As displayed by Trump’s lifelong criminal enterprise and cons, from his international money laundering to his fraudulent university to his tax, bank, and insurance frauds, Trump has always been a criminal anarchist opposed to law and order. Though only as that law and order applies to him. But for rewards of the same exception to his operatives, Trump still needs others to conform to legal norms in order to prey upon them. To insulate Trump from the visceral condemnation of moral judgment against a double standard, his followers must undermine the legal system that judges Trump in violation of its norms. This is why America’s once “very Christian” House Speaker Mike Johnson rejects Apostle Paul’s admonition of Ephesian 4:25 and instead lies, claiming Trump’s 34 guilty convictions are the result of a “weaponized” legal system that Biden rigged against Trump. All while the same system just convicted President Biden’s son. The system of justice must be delegitimized in order to legitimize Trump’s lawlessness and to legitimize the immorality associated with lawlessness to protect Trump at the expense of civilization. So it was for Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, Mao, and their followers, so it is for Trump and his. A bit of psychological jujitsu emergent from apostates, amplified by our own FOX RT, asocial media, and talk radio: believe what you’re told (over and over and over again), not your own eyes. It worked for Trump’s 20th-century idols. It works for him.
