First of all, any charge against him is false. It is the radicals on the left that are lying about him.
He calls into FOX and other right-wing outlets to express his innocence.
He pretends it never happened at all. Anybody that contradicts him is a liar and has deep personality flaws.
He could not get away with anything if he did not have his own propaganda network willing to spread his lies and propaganda. No matter how serious the charge, he shrugs it off as nothing but his political opponents going after him. He ignores all evidence and blatantly lies to support his innocence. FOX News is always willing to support and report on his version of events.
Those that challenge him do not have the "courage" to do the "right thing". The "right thing" is whatever is in the interest of Donald Trump. Those willing to break the laws and go along with Trump's schemes are "great" Americans. Those that disagree are anti-American.
Rinse and repeat. Run it thru the propaganda machine.
Nothing is ever fully exposed. Thru propaganda and partisan division, it is all filed in the "it never happened" and anyway, they deserved it.

(9,670 posts)While witnesses swear their testimony on an oath and are grilled by Congress for hours, Trump picks up his cellphone and taps out a reply THAT IS GIVEN EQUAL CREDENCE AND PUBLICITY as the sworn testimony by the media.
In other words, he gets to rebut statements without ever walking into a courtroom or tribunal.
The media is at the epicenter of Trump's ability to "get away with it".
