Trump lost the election Tuesday night when he Gish Galloped with 67 straight lies, pouring from his mouth like a wrathful of flies from the Lord of Lies. He lied over and over and over. The idea is to bury Biden in a load of offal.

What he did was finally make most of America realize he is a load of shit that we all really knew that he was,

"It went on and on, and that was the point. This was not a debate. It was (the felon) using a technique that actually has a formal name, the Gish gallop, although I suspect he comes by it naturally. It’s a rhetorical technique in which someone throws out a fast string of lies, non-sequiturs, and specious arguments, so many that it is impossible to fact-check or rebut them in the amount of time it took to say them. Trying to figure out how to respond makes the opponent look confused, because they don’t know where to start grappling with the flood that has just hit them." Heather Richardson
 
Definitely a Gish Gallop happening, but of course, Biden is far too slow to process what to argue, and what to ignore.



During a Gish gallop, in a short space of time the galloper confronts an opponent with a rapid series of specious arguments, half-truths, misrepresentations, and outright lies that makes it impossible for the opponent to refute all of them within the format of the debate.
