Politics: Why Trump Loves to Lie

Donald Trump needs psychiatric help. I’m not saying this to be mean. I’m saying this because he clearly doesn’t live in our world of reality and someone needs to make that clear to him. This guy is a very clear danger to himself and others. He needs help and he especially needs to have someone in his orbit tell him this. In fact, he needs as many people in his inner circle to tell him this as often as possible until he gets the help he needs.

 

Why does Trump lie? There are a lot of simple reasons why. For instance, when he talked about the lawsuit that he lost recently, he immediately stated an obvious lie about what happened that could be easily debunked by anyone who cares. He said that he won the case that he lost. Why does he say that? For one, he wants a soundbite. He wants people listening to what he says because some people are going to play the lie regardless of if they point out that it is a lie. He is going to play the lie over and over again and his supporters won’t care because they only listen to what he has to say. Even if the media keeps calling his lies what they are, they are still going to repeat the lies over and over again.

 

This makes me think of how sad it is that no one close to Trump is trying to get through to him over why he should just admit defeat and stop lying all the time. They can be as guilty as he can be in many cases over all the dangers that he keeps causing because they let him keep saying lies over and over again.

 

Other reasons Trump keeps lying is because his supporters let him get away with it. They got their precious repeal of Roe versus Wade (something I actually like) even though Trump doesn’t actually care or support true pro-life causes. He’s seen as a fighter even though he keeps lying because he’s actually doing something where are the true president in office right now doesn’t like to make waves or draw attention to himself and is seen as weak as a result. Trump likes to take credit for good things that others did, like signing the VA bill that Obama signed or deny the bad things that he did do, like separating migrant families.

 

Let’s face it: Trump probably doesn’t even believe half of the shit that he says. More shit comes out of his mouth than you’ll find in the average sewer. But he loves to lie, the media repeats his lies, and his supporters don’t give two fucks about his lies.
