I think that goes hand in hand with the attacks on education. They’ve painted themselves as being the voice of “working class” Americans and discredit experts that provide knowledge that runs counter to their propaganda as out of touch “liberal elites”. It’s truly ironic that they’re implying that your average American is stupid with that statement and yet their supporters fully agree with it. They point to the correlation between higher education and disbelief in their propaganda as proof that the highly educated are wrong in a weird cyclic argument. Their stance is basically if the intellectuals don’t agree with me, it’s because they’re wrong, not because I am.
Basically this:
🤔 Isn’t he making a specific lie about Kamala Harris here that could be shown to materially damage her election campaign? Plus all it would take is one of these nutjobs taking pot shots at airplanes or something to expand the scope of harm. He’s definitely playing with fire on this one.
