Republican talking heads wont stop lying till they literally end up in the grave and you with them for a simple logical reason. If they admit to a lie they'll look awful. Once they go along with a lie, they need another lie to back it up. It is *FUNDAMENTALLY* *NECESSARY* to create a pyramid of lies as time goes on. The lies wont end, it cant. Their careers LITERALLY depend on lying non-stop or the house of cards will collapse.
The Trump-led GOP has orchestrated a masterclass in political deception in executing one of the most shameless con jobs in modern political history, convincing its base that "wokeness" is the great existential threat while quietly enabling a massive transfer of wealth to the ultra-rich. They howl about drag shows and DEI programs, keeping their followers frothing at the mouth over imaginary threats and distracting working-class Americans from the very real economic betrayal happening under their noses, all while they slash taxes for billionaires, gut regulations, and sell out the working class to corporate overlords.
Meanwhile, for all their fearmongering about immigration, the GOP has deported far fewer people than Democrats historically have. Clinton, Obama, and now Biden have overseen higher deportation numbers than Bush or Trump, proving that the GOP’s outrage over immigration is nothing more than another smokescreen. When Biden and the Democrats were willing to hand nearly every Republican demand they wanted on the border—tougher security, stricter asylum policies, more deportations—Trump personally told the GOP to kill the deal. Why? Because he and his cronies would rather let the border crisis fester, let fentanyl pour in, and let more Americans die from fentanyl overdoses just so he can exploit the chaos for political gain and for the issue to remain unresolved so he could campaign on it in 2024.
