That reflects a tried and true Nazi tactic in the Big Lie. Of course, you tell big lies and repeat them until they gain traction. The bigger the lie, often, the more impact it can have.

Then you constantly blame the opposition for what you are doing and don't let up. The low-information voters are easily influenced by that kind of propaganda in this country. It works to some degree.

The TRUMPGOP is reading from the playbook. Too bad that there are many people who are vulnerable and gullible, otherwise it wouldn't work well and the TRUMPGOP would not be able to rely on it so much.

I always edit, mentally, what the TRUMPGOP say about anything and just consider it a revelation of their plans and actions.

you are saying he is blaming the dems for everything that he announces on tv every day that he is trying to do? "I am working as hard as possible to do these things but the dems are making me do it." What a piece of shit.
