Reminds me of the Narcissist's Prayer:
That didn't happen.
And if it did, it wasn't that bad.
And if it was, that's not a big deal.
And if it is, that's not my fault.
And if it was, I didn't mean it.
And if I did, you deserved it.
That didn't happen.
And if it did, it wasn't that bad.
And if it was, that's not a big deal.
And if it is, that's not my fault.
And if it was, I didn't mean it.
And if I did, you deserved it.
Almost word for word this week was like- Trump is a conman, you can't believe half of what he says. Trump doesn't deliver half of what he promises. He isn't very smart, just cares about his own image and ego. He is addicted to doing substanceless deals and creating crises he can do these nothing deals to resolve. So DOGE isn't real, he isn't gonna cut spending, he's gonna continue growing deficit, he won't drain the swamp or build a wall or repeal Obamacare.
And the closer is "And given all that there's no way Trump crashes the economy".
I just do not get this cult. It's an addiction to "owning the libs" at all costs.
It's not rational analysis or coherent reasoning. It's tribalism at its core.
