They need to be de-programmed and you can't just release the whole truth for them at once or they will all snap.
look how long it took to teach America that Nixon was a crook.
We have to take Republicans through the political equivalent of the 5 Stages of Grief: denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance.
You saw the 93% love him poll from CPAC right?
Long road to acceptance.
A great con man leaves a sucker fleeced that thanks him for the opportunity.
