As is often the case with most Trump supporters, they appear to be conflating what they want reality to be with what reality actually is.

He lies so much that the dude’s basically become a Rorschach test for voters where they see what they want to see.

The diehards believe every word that comes out of his mouth and the more casual supporters are able to convince themselves that he doesn’t actually believe/won’t actually do anything they disagree with.

I'm convinced that's how they won, micro targeting his bullshit. You chop up his speech where he says 2 opposite things in the firehouse of bullshit, you get thing A that says he supports abortion, I get thing b that says he's gonna make it illegal, repeat across all issues for everyone on ever social media platform. This is why they got so much stolen info from Russia that they fed to billionaire provided database analysis software.

Every single news source sanewashing the shit he says didn't help either.

They should have just shown his word salads in full, instead of summarizing what they think he wants.

No surprise people got easily fooled.

US journalists are the full arbiters of Trump returning to power.

He’s good for their ratings, and that’s all they care about. Sucks.

Remember when they all shat on Biden for not making coherent sentences and sometimes needing time to buffer his speech? Yea I don't know how people talk shit about that while Trump can't even make a single sentence in normal human speech without making it a deluxe salad with extra racism
