We are living in a post-Truth world and have been for some time now. Long before Karl Rove uttered his derisive comment in 2003 about the "reality-based community" and how Republicans simply create their own realities, Republicans realized they could gain political power by simply lying.
They've been doing for 50 years now, since Nixon was forced to reign and Republicans decided they would never let that happen again and would absolutely, at every turn, place their Party and their pursuit of power above Country at each and every turn. It was a slow process at first, but now Republicans, as a whole, do nothing but Lie.
Since, then we've had absolutely monstrous Republican administrations and Congress. Ronnie Raygun's criminal Iran-Contra affair, Newt Gingrich's Contract on America, George W(orst Ever) warcrimes in Iraq and Afghanistan and then the utter temerity of Republicans under Obama's Presidency making claims "We had no terrorist attacks under President Bush".
The Corporate Media, for their part has played a disastrous role, as they have taken the position that BothSides are too blame for everything and if a Republican lies and a Democrat tells the truth it's their solemn duty to present both sides of the argument as equally valid. Worse still, when Republicans engage in a non-stop Gish Gallop of lies, as Traitor Trump did in the debate, the Corporate Media believes it is their somber responsibility to present those lies as factual. Truth is Irrelevant.
Trump being a master conman recognized the conservative voting base was ripe to be plucked by just the right Grifter. And so Trump simply walked up to conservatives and told them to be their worst selves, took credit for everything, and declared everything he did was the Greatest. As a corollary to this he threatened violence and death against anyone who opposed him. At first some Republicans were against Trump whom they saw as too vulgar but, as Republicans became aware of the spell Trump cast upon rightwingers they embraced him fully and jettisoned all the so-called beliefs, morals, and principles they had paid lip service too for years but, in reality never embodied.
On the Left, everyone knows in response to Ronnie Raygun's criminal Regime Democrats adopted the Clintonian Third Way, which worked to build a conservative Democratic Party but, one that had a definitive shelf-life as conservatives began to realize instead of voting third way they could have raw bloody racism which fulfilled their hatred of the other in a way the broad coalition of minorities who comprise the Democratic Party could not. Meanwhile, disaffected Progressives and The Left (more broadly) declared if Democrats merely passed legislation that helped people, the people would vote for them. But, that's not how voting works. The left also proclaimed that good economic policies from elected Democrats would result in poor and rural white people voting for them instead of against their own economic interests. And yet again that is not how voting works.
The ACA (Obamacare) wasn't good enough. Joe Biden capped the price of Insulin, eliminated Student Debt, got us out of Afghanistan, ended the Drone program protected Unions, passed Infrastructure bills and it didn't matter because, again, Truth is Irrelevant.
What the Left never understood was white people in voting for increasingly fascist Republicans and increasingly racist Republicans and increasingly plutocratic Republicans were voting for what they wanted. Republican voters want a bigoted, rich, racist asshole who stomps on people. Trump is exactly that. For 50 years, they've been taught their enemies were the immigrants, the gays, feminists, the snotty elitist liberals, and that's exactly who they hate and exactly who they want rounded up and executed.
Trump and the Project 2025 promises exactly this.All that matters is the Narrative. Trump saw this, which is why he takes credit for everything even while he's done Nothing. I assume the 2024 RNC will be similar to the 2004 one, in which Republicans stood up and declared anyone opposed to George W. Bush loves Saddam Hussein, Al Qaeda and 9/11 while they shamelessly waved the bloody shirt. The bloodied Face of Trump will be everywhere and Republicans will declare anyone who doesn't support Trump loves assassinations (oh and Joe Biden was responsible for the white male, registered Republican wearing obscure conservative gun nut apparel), Truth is Irrelevant.
If Elizabeth Warren can identify as American Indian, Kamala Harris as black, Dylan Mulvaney as a woman, and Joe Biden as coherent and lucid, then I'm not worried about the dead shooter identifying as Republican.
ReplyDeleteUno Reverse card, you liberal twat.
Your handle should be "Sub" because of your abject prostration in front of your false idol. But, I won't shame the BDSM community by claiming you as a member. You suck and are dumb.
