Truthiness in retreat
"Thus, depicting Covid as a hoax, then just another flu, then treatable by drinking poison, Trump lies demonized expert witnesses, tested judgments and scientific models. You can’t lie your way out of a contagion, nor substitute bad faith for vaccine cures. That rightwing blowhards now suddenly see the vaccination light speaks to desperation: their voters are suffering, dying or leaving the tent of crazies. Expect similar reversals on election fraud claims or the delusion mushy Democrats are radical socialists.
In short, as the world’s worst liar, the more outrageous the Trump’s fabrications, the more obvious the rashness to outdo last week’s whopper, again employing trickery over common sense. If anything undermines the Republican Party, it is undying loyalty to Trump – and the longer it lasts, the greater the damage. Overall, nothing pulverizes GOP bluster about “America exceptionalism” more than the onerous Trump still heading a national party. Here’s a lawless incompetent who failed to run a law-abiding family syndicate, let alone government, without criminal activity. What makes America much less great than a twice-impeached, multiply-disgraced failure leading the pack for a 2024 nomination? Bookies may have to start taking bets on a third impeachment.
That palpable grossness, let alone indictments, have not banished Trump speaks to the self-destructive nature of his electorate. For the “base,” no other savior exists and they seem willing to go down with the ship. No Democrat (or outsider) could do to Trump gangsterism what it does to itself. Rest assured, Trump will badly lie until no longer a public figure."
