Gaslighting only goes so far

Not at all.
The majority of them happen out in the desert, over, under, and through the walls and fences out of sight of Border Patrol.
Nothing has changed out there either.
Yet you attempted to gaslight the board with comparisons to fortified border crossings. You're not the sharpest tool in the shed. LMAO--in a thread decrying gaslighting. You can't make this stuff up.
 
Donald Trump is certainly a mastermind at deception and gaslighting a large enough segment of Americans that his many ruses generally get more traction and wind up with more staying power than they ever should have. One can only argue against reality for so long though before even the densest and most clueless, die-hard Trump voter invariably has to notice that the version of reality being presented to them just isn't matching up with the reality of their lives.
Take the recent jobs report for instance. The numbers just weren't what Trump wanted to hear so he just "solved" the problem by firing the person presenting the data.
That may allow him to "look" better but it still doesn't solve the underlying problem that those poor job numbers reflect.
Tens of thousands of unemployed people across the country (including federal workers and contractors that DOGE fired) know they are unemployed no matter what new magical statistics Trump manufactures in the future and who he chooses to present them.
His gaslighting of the jobs numbers does not change anyone's situation one bit.
It is the same with inflation statistics and his tariffs.
Every Econ 101 student learns that tariff costs wind up just being passed onto consumers like an extra sales tax on the goods and services they purchase.
Trump has been told this by all the economists. Yet he gaslights us that somehow HIS tariffs will be an exception to the rules that govern all OTHER tariffs.
He doesn't know why or how, he just thinks he knows this. He gaslights further by continuing to assure us that "billions and billions of dollars are already pouring in" as a result of his tariffs.
But back here in the real world people still have to go shopping. They still have to open their wallets and purses and pay the person at the register and everytime they do it they can see that prices are going up...not coming down like Trump promised.
And the tariffs just took effect this week. The next set of inflation numbers...the post tariff numbers, are going to be grim.
Trump no doubt will gaslight us on that data as well. He might even go ahead and fire the people responsible for compiling those numbers too; but that's not going to lower prices any.
Eventually, many economists are predicting, Trump's economic malfeasance could lead our economy off a cliff straight into a 1929 style depression.
He'll no doubt attempt to gaslight his way out of accountability for that too. It's not like he can ever admit he's wrong about anything. He just spins...and lies...and spins more...and then lies more.
Recent polling though is indicating that all of Trump's gaslighting might be beginning to wear thin. People are beginning to realize that carnival barking and rhetoric isn't helping them pay their bills and/or find new jobs.
We very well may be reaching a tipping point where the vast majority of American voters, including many who previously voted for him, are starting to realize that Trump's empty gaslighting is not improving their lives at all.

A recent Fox survey showed just 44 percent of Americans support the President's handling of the economy, while a crushing 55 percent disapprove. Even more damaging, six out of 10 Americans point the finger directly at Trump for skyrocketing living costs, according to recent polling data.

I'm seriously disappointed in Trump. He's not cutting the Government enough.
The Fed is the largest employer in the US, how the **** can you loons justify that.

The Government has gone far beyond it's Constitutional mandate it's way past time to cut the Fed back to it's original intent. If you want all those bells and whistles the state you live in can tax the shit out of you for them.

I find it hilariously hypocritical that you are harping on polling numbers and the economy but didn't during the last administration.

Settle down Skippy!
Not once in my post did I talk about numbers of illegal crossings being up or down. I simply stated that nothing has changed on the border.
If you want to live with the illusion that the border is magically more "secure" just because Donald Trump told you it is you go right ahead with your little ol' magic unicorn fantasy.
Trust me...it's the same old border and Donald Trump's magic, new, immigration numbers haven't changed anything one bit.
I'm glad you can sleep better at night though with your new "security" blanket.

Lying again. Illegal border crossings are down, moron. Don't try to gaslight because you're so shallow that you think you'll see it in legal crossing across the Santa Fe St. bridge. I am very familiar with Juarez and El Paso so take your gaslighting down the road.

Whatever you want to believe dude.
It wouldn't be very good gaslighting on your cult's part if twits like you didn't swallow it hook, line, and sinker and feel a false sense of security from it.
Sheeple much Confused American?

Democrat gaslighting doesn't work anymore. Get some new material.

Your whataboutism is tiring.
So how long do yiou think your Fuhrer Trump is going to be able to gaslight you about his tarifflation before you finally go "God, these prices are KILLING me...and it's TRUMP'S fault!"
Probably longer than most I'd imagine.
Your devotion to this grifter wiuld be admirable if it wasn't so pathetic.

LOL, we've been here before. Please link to that. You make a lot of unsubstantiated claims and you're unable to support ANY of them. Inflation is flat. I've only talked to you for a couple days now and you're clearly not informed about current events. Educate yourself.

Uh, Confused American...you just opened your mouth and stuck your foot in it.
Might be time to STFU huh?

Fox Business Host Maria Bartiromo was live on air when the Producer Price Index report for July was released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, revealing that prices for wholesalers rose last month at the fastest pace in three years.

Bartiromo, who typically finds a way to spin bad news in Trump’s favor, bluntly described the reported inflation “spike” as “troubling.”

Economic experts largely agree that Thursday’s report is trouble for the White House.

Opinions are not facts, moron. Newsflash, find some facts and dispense with the hysterical opinions. LMAO. IOW, educate yourself.
 
Trump never fixed a problem in his life. He just exaggerates an issue then lies about how much better it is. Ta da. He just knows that a good portion of Americans are really stupid and cant figure it out or really dishonest and dont care.

Trump fixed the border. Your post was easily destroyed.
 
15th post
MAGA whooped your ass boy. On your knees and beg us not to completely destroy the Dem party!
Who is us? You have as much power as the turd I’m about to flush after I hit “post reply”.

I find it perplexing that the powerless think somehow Trump gives them power and it’s hilarious.
