Don't Think of an Elephant

I think this article is related to yesterday's post. For Trumpies, there isn't truth or falsehood:

If you’re someone who shares Trump’s worldview, there are certain things that follow from that worldview. In other words, certain things have to be true, or have to be believed, in order to sustain that worldview. The things that aren’t actually true but nevertheless preserve that worldview are “alternative facts” — that’s what Conway was getting at, whether she knew it or not.

Truth and untruth are irrelevant. "Belief" trumps them both.
