They must now try to convince voters that what they clearly saw and heard were all figments of their feeble imaginations.

Who Votes For This?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>So naturally Trump&#8217;s supplicants in Congress are endeavoring to whitewash his wayward past by blatantly contradicting what everyone witnessed in recent history. For example, on Sunday morning Rep. Jim Jordan insisted that <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2024\/11\/10\/trump-political-enemies-jim-jordan-claims-00188622\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Trump will not go after his political opponents<\/a><\/strong>. <em>&#8220;&#8216;He didn\u2019t do it in his first term,&#8217; Jordan told CNN &#8216;State of the Union&#8217; host Dana Bash on Sunday.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Of course Jordan is adamant that Trump wouldn&#8217;t go after his political opponents.

He did so repeatedly. But he wasn&#8217;t able to get anywhere because he had no hint of evidence of any wrongdoing. Even his own staff couldn&#8217;t justify the sham persecutions. As for Trump, his enemies list was well documented &#8211; mostly in his own words &#8211; and quite long. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2024\/11\/06\/trump-retribution-enemy-list-00187725\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Politico published a collection<\/a><\/strong> of some of the targets of Trump&#8217;s wrath, including <em>&#8220;critics and members of the media to be prosecuted, locked up, deported and even executed&#8230;&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Joe Biden<\/li>\n<li>Kamala Harris<\/li>\n<li>Barack Obama<\/li>\n<li>Hillary Clinton<\/li>\n<li>Nancy Pelosi<\/li>\n<li>NY Attorney General Letitia James<\/li>\n<li>Liz Cheney<\/li>\n<li>Special counsel Jack Smith<\/li>\n<li>Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg<\/li>\n<li>Joint Chiefs of Staff Chair Mark Milley<\/li>\n<li>James Comey<\/li>\n<li>Hunter Biden<\/li>\n<li>And dozens more&#8230;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Jordan was not alone in his fictionalization of Trump&#8217;s yearning for revenge.

Trump and his MAGA cult will try to claim that he never questioned the outcome of the 2020 election; or that he never incited a violent insurrection; or that he never downplayed the deadly effects of COVID; or that he never praised authoritarian tyrants like Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un (and Hitler); or that he never sought mass deportations of migrants; or that he never promised to impose inflationary tariffs on all imported goods; or that he never said women must be punished for seeking abortions.<\/p>\n<p>This sort of truth mangling is what Americans can look forward to for the next four years. And all because some voters were more worried about paying more for eggs, than about destroying democracy. And, of course, because the media was too afraid and\/or complicit to report accurately about the existential risks the nation faced by returning Trump to the White House.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, we will all share in the regrets &#8211; and suffering &#8211; that was caused by a small minority of ill-informed, selfish, and gullible cultists who embraced Trump&#8217;s transparent dishonesty and egomaniacal ambitions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED STORIES:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=63688\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Trump\u2019s Prospective CIA Director, Kash Patel: We\u2019re Gonna Come After the People in the Media<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=63678\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Trump AG Prospect Savors \u2018Glorious\u2019 Plans to \u2018Put Kids in Cages\u2019 and Migrants \u2018In the DC Gulag\u2019<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=63649\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The Media Still Doesn\u2019t Get the Danger that We \u2013 and They \u2013 Are In, But the Daily Show Does<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote>\n<div>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>Be sure to visit and follow News Corpse<br \/>\non <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NewsCorpse\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/NewsCorpse\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/newscorpse\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.threads.net\/@newscorpse\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Threads<\/a>.<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>And check out my books on Amazon:<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2aOYFpM\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Fox Nation vs. Reality:<br \/>\nThe Fox News Cult of Ignorance.<\/a><\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>Thanks so much for your support.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It has been less than a week since since Donald Trump eked out a miniscule 2% victory over Vice-President Kamala Harris.
