It's 50/50 on this possibility. There's an interview trending right now where the host is repeating to the 47th resident that "no what you say is not true, the evidence was faked/photoshopped" (and DJT had nothing to say beyond "why are you not saying yes to me, I'm potentially making you promoted and you're not being nice enough to me"). Chances are that people see that there are no clothes and won't bend over to sustain the lies.

That was a mind breaking interview fwiw. It really seems like the right wing is unable to keep track of the lies, and are self deluded by their ecosystem.

What do you expect to happen when you have a compulsive liar say whatever is on his mind and then an entire ecosystem repeating what he said as if it were fact.


They don't need to keep track of the lies. That's part of the power of flooding the zone. It also helps because there is always something their supporters can point to that they like. It literally doesn't matter how contradictory the statements are. These are people who elected someone who promised both massive tariffs and to lower the prices on goods.

They tried to make a 3rd reich sequel but like all sequels, it's not selling well.
