    It’s called DARVO. He learned it from Roy Cohn.

    The reality is that Donald Trump — like narcissists and psychopaths everywhere — is a practitioner, a devotee, of DARVO. DARVO refers to behavior by a wrong-doer after they’ve been called out for their misdeed: “Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender.” Simply put, it means that once confronted, an abuser will vigorously deny it and claim to be the actual victim. “I know you are, but what am I?!”

    Always was. It’s how he got elected. Go way back to his debates with Hillary.

    Trump: the system’s rigged

    Hillary: you don’t pay taxes

    Trump: it’s because I’m smart. Your friends & donors use the same rigged system

    Also, the system is still just as rigged.

    Maybe not exactly related to the original post, but do we REALLY know whether anyone has seen Trump’s ACTUAL birth certificate? The REAL one, not that countrfeit one that FOX News threw together some years ago? I’m just asking questions

      The 2024 election is about to heat up, so it’s important to reiterate this kind of thing.

    It muddies the water of any discussion and forces focus on others. If everyone does it, it’s not wrong, right?

    Obviously that conclusion is false, but from the lack of consequences we continue to see, many people aren’t understanding.
