unconstitutional, the full impact of the "Trump Principle" bludgeons your conscience into insensibility.
Lying is no longer called wrong or immoral or dishonest or any of those "judgmental" terms. With a shameless arrogance that would make Big Brother envious, those who adopt the Trump Principle are free to simply redefine "quaint" notions like right, wrong, facts, truth---any previously respected quality that now seems inconvenient. If you are able to win, how you won doesn't matter at all.
Saying that something is so---makes it so. Therefore, the number of Americans shot with assault rifles is "infinitismally small" because---well, that's what Judge Benitez said to support his position that there was no reason to ban these rifles.
So, you see, the Trump Principle can be very useful---if you are just shameless enough to use it.
