Could we have a mayor who isn’t hurting his subordinates, allowing his backers to do crimes, and inserting himself into depths of government operation that make no sense for someone in his job too prevent good things from being done?

But it’s just going to be like this, because none of the audience for this stuff has either the desire or ability to figure out whether it’s true. The fearfulness is addictive. There is no counteracting with this with the right Compelling Message. No easy ways out.

I talked about my experience actually living here and his response was basically “I don’t know, Tim Pool was saying…”. Impossible to engage with.
I’m not sure if Trump posted this because he believes it for similar reasons, or if he’s trying to create that reality in the minds of others. Who knows.
