Current Events » in reply to How did Trump know Putin was smiling?

Delusional people 'know' all sorts of things...

The disturbing thing is everyone that voted for him knew that he was delusional to some degree before they cast their vote... they simply found his delusional views comforting...

Rob, TB, Frank, etc- they all knew that Trump spouted lies, some of them admitted as much on this board before they went into hiding- its just that they felt the lies advanced their agendas, so they voted for the fiction.

They accepted the lies about thousands of American Muslims cheering as the twin towers fell, because it advanced their desire to discriminate against muslims.

They accepted his lies about south american immigrants and asylum seekers because it justified their blatant bigotry against them.

They accepted his lies about his Russian dealings because the alternative is to admit they were willing collaborators in treason.

We have surpassed 10,000 lies from this president, and his followers have not flinched yet- they will swallow his bullshit with a grin on their faces and happily ask for more.

Because when lies are all you have to justify your beliefs, you will die before you question them... you will cage children and separate them permanently from their parents, allow journalists to be butchered, kill any number of innocents before questioning the lies...

They have let themselves be dragged so low that they now have no choice but to keep going- because admitting what they have let themselves become, and how easy it was for them to throw away their 'values' would be worse than death for them.
