It’s almost worse than that. I swear, some of them take a perverse pride in being led all around the political landscape like a dog with a shiny red ball. The discussions I’ve had where people happily and excitedly admit that Trump was completely lying to them and just hungrily accept the new story as undeniable fact is wild and impossible for me to wrap my head around.
I feel like it’s incredibly important to note here that 4 days ago the US military, at the direct order of president trump, destroyed a Venezuelan civilian boat in international waters killing every one on board. The ENTIRE reason the trump administration claimed this move was legal (it isn’t in either courts of US law and the International Criminal Court) is because they claimed the boat was carrying members of Tren de Aragua which they recently officially announced as a terrorist organization.
