Trump has always lived in a world of alternative facts.

He can bend reality to his will and make it real by saying it enough. He knows more science than CDC and more law than the Supreme Court. That has (always) been his SOP. 'I alone can fix it.' It's a dimension of wild delusions in which he can never be a loser. But it can't be a delusion if it's real. And a president can make it so.

In his dotage he seems to be departing for outer space. Joe Biden died in 2020, so Krasnov never lost an election to the man, only to nefarious stand ins? THAT is his latest dreamworld fix for losing in 2020? We live in interesting times.

In the moment. He cannot understand or needs truth. This is an awful type of person to be a leader
