The 3 steps of #American collective hallucination:
1. News and documentaries reflect media bias

2. Reality TV creates scripted "reality" - Trump as a successful businessman/politician. Infotainment: it's true if it sells - FOX news, Newsmax, etc.

3. Conform reality to perception - "stop the steal"

Jack Brown @DrJackBrown

When Republicans say that want 'election integrity', what they really mean is they want to change the laws to make it legal for them to cheat and intimidate voters.
