Multiple times. They're either being purposely obtuse, or genuinely don't get it.
I'm guessing the latter.
Both. The people in power understand it and are lying to the base so they genuinely dont get it.
There is a large segment of the population that wants a King to rule them. It's what makes sense to their brain, so they project.
I'm stupid, so I need a smart guy to tell me what to do. Trump is smart, he says so, and he wouldn't lie.
They just need to keep the propaganda machine running. It doesn't have to make sense for critical thinkers, as those are not the audience they want.
