Donald Trump’s ‘Big Liar’ Technique

**Submitter's note: browse this site in Privacy/Incognito mode.** Donald Trump has come up with something new, which we can call the “big liar” technique. Taken one at a time, his lies are medium-size — not trivial, but mostly not rising to the level of blood libel. But the lies are constant, coming in a steady torrent, and are never acknowledged, simply repeated. He evidently believes that this strategy will keep the news media flummoxed, unable to believe, or at least say openly, that the candidate of a major party lies that much. And Wednesday night’s “Commander in Chief” televised forum suggested that he may be right.
