Reading the quote, It doesn’t seem like that huge of a win.
Trump lies so often that him accidentally telling the truth seems like random chance.
I wish I remembered where I read it so I could attribute it, but I saw someone describe Trump not as a liar but as a bullshitter. It’s not that he lies. It’s that he has no regard, one way or another, for whether what he is saying is a lie or not. He simply has a thought and recites it. It’s so effortless for him to lie because, from his perspective, it’s the same as telling the truth. If this is true, the pattern you’ve identified could be merely chance based on the probability that any random thought a person has is more likely to be wrong than right when they are incapable of learning new information.
I didn’t feel like I was doing it justice, so I found the sauce…from fucking 2015. https://newrepublic.com/article/124803/donald-trump-not-liar
Damn, nice pull of an older article! This was when I was trying to wrap my head around our evolving political stage, as well as still getting used to many little things that’ve always been here.
Anyway back then I was reading basically everything and I remember this article!
Happy cake day and thanks for all the fish.
I would have sworn it was an article from this election cycle, but hey, that’s the brain for you…not nearly as reliable as we’d like to believe.
Nowhere close. Reliable memory is a matter of seconds, so eye witness reports have never been useful neither have first hand accounts been fully accurate. We’re goldfish.
Every Trump follower until this blows over
I’m honestly worried about the fanatisism surrounding US politics.
From the outside it looks downright horrifying.
Trust me, it’s much more horrifying from the inside

That day was one of the few times a revisited 4chan since being an edgy teen. I knew they’d have a downloadable clip posted. Saved, just in case
