1/ I keep thinking about the crowd at Trump's Michigan rally yesterday. They were so eager to pretend Trump is telling the truth when they KNOW he is NOT.
He yelled at them to "Tell your governor to open up your state! She's got to open up your state! Open up the schools!"
He yelled at them to "Tell your governor to open up your state! She's got to open up your state! Open up the schools!"
2/ The state HAS been open and they ALL KNOW IT.
Michigan gyms are OPEN.
Movie theaters are OPEN.
Restaurants are OPEN.
Our SCHOOLS ARE OPEN.
And every Michigander in that crowd KNEW IT.

3/ Trump bellowed out that nonsense and the crowd went wild with excitement, frothing at the mouth for the chance to pretend their governor was the overbearing despot Trump says she is, even as they know everything single thing he just said was false.
4/ They probably went out to eat on the way to the rally. Or told their kids to do their homework so they could bring it back to their OPEN schools on Monday.
But they LOVE to submit to his demand to play along with his fake reality.
"Lock her up!" they chanted.

5/ There is something seriously wrong with these people who know the truth but are willing to allow grave harm to come to another person - even chant in favor of that harm - just to please Trump.
