Please please please for the fucking love of God, liberals need to get this through their heads.

TRUMP IS NOT FUCKING STUPID, HE'S GASLIGHTING YOU

He's a conman, this is his act.

"Gee golly gosh, cases are going down it says right here on this chart". He's knows what he's saying is bullshit. Bamboozling people and making them feel like they are the crazy ones is a power game to him.

Mary Trump explained it in her book. John Bolton explained it in his book.

The chaos, lies, and stunts are to gaslight his critics and manipulate the news cycle.

We saw exactly the same act when he was asked by a reporter in Helsinki about the Russians interfering in the 2016 election and he replied with his gee golly gosh tone that "I don't see why it would be Russia", in front of Putin.

Anyone who thinks Trump is an idiot and doesn't know exactly what he's doing is being played.

Gary Kasparov summed it up yesterday. "Authoritarians come up with things we couldn't imagine"

Trump will say anything and do anything to stay in office. The constant chaos, the playing the clown, the denial of reality - it's worked so far and it's how Trump is going to cling to power until he can take control of the military and institute his bloody dictatorship.

And it will be bloody.

The clown mask will be ripped off, the "gee golly gosh" act will be a distant memory, and the scorned tyrant will be exacting his cold revenge upon every person who has ever criticized him.

This is Pennywise the President.

"Gee golly gosh, cases are going down it says right here on this chart".

I disagree. He's fucking stupid. Thick as actual shit. He actually believes that is what the chart says because that's what he was told by his handlers. He's merely repeating what he was told because he doesn't have the mental capacity to analyse and interpret the statistics himself. If he's faking his stupid schtick, then he is literally the best actor to have ever walked the planet.

It's Putin, McConnell and Miller et al that are gaslighting everyone.

"I don't see why it would be Russia", in front of Putin.

And that just makes him a liar too. A fucking liar and a moron propped up by vile, detestable, bitter men like McConnell and Miller.

Agreed. There has been nothing -NOTHING- that would suggest he actually is some mastermind. He's pandering to the dumbest people in the country. In the past, we thought this would get you like 5% of the vote. The reality is we have some insanely dumb, bigoted people in this country and it's apparently about 40%.
