show. What is better proof he knows how to run a country?
