The eagerness with which the disciples of the Donald Trump cult embrace what they regard as his divine perfection is always disconcerting. But from time to time they manage to transcend even their typical levels of blind devotion.

This is particularly noticeable on Trump’s Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News, where the glassy-eyed adoration of Dear Leader overtakes every measure of rationality. Characters like Sean Hannity and Laura Ingraham and Jesse Watters can’t seem to contain their rabid reverence for the Messiah of Mar-a-Lago. It’s a reverence that Trump also feels about himself.

Among the apostles of Trumpism on Fox News is Tammy Bruce. And she demonstrated her resolute affinity for Trump in a segment on Hannity’s show wherein she rapturously fawned over Trump as a beacon of truth…
“It perhaps is one of the most honest evenings we’ve seen in a very long time. We’ve always seen honesty with President Trump. One thing about that guy is that you know who he is. He is always going to be himself, he never adjusts the nature of what he’s going to say or do to trick people or to pander.”

REALLY? Bruce’s description of Trump as someone from whom “we’ve always seen honesty” is laughable. She is deeply ensconced in idol worship that makes her perception incomprehensibly twisted. After all, Trump has been documented to have told more than 30,000 lies during his occupation of the White House. But undeterred by reality, both he and Bruce see things through a delusional lens.

What’s more, for anyone on Fox News to assess the honesty of Trump – or anyone else – is audacious in the extreme. Have they forgotten that Fox News settled a defamation lawsuit for $787 million after having been found to have lied purposefully and repeatedly about the 2020 presidential election being “rigged and stolen” from Trump.
From a certain perverse perspective, Bruce could be right. Yeah, Trump is honest in the sense that “He is always going to be himself.” So long as you accept that he is a pathological liar who will say anything that advances his interests at any moment in time, then sure. That is exactly who Trump is. And will always be.
The problem with that is that his cult followers continue to have unflinching faith in Trump as their savior whose every word is gospel. If he told them that they were too stupid to know that he was lying to them, they nod and agree. In fact, that’s pretty much how keeps them in line, despite his constant stream of falsehoods. And they love him for it.
