[quote=pinkflamingo]They can’t even admit that something so egregious is wrong coming from a president.

Yeah, the true believers (and there are tens of millions of them) cannot be reasoned with.

That’s the worst part. They’ll never change their minds because all the objective truth in the world can’t get them to see the tiniest bit of the error of their beliefs.

I don’t think they want to see the truth. I don’t think they want to see the error of their beliefs. I think they’re in denial the same way that an alcoholic is in denial or a person just diagnosed with terminal illness can be in denial. They want so badly to believe – that they can still drink normally or that they’re not going to die this year or that they are in the righteous tribe – that their mind just refuses to accept the truth. And any evidence pointing to the truth is immediately and completely dismissed without analysis or inspection.

How does one deal with that?

I guess all we can do is outnumber them this November.
