(82,849 posts)Also, make the point that not even President Trump believes the wild story he's peddling. If Trump truly thought this was one of the biggest scandals of all time, wouldn't he be exerted every bit of power he could to expose it and bring it to an end? Instead, he's off for another long weekend of golf, watching TV, and rage-tweeting.
Popular media: You don't have to repeat Trump's fictions as if they were true. Trump doesn't think they're true, either.

(82,849 posts)But I think the Democrats should make a stink about it anyway. The media are quite fond of tracking down those economically anxious working class white people to talk with them about their everlasting love for Trump. What might they have to say about a liar so lazy he can't be bothered to even look like he buys his own bullshit?

(51,584 posts)The cabinet is getting rich off of him so they would never use the 25th Amend. The GOP in both chambers are getting richer off of him so no impeachment and conviction.
Our govt is owned by everyone and every business but the average, American citizen who does not put the almighty dollar above all else.
The crazy, demented TRAITOR needs a real hero to take him down to the loony bin in a straight jacket.

(11,730 posts)His facts are completely wrong. The Democratic Party was not in "absolute power" during the election. No party is ever in "absolute power" even when they control majorities in the legislative and executive branches. The Democrats had the presidency while the Republicans held both houses of Congress so on its face, the claim is false. Also, the idea that the Democrats put spies into the Trump campaign is ridiculous and likely projection. Law Enforcement was already monitoring Russian activity and Trump's people were there trying to make deals with those Russians. Trump knows he is guilty so he has to deflect and project.
Trump lives in absolutes. He taps into the binary thinking that is prevalent in the conservative mindset.
A relative of mine posted sarcastically regarding Rachel Dolezal that "welfare fraud doesn't happen, it's a myth" because to a conservative it has to be happening or not happening at all. There is no nuance.
He is a demagogue and his followers eat it up.
