This. Why are people treating it like it's a joke? He's literally been spouting the bullet points from Project 2025 practically since it came out.
This wasn't a gaffe, it was the mask slipping.
"When somebody tells you who they are, believe them."
"When somebody tells you who they are, believe them."
No. Donald Trump told us he was a brilliant deal-maker, a stable genius, and a gifted billionaire.
A better idea is to do as Maya Angelou said: when somebody shows you what they are, over and over, believe them.
We could just amend it to be, "When somebody tells you who they are, believe them until they demonstrate otherwise."
rule 2: when someone tells you who they are, believe them
rule 1: trust but verify
When someone show and tells them believe you.
It's not even the mask slipping. This is saying what they want and their supporters going right along with it. They don't even bother lying or beating around the bush anymore.
What if they tell me they're awesome?
Believe them, at least until they demonstrate otherwise.
I don't know, man. There's gotta be more context to that saying. That's how people get duped.
I mean, even Trump can be an example of this.
So if Trump says he's awesome, believe him until he demonstrates otherwise. It won't take long in his case.
If Trump says he loves America, believe him until he says he's trying to destroy our democracy.
I don't see why we need additional context.
Well, you just provided the context I was looking for. Thanks.
