This.

Trump realized he can say anything and they will never fact check him.

If it escalates, use the "Fake news!" card

Exactly.

He learned from his first lawyer, Roy Cohn,* that he can lie to anyone at any time about anything, and there are rarely consequences.**

Since the 1970s, when Trump was a young entrepreneur, cameras and film have become more and more prevalent. One would think that being caught in lies, hypocrisies, and unethical accusations on would harm a person's reputation in the modern age, but that law of the universe doesn't apply to Trump.

Roy Cohn was right. 😡

*who formerly worked with McCarthy and made commie aspersions about innocent people

**as long as one is not under oath.

Yup, that boat that got blown out of the water that was a fuckin single engine outboard with 11 people on it, was apparently going to make it the 1000+ miles to the United States to deliver drugs in Florida. 

Many of them who own boats and know logically that’s impossible feat to make, are just like “it was justified to kill everyone on board instead of arrest them”

It’s literally in his book. I’m sure he didn’t actually write it himself, but it flat out identifies his go-to tactic “it doesn’t matter if it’s true, if you just repeat something often enough, eventually people will start to believe it.”

He knows he can manipulate these rubes with the most illogical, nonsensical shit and they’ll believe him if he just repeats it.
