Get what he wants. They believe his hype and disallow what people who know him and how he operates to win for himself. They do not know the first thing about narcissism and how it guides his every move. They are enchanted by his millions and listen to him when he implies he is much richer than he is.

Mueller will have all the goods on him to demonstrate what a crook and a liar he is, but I doubt that the folks in the interview will ever be swayed by facts. They wanted a guy who would tell them what they wanted to hear and unless he has a Lonesome Rhodes open microphone moment, they will go to their graves pledging undying devotion to their false god. I feel sorry for them in some respects, but then again a part of me knows they will get what’s coming to them. A swift kick in the ass.
