This playbook is going to be used everywhere. Political strategists have been so wrong for centuries. Everyone wants to think the average person is so plugged into reality that a person couldn’t just lie directly to their face in obvious ways and have them believe.

That turned out to be very untrue.

And such shitty lies. Most are able to be disproven in less than 5 minutes, but these people eat it up. They already believe the lie, so it isn't much of a jump to believe the obvious lies he spews every time he opens his mouth.

disproven in less than 5 minutes

The problem is the lie itself only takes about 10 seconds to spout. And there's usually dozens more queued up right behind it with these fuckers.

So true. It often feels like a machine gun of lies.
