Try as I do to stay ahead of the public policy curve, it continues to boggle my occasionally thick-skulled noggin just how Donald Trump continues to manipulate the MAGA cult that follows him off the cliff and into the sewer.<\/p>\n

I told a dear friend today that Trump’s duplicity and hypocrisy seems to go over the vacuous heads of the MAGAites who think the guy is the best thing in politics since pockets on shirts.<\/p>\n

Consider two elements in this moron’s narrative. Fake news and “rigged elections.”<\/p>\n

He routinely blasts the media for putting “fake news” into print and on the air. And yet … this the very dimwit who fomented the former Big Lie about Barack Obama’s place of birth. He rode that pony until he realized, I reckon, that it was no longer useful to him. He accused Obama of being from Kenya and, thus, was constitutionally ineligible to run for president.<\/p>\n

I shook my head in disbelief … not so much that he kept saying it but at the cult’s willingness to buy into it. They weren’t smart enough to call the dipsh** out on his lie.<\/p>\n

Now for the rigged election. He said the 2020 result that elected Joe Biden over Trump was “rigged.” He said it was corrupt. He sicced the mob on the Capitol on Jan. 6 to stop the peaceful transfer of power to the Biden administration.<\/p>\n

And yet … here he is four years later plotting to rig this very election through the use of 2020 election deniers holding key state and local election offices.<\/p>\n

What’s more, he still won’t commit categorically to accepting the 2024 election results even if Kamala Harris defeats him soundly.<\/p>\n

Politicians generally are thought to shade the truth on occasion, I get it. This guy? I cannot believe a single, solitary sentence that pours out of his overfed pie hole as the truth.<\/p>\n

Trump is the embodiment of fake news and rigged elections.<\/em> We must not forget that when we troop to our polling stations later this year.<\/p>\n\n
