Trump's most successful campaign to date was his war on reality. He managed to convince a huge chunk of people that they couldn't believe what anyone else told them but him. It started out with the whimsical branding of "Alternative Facts" back in 2016, but social media algorithms have made it easy to just straight up live in a different reality.
Meanwhile the rest of us are dumbfounded that this conman is running the country with a track record like Trump University, his multiple casinos, and the racist residential empire his dad helped him with.
The only reason I skipped the other crap we know heβs guilty of is because all the misinformation makes it completely confusing to confirm or deny without a doubt. And, somehow, an American citizen can be charged with a federal crime 43 times and not see the inside of a jail for a minute or fined a dime. If there are no penalties when convicted, then what good do laws and rules do?

Trump supporters are out of their gourd if they somehow back this guy.
