    My hot take is that these lies are for the undecideds that hate politics, didn’t watch the debate, and only catch a few snippets a week about what is going on.

    He hopes that these people catch his bullshit Cliffs notes before heading into the ballot box.

    They didn’t see the debate, so try to get snippets out on social media that tells them about the debate you wished happened.

      Bingo. If he repeats the same bullshit enough publicly, more and more dumb people will catch it and just go with it.

      These dumb fucks aren’t known for their research skills.

        I think you’re giving Trump way too much credit. I honestly don’t think that there is any reason to what he does or says.

          Exactly. He lies so much to inflate his “greatness” that it’s just a habit at this point. It’s never mattered to his base whether the things he said are true or not, never any consequences to him lying, so he just does it at every opportunity. If he was telling you that he took a dump, he’d add something like “…and all the people in the bathroom were very impressed - they’d never seen such a great dump before. They were cheering.”
