Its a variant of the New Jersey Arabs celebrating 9/11 meme.

Or the Socialist Muslim Kenyan Obama tale. Or the pedophile pizza parlor. Or the Benghazi lies. No amount of logic or evidence will sway them because they WANT it to be true. Its what allows them to think the way they WANT to think, but for a more acceptable, more politically correct reason.

The Deplorabls want to be pissed off, they need the rage, it justifies their hatred. They want to be outraged. He has to tell them something to keep them at a fever pitch, and they can't wait to hear it. They will believe anything he says, and any evidence against it is dismissed as "fake news" or Liberal Lies.

Its like trying to debate the theory of evolution with a Southern Baptist. Believe me, I've done that. I've been there. I know these people. I was brought up around them and I know how they think.

These are a simple, unsophisticated, even primitive people. They are easily misled and difficult to instruct. But they are not the problem. The real problem is those who know better, but say nothing, and look the other way, because they know their cultural, economic and political interests are being furthered by the lies.
