GAS LIGHTING....


Recommended Posts

Gaslighting is a form of psychological manipulation in which a person or a group covertly sows seeds of doubt in a targeted individual, making them question their own memory, perception, or judgment, often evoking in them cognitive dissonance and other changes such as low self-esteem. Using denial, misdirection, contradiction, and misinformation, gaslighting involves attempts to destabilize the victim and delegitimize the victim's beliefs. Instances may range from the denial by an abuser that previous abusive incidents ever occurred to the staging of bizarre events by the abuser with the intention of disorienting the victim.

The term originated from the 1938 play Gas Light and its 1940 and 1944 film adaptations (both titled Gaslight). The term has been used in clinical psychological literature,[1]:31–46[2] as well as in political commentary, philosophy,[3] and popular culture.

Trumpism in a nutshell.....as nobody has perfected the art of gas lighting with as little ease as DJT, except maybe Joe McCarthy and his Red Scare propaganda of the 40's and 50's.....The Roy Cohn connection is shining through.  As always, just my opinion.

Obviously the Stadium was at capacity......wonder if there was a Stadium that held 500,000 if they would have filled it....?

Not at all....just pointing out the obvious for those who mistakenly thought the whole population of India was in that stadium.....Anyway, I already commented positively on this particular crowd size in another thread, started by you, I believe.  ;)

Shabs, hard to watch you make a statement such as this when lately EVERY TIME the frigging Lame Stream Media opens their mouth it is NOTHING but lies about Trump and conservatives. They lost their credit with most freedom loving Americans a LONG time ago and since the have now become the mouth piece and titular head of the Rat party, they probably will NEVER get that credit back. They have been exposed for who and what they really are. Forget about research and reporting just the facts and let the deplorables make up their minds. Nope like good socialist/communists we must be told what to think and what is acceptable in our ives and politics now by a bunch of mentally ill self appointed elitists. The deplorables have awaken and they spoke in 2016 and they will speak again loud and clear in 2020. And as you say Shabs, "as always, just my opinion!!"

Once again.....the bright side is, win or lose, every day is one day closer to Trump's term limit being over.....glass half full, fr8dawg.  ;)

Just think.....if Trump had it his way and the pieces would have fell in place....Bernie could have stayed at the Trump Tower, Moscow.  :facepalm:

I imagine your reasoning for this comment came from the Mueller report.....

 

But wait.......there was no connection of Trump, or his campaign, to Russia specifically indicated in that report......

Not at all......Trump's devoted Attorney Michael Cohen mentioned the Moscow Trump Tower project way back when he was still in cahoots with Donald as a true loyalist....He actually pleaded guilty to lying about it, to protect the Con.....I'm somewhat surprised you don't remember it.

Thanks CL for sharing. When you first brought it I gave the inquisitive look thinking there was a video I'm missing. I learn something new everyday. Interesting.

Sounds like an Odummer tool. jmho

 

Pretty broad/wide range to all of this......the MSM leads the pack on the BS/Gaslighting effort.....

An article in the Atlantic yesterday.....headline something like.....

 

"What happens if Trump refuses to leave office?"

 

That is just crazy talk.....and will only divide the country further.

Just how it is these days.....

And you don't call it gas lighting every time Trump mentions the possibility of him extending his tenure as pOTUS at every one of his rallies?  If that ain't gas lighting his base, I don't what is.

Seems the media likes to play that theme.....extending his tenure......

 

I imagine he is looking forward to 4 more years......

I have to admit I don't listen to his rallies.....so I really don't know how he might have stated it.....or, even if indeed he did.....any video link would be appreciated.....written MSM links are likely worthless...
