I didn't say ignore him. I said stop reporting on him yelling at clouds.
Reporting on a murder doesn't need to include every insane thing that comes out of the murderer's mouth. But in Trump's case that's what gets the clicks.
It's not a bug, it's a feature. He's pivoted fully, he no longer cares about trying to make sense to anyone but his rabid fan base, and he wants them to come save him. Truth is not objective in authoritarian systems. It's whatever the authority says it is, and if that changes, then the truth changes.
Violate this and become that one famous guy not saluting Hitler in the famous photo. He died in a concentration camp.
My gramps used to tell lots of whoppers, like Trump. He was obsessed and over time he honed his whoppership to a fine art, where you could barely tell if he was rolling you a whopper or telling the truth. And that's the line of distinction right there. Trump never learned to be believable to anyone with half a brain.
