(1/3) GASLIGHTING: Last couple days, the news cycle has been especially dense. This means there are more things to deny, lie about, get in front of, and spin. Gaslighting is his game now. It's a manipulative technique used to cement power by causing people to question reality.
(2/3) Gaslighting is a common technique of abusers (like Trump), dictators (like Trump), narcissists (Trump), and cult leaders (Trump). It's usually done slowly, victims tend don't realize they're brainwashed. Trump however, is much more in your face. Amazing it works on so many.
(3/3) People who gaslight lie frequently, tell lies that are easily disprovable and deny ever having said what they said. They claim others are aligned with them. They constantly project: accusing others of the very thing they're guilty of - he is doing it now with Obama, etc.
