Trump, Republicans and the Gaslighting of America - We Need To Fight Back
gas·light (verb) - manipulate (someone) by psychological means into questioning their own sanity.
"in the first episode, Karen Valentine is being gaslighted by her husband"
The Trump campaign and the Republican party are gaslighting America with the assistance of the corporate MSM. They repeatedly tell lies, then deny that they said these lies.
1. That Trump called climate change a Chinese hoax.
2. That Trump entertained the idea of spreading nuclear weapons.
3. That bragging about grabbing a woman by the genitals is just locker room talk.
4. That Trump did not sexually harass women by engaging in the type of conduct that he has repeatedly bragged about.
5. That the Republican party is not trying to suppress the vote by minorities.
6. That Trump can't show his tax returns because he is under audit.
7. That the election is rigged against Republicans.
8. That the American people should speak with respect to the next Supreme Court Justice, then saying that if Hillary is elected, they will simply refuse to appoint a Supreme Court Justice over the next four years.
The list goes on and on, but too often Republicans are given a free pass. Conversely, Republican are allowed to peddle any number of right wing conspiracies with little push back from the media.
In the end, this is abusive and harmful to America and it has lead to the situation we are in now where Donald Trump has a legitimate shot to win the Presidency. The fact that a major poll would find Trump, a serial liar, more honest than Hillary Clinton illustrates the failure of our MSM. While Trump and the rest of the Republican party has gaslighted America, the MSM, has been an eager instrumentality for such abuse.
