His primary rules were: never allow the public to cool off; never admit a fault or wrong; never concede that there may be some good in your enemy; never leave room for alternatives; never accept blame; concentrate on one enemy at a time and blame him for everything that goes wrong; people will **believe a big lie **sooner than a little one; and **if you repeat it frequently enough people will sooner or later believe it. **

I never understood how normal, kind Germans in the 1920s could be so brainwashed that they'd turn into monsters just a few years later.

Now I've lived through it and seen the same transformation within my own family. It's incredibly sad.

And i still don't understand it, even if I'm seeing it happen live with my own two eyes

I never believed Republicans could be this stupid. I mean... Following George W Bush, such an obvious moron... He at least had some charisma, some decency in him...

But Trump is a pure garbage human being. From inside and out, I couldn't point to a single admirable trait of the fucker.

And that is who these morons cheer for.
