How does Trump get away with it? Let's remember what Karl Rove said

[Xipe Totec]

"That's not the way the world really works anymore. We're an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you're studying that reality—judiciously, as you will—we'll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that's how things will sort out. We're history's actors … and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do."

Trump has applied this principle with steroids.

We are so busy chasing down yesterday's ten scandals that we forget the hundreds that came before. Meanwhile he's creating ten new scandals to distract us from what we were scandalized about just yesterday.

It is Gish-galloping reality.

1. I seriously doubt Robert Mueller has forgotten anything.

2. Exactly, they've been creating their own reality for a long time,

even before rover, and doing it very successfully.

Dems have never come up with a successful way to address it.

3. That kind of arrogance will crash and burn, just as Rove did on national TV that night...

after his attempt to steal the election fizzled before the nation's eyes.

trump and his band of crooks will too.

4. Only for his minority.

We don't really know the number because we don't know what Russia did. Some of us can handle the real world, it doesn't always have to be about ourselves. We're adults, can deal.
