Unfortunately when you have the majority of the population basically living from paycheck to paycheck, and being uneducated or undereducated, the results are just like this. It is easy to hoodwink them into believing anything. (The world is Flat Right?).
They cannot see the pseudo aristocracy stealing from them and their children. They at happy to go without healthcare and basically believe anything they hear.
"and being uneducated or undereducated," an we have found just having an "education" does NOT necessarily make you SMART!
ANYONE other than Trump........ and actually yes after a year of this crap. Most of the SMART ones, like me are regretting it. I would have voted for Bernie actually.

They have been trained - It started when the fairness doctrine was overturned which lend to the rise of AM radio and then the late 90s Fox News....Trump supporters really believe everyone is lying to them, but Trump himself and those who kiss his feet. In their minds for decades they have been told most of the media is liberal.
"which lend to the rise of AM radio"
Why CAN'T the left compete, even with the DNC stepping in with its power and money?
I guess they are too busy watching all the "highly intellectual" day time TV shows.
"then the late 90s Fox News..."
Well, you DO have ABC. NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC.
5 to 1 , probably more,and you STILL can't win.
Then we have all the left big newspapers, NY Times, LA Times, Wash Post Balt Sun, Chicago Trib, etc.
The LEFT monopolizes the media and you STILL CAN'T WIN!
Maybe all these media executives should follow hillary around on here "I lost NOT because of ME BUT, on (fill in the blank)!
Just know that you are not alone. There are plenty of conservatives who are disgusted by these "republicans" who have emerged from their dark corners of society to root for a man that insults and disrespects anyone who doesn't agree with everything he says.
I cross my fingers that the Rs lose the House in November and that a more reasonable republican run against Trump in 2020. Either that or run as conservative independent to steal votes from Trump.
"There are plenty of conservatives who are disgusted by these "republicans""
More wishful thinking!
When they go into the voting both I'LL BET they vote R and NOT D
Trump told a reporter point blank why he lies so much and runs down the media.
He says because he knows if he talks enough and discredits enough (Muller too) that the majority of his base will believe him, and not the truth.
I have to say this, or the Gullible's will accuse me of being a Liberal.
I am a Republican, just not a Gullible one. I and ALL of my educated republican friends see righ through the charade, and are ashamed to call him our president. See you at the Ballot Box.
True Trumpers just believe everything he says, again because they at Gullible.
If trump told his followers, 'we have to pass it to find out what is in it', you would definitely have a case.
If trump told his followers isis was the jv, it was a video, shovel ready jobs, solyndra was a good investment and they cheered, that would mean Trump has a lot of Democrat followers on his side.

Which reporter?
People believe anything when it seems to validate their perceptions.
Repeat something loud enough, often enough and more people believe it.

Trump is also capable of greatly manipulating his base, like making crowds of his supporters roar and cheer at will.
"In the Oval Office President Trump boasted in 2017 about how easy it is to appeal to audiences with an anti-immigrant message: “Acting as if he were at a rally, he recited a few made-up Hispanic names and described potential crimes they could have committed, such as rape and murder. Then, he said, the crowds would roar when the criminals were thrown out of the country.” In The Post’s account, “Stephen Miller and Jared Kushner laughed.”" https://www.washingtonpost.com/opini...=.dd5186ff1253
When Trump is alone with his friends and associates he does impressions showing how he can make his supporters roar and cheer at will, and after Trump does the impressions of manipulating his base his friends and associates laugh.
The gullible are the last people to realize they had been taken.
They are incapable of examining evidence. If a story comes out in some RWNJ source, they believe it.
If the MSM reports something that they don't want to hear they disregard it despite the veracity of the claim.
To wit:
Pizzagate is true.
Trump campaign staff members having multiple interactions with Russians is false.
