For Trumpists, there is no desire for truth, fact or even reality anymore. The only concern seems to be creating an “alternate reality” of transforming news and facts into “fake news” and “alternative facts” when convenient.
We saw it with the birtherism movement that was started by Trump. He basically said, Let’s just say that Barrack Hussein Obama was born in some Muslim country, and is actually a Muslim and wasn’t born in this country… regardless of the fact that he was born in Hawaii and is a Christian.
That is how telling lies become “alternative facts” in Trump World… lies that he knows many people will want to believe, so anyone or anything saying otherwise is just “fake news.” So all they need to do is demand to see his birth certificate, and if they do have or see a birth certificate, they just call it fake.
Catch and kill any embarrassing or inconvenient facts or stories about himself… while creating false stories about his opponents, including Ted Cruz, a fellow “Republican” no less. Sadly, Republicans no longer exist. It is now the Party of Trump.
So for Donald Trump, he should be able to shoot someone on Fifth Avenue and no one should care… not a judge, or jury or Supreme Court. No one.
For Donald Trump, no one should care if he grabs or rapes women.
For Donald Trump, no one should care that he commits business fraud, evades taxes or violates laws that others are supposed to abide by and be held accountable.
Fast forward to today. Now we have a Supreme Court that is actually considering whether a president should have some level of immunity from criminal acts s/he may commit while in office? Because by decree of Donald Trump, he should have total immunity as President for “official acts” that are crimes for anyone else. Official act… of committing a crime.
Welcome to the age of Trumpism.
