"If you tell a lie big enough and tell it frequently enough, people will eventually come to believe it". What is an example of this happening today?

I would really rather that these were actual examples, and not conspiracy theories. We all have our own unsubstantiated ideas about what shadowy no-gooders are doing, but I'd rather hear about things that are actually happening.

This is the entirety of trump. Tell the lie on a TV show to accelerate results

Part of me legitimately thinks Trump, West, and Musk are geniuses but not in the way most people expect.

They're masters of controversy. They have no conscience and are willing to say whatever will keep them in the news the longest.

They're all brands, and their controversy is just free advertising.
