Show me a politician who doesn't lie. You can't. So why should I or anyone hold Trump to a higher standard than any other Politician is held to?
That's the fly in the buttermilk so to speak. The truth is that both the Republicans, and the Democrats put forth their worst candidates for President in 2016. Hillary lost to the Republicans in Polling, she did better against Trump than she did with any of the "serious" candidates except perhaps Jeb. Trump did better against Hillary than he did head to head with just about anyone you care to mention. That includes Bernie.
The reality was both sides put forth horrifically polarizing candidates. Hillary was hated by the Right, and Trump is hated by the Left. Not disliked, not disagreed with, but actually hated. I'd been a loyal Democratic Voter since 1988, and I could not bring myself to even contemplate voting for Hillary.
But back to the lies. That's the funny thing about the Democrats in this last election, and since. Democrats take Trump Literally, but not seriously. Republican voters took him seriously, but not literally. They assume he's doing a good job if the Democrats are out there at least twice a day screaming about how awful Trump is.
Want to see his support evaporate? Shut up about him. That is about all it would take. If the media and the rest of the left would shut the fuck up for about two weeks, then the supporters would start to assume that Trump was doing what the media wanted and the support would drop. The Left can't do this of course. They would rather eat a raw turd than not spend every waking moment screaming about how awful Trump is.
Oh, I know the lies. He said he would release his taxes. He hasn't. So? Are you telling me that is a disqualifying act? We know he's rich. Are you suggesting that people would be disgusted when they found out he used lawyers, accountants, and former IRS agents to make sure he saved every dime he could on taxes? Like every other god damned rich person in the nation?
That's the problem. The confirmed lies are actually pretty small, and the alleged lies tend to fall apart like the CNN story attempting to prove some collusion.
Now, I've given you the secret to destroy Trump. Shut the fuck up, and do nothing for about two weeks. Or go out and talk about how awesome some of his policy actions would be. Giving Missile Systems to Poland to defend against Russia. Hey, great job Donald. You can't do it. No one on the left can. No one on the left can go a day without spitting out some hatred towards Trump. Don't feel bad though. I sincerely doubt that those on the right could remain silent for a day if Hillary had been elected.
