Trump sociopathic ranting is part of the Big Lie syndrome infecting his party

...he's the primary carrier.




...I don't believe they're as disassociated from the truth as it appears. This is the Big Lie strategy which has dominated the republican party since Trump's utter depravity sent their pols into deep denial about the Putin-loving megalomaniac who obligingly acquiesces to every line of their anti-democratic, anti-American, corporate wish list.

They know the truth, they just don't feel any compunction against denying it with impunity- and with virtually zero consequences for their actions, they see no reason at all to stop.

... down ballot by the left in Germany.

Of course at the time the left in Germany didn't think it was a big deal seeing at most the NAZIs had a plurality and not a majority in their parliament as they did.

That plurality meant their guy was the succession plan Trumps campaign on the other hand worked with the Russians in multiple levels including giving the Russians campaign data and having the Russians run adds via SM in swing states.

Trump is worse than Hitler on getting to power
