“The problem is voters believe the lies when they are put out daily.”
It’s straight out of the Nazi playbook. As Goebbels said, although the quote is nowadays usually shortened and simplified:
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”
