Clown Population. The clowns inside the White House are only a small fraction of a total society of mock for mock, reactionary mocking, clowns. The entire nation is a "basket case of clowning around" on social machines / HDTV media machines / mockery.

People like to play a screen game of psychological denial and say ONLY MAGA is the clowns, only the White House is the clowns. It's the entire population of Untied States of America.

A short clip from a 1990 interview Walters did with Trump for ABC’s “20/20” made its way onto TikTok, and users say not much has changed.

After watching the clip on TikTok, many people seemed to have a similar takeaway in the comments. As one TikToker put it: “he’s always been exactly who he is.”

“He’s been a lying, delusional conman his entire life,” another TikToker wrote.

“The press isn’t dishonest, HE is and that’s why he’s currently trying to suppress the press. 🙄🙄🙄,” said another user.

“If this interview happened in 2025 MAGA would blindly yell ‘fAkE nEwS!’” another TikTok pointed out.

“He’s always been a grifter,” echoed another user.

“He hates being called out by women, especially women in the press,” another user pointed out.

...

Not a single person can explain WHY people Trust such an obvious liar and deceiver, confidence man

Because of Russian Kremkin Information warfare against the population.

Even none of the people commenting “He’s been a lying, delusional conman his entire life" can explain why anti-goodness, self-harm of USA keeps working for him since 2013! Not a soul here can discuss mass mind manipulation, Russian information warfare.

“That unique Moscow mix of tackiness and menace. One time I see a poster advertising a new property development that captures the tone nicely. Got up in the style of Nazi propaganda, it shows two Germanic-looking youths against a glorious alpine mountain over the slogan "Life is Getting Better". It would be wrong to say the ad is humorous, but it's not quite serious either. It's sort of both. It's saying this is the society we live in (a dictatorship), but we're just playing at it (we can make jokes about it), but playing in a serious way (we're making money playing it and won't let anyone subvert its rules).” ― Peter Pomerantsev, Nothing Is True and Everything Is Possible: The Surreal Heart of the New Russia, 2014

Why did rural Americans start to trust a city-slicker con-man bullshitter from New York City penthouse / rich family.

Rural Americans were raised not to trust city-slicker con-men salesmen like Donald Trump.

What CHANGED was "Operation Matthew 4:19" agreed in November 2012. What changed was the 2007 introduction of the Apple iPhone and rural less-educated people joined Facebook, Twitter and were exposed to Russian information warfare. That is WHAT CHANGED!

Year 2016 analysis like this: https://www.vox.com/the-big-idea/2016/11/16/13645116/rural-resentment-elites-trump COMPLETELY FAIL TO TAKE INTO ACCOUNT Neil Postman, Media Ecology

What changed in 2014 and 2015 was Kremlin information warfare. DOCUMENTED by George Washington University & Johns Hopkins University as starting in year 2014. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-45294192

What CHANGED is that Rural people who hated city slickers and computers and nerds with laptop computers all adopted smartphones! The very people with the least experience on the Internet, the kind of people in year 2005 would warn you to not trust what you read on the Internet, suddenly were trusting everything in meme format on Facebook and Twitter and the least experienced at knowing information warfare and Internet manipulation!

You can not discount the rise of "liberal tears, LOL LOL, liberals are suffering ha ha ha LMFAO amusement" reactions of year 2014 onward. These are the very foundation of Surkov / Surkovian information warfare against American people, including rural populations of MAGA supporters.

All of these reporters and journalists have failed to study their own profession of media itself, "media ecology", Neil Postman was a teacher in Donald Trump's home town, New York University!

The Apple iPhone screen size changed the rural population. Donald Trump is entertaining in the same way Tony Clifton is. The Apple iPhone changed everything, and the media journalists and reporters just can't see that their own newspapers went out of business at the same time (2013) that rural Americans started to believe and trust city slickers who were obvious liars. Russian information warfare found least-educated rural people to be the first to fall for the Kremlin manipulation.

“But it is much later in the game now (1985), and ignorance of the score is inexcusable. To be unaware that a technology comes equipped with a program for social change, to maintain that technology is neutral, to make the assumption that technology is always a friend to culture is, at this late hour, stupidity plain and simple.” ― Neil Postman, Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business, 1985
