Comment on Does trump know he cheats at golf?
A_norny_mousse@feddit.org 3 weeks agoIMO the discussion whether it’s done knowingly or not is moot in such cases.
Analogy: some people are so used to their own “fuck the world” attitude that throwing trash on the sidewalk is second nature to them, they hardly think about it. So they don’t do it knowingly. Does that in any way lessen their deed? Not to me. Quite the opposite: it’s a larger problem.

No argument here, a corrupt asshole is still a corrupt asshole no matter what they make think of themselves.
But because they can genuinely believe whatever bullshit comes out of their mouth others have no problem buying into it as well.
