22. They rationalize his lies

Because they have been brainwashed since birth to ignore reality and believe what pre-chosen authority figures have told them to do.

It's called religion, and believing what Dear Leader says without question is one of its logical outcomes. Doesn't matter if Dear Leader is the sky daddy or his agent on earth or whoever they seem to favor. Any of those authority figures can do the thinking for them, so they don't have to. Doesn't matter what he (and it's always a he) said in the past. If they say it, you believe it, no matter what.

And so they fall right into line, like always.
