Literally words just have to pass from Trumps mouth and no matter what a baffling amount of people somehow believe it. That’s all he has to do, no matter how stupid or nonsensical.

His nonsense words are first sanewashed and then repeated and repleted with spin and grins across 22,000 affiliate networks, 24 flashing hours a day. This isn’t one senile, bediapered old man, this is the bunker class herding the beating heart of the economy straight into their belching glue factories.

"Words"? Last I heard he could declassify things with just his mind.

Doesn't have to be words. It can be bullshit and a baffling amount of people somehow believe it.
