Tornado Alley (PROG)

It doesn't work that way anymore. The only time he's on the air now is a Fox or newsmax gig and even then they start to cut him off when he goes into derangement mode, which is becoming an everyday occurrence. I'm not sure what networks you are watching. His campaign has devolved into a pity party tour full of the same misinformation and fear mongering he's been repeating for 9 years now and his stories are better suited for a dark corner in the basement of a retirement home.

But you go on and keep telling yourself that we're all the ones who are certifiable, if it makes you feel better.

This isn’t run-of-the-mill political spin, the kind of statistic-twisting and accomplishment-exaggerating that political candidates of all stripes engage in. Rather, the Republican presidential nominee is telling colorful lies that are completely untethered to reality.

Challenged in any way, Trump’s first reaction is not to survey the facts and knit them into a compelling argument. Rather it is simply to make-up a bald-faced lie.

That’s not a desirable character trait in a six-year-old or in a president.

Trump is also frighteningly gullible, seemingly unable to distinguish trustworthy sources of information from highly questionable ones.
Trump accepted Sen. JD Vance’s (R-Ohio) story about Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, eating pets because, “I’ve seen people on television.”

That the Republican mayor, the Republican governor, the city manager and the police chief all maintain the allegations have no merit means nothing to Trump because, “I’ve seen people on television.”

The fact that the lies he’s spewing are causing tremendous harm to Springfield’s residents is- seemingly irrelevant for Trump because, “I’ve seen people on television.”
