"the" message.
One person decides the message. They all dutifully repeat it.
That's what they do in place of governing to improve the lives of their constituents.
All they really want to do is control "the message" (create their own truth).

It's so much easier to create your own truth than it is to deal with reality and facts, but you need everyone on board.
If a tree didn't fall in the woods, but everyone thinks it did, the tree really did fall, right?

Everyone else repeats it.
Michael Cohen explained in his testimony how this works. . .

Here he gives an example how Trump signals the lie: During the 2016 campaign, Trump would ask Cohen how the negotiations with Russia were going for Trump Tower Moscow. Then he turned around and told a reporter that "I have no business dealings in Russia"

Cohen then understood that the lie he was supposed to tell was that Trump had no business dealings in Russia.
We know what happens next: People who repeat the lie are in Trump's good graces. People who refuse are viciously attacked.
GOP leadership is fine with this 🤷♀️

Because it's a way to grab and maintain power.
Everyone stays on message, which then becomes the truth.
