Trump is pathetic as are his rubes , bed wetter and pants crappers, peddling fear, it works well with the uneducated but thankfully there are not enough of them to put trump in the white house
Fear is a powerful instinct. Fear is so potent, and the innate drive to protect one’s self from harm is so overpowering, that it can override almost every other instinct, including those related to intellect and judgment.
Which is why Donald Trump desperately wants to frighten you.
The obvious problem with the Republican presidential nominee’s convention speech last night is that it was less a speech and more a series of strung together scary falsehoods. In the actual United States, crime rates have dropped, but Trump insists they’ve increased. In our reality, illegal border crossings have fallen, but in Trump’s mind, they’ve skyrocketed.
For those who care about facts, the United States has fairly low tax rates among industrialized democracies, but in Trump’s version of reality, “America is one of the highest-taxed nations in the world.” The truth is that the killing of police officers in the line of duty is down, but Trump nevertheless wants you to believe the exact opposite. In reality, Iran is not even close to the path to nuclear weapons. In Trump’s mind, “Iran is on the path to nuclear weapons.”
Early on in his speech, the GOP nominee declared, “[H]ere, at our convention, there will be no lies. We will honor the American people with the truth, and nothing else.” Trump then lied in literally the next sentence.
For more along these lines, I’d encourage readers to check out many of the detailed fact-checkingpieces that were published overnight.
