How Trump gets away with his BS. [View all]

First, the myth of a Unitary Executive. Not only ignoring but decrying the constitutional Separation of Powers.

Next: Overriding the Will of the People by controlling a majority of their representatives and lambasting his adversaries in government and the media.

Next: Overriding the Constitution and centuries of legal precedence with his handpicked SCOTUS justices. For decades, Republicans called this judicial activism. But when Trump does it, it's "correcting past mistakes".

Next: When speaking on the Record, he lies. Prevaricates. Employs outrageous mendacity. And says it with all sincerity. And doesn't put up the evidence for his claims.

Next: Also relies on Logical Fallacies. These are the devices used when one is going to lose a logical argument. The fallacies detract and dismiss the premise(s) altogether as well as the strong argument being built to support those suppositions. Claims become facts. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fallacies
And he relies on MAGA and the "uneducated" being unable to tell the difference between facts and fallacies. Example: if Trumps says it, it must be true. He is the undenied authority. They don't have to think; they only have to believe.

And then there's FOX, that bolsters these "strategies" by echoing Trump's raison d'être.
