- Rachel Maddow talks with Steve Benen, MaddowBlog editor and author of "Ministry of Truth: Democracy, Reality, and the Republicans' War on the Recent Past," about how Republicans have grown increasingly comfortable simply denying inconvenient facts or constructing false histories to avoid having to deal with being associated with unpopular policies and events.

This is why it is usually completely pointless to argue with Trump supporters.
Ultimately, truth really comes down to your experience. Mainstream media manipulate facts. For example, Harris hid joe's condition. IF she has done that, then What else has she hidden? How do you explain to yourself even that event?
Yes! My family are all Trump supporters and there is literally no way to have a productive conversation if you can’t agree on basic facts of reality. I can show them very nonpartisan/neutral sources and they will say it’s liberal fake news. It’s beyond frustrating
unfortunately some of people will believe Trump didn't say that. You would have a more intelligent conversation with a one year old child than a Trump supporter.
@@whisper_dvm5157 what neutral sources are you referring to?
@@D0NNY-JAMES Facts Donny. Facts are neutral.
Gaslight as if it wasn’t broadcast to millions and recorded!
We’re all getting a lesson on the audacity of folks who just serve up lies!
Especially corporate media!!
And somehow it works on nearly half the country.
@@theinsaneshecklador6598 Like hypnotism, it works only on people who want to believe it.
@@theinsaneshecklador6598I hardly think MAGA is half of America
@@KarmaOfBelle Well, the polling numbers show that Trump and Harris are in more or less of a dead heat. So yeah, except for the few undecideds still out there, Trump and his minions have managed to bamboozle about half the country.
It's extremely disturbing, but it is what it is.
"The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final most essential command." - George Orwell, "1984"
So true and ahead of time!
I was going to quote the same thing. They GOP wants you to forget about how everything really happened and fall in line.
“Good people on both sides” means he’s a racist
-You guys, on the left
“She was never the border Czar”
-You guys still, on the left
“We never said it would grant immunity”
-Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeft
@@Apfle_3.1415you do realize you are attributing truthful quotes to their sources, yes? 😅
@@t-10ten10no, right in our time.
And the journalists must take some responsibility for repeatedly NOT challenging these lying politicians.
Exactly, I heard an interview with a politician who made remarks after a loss. The reporter asked why this wasn't brought to their attention before the election, to which he got the reply: It's up to you as a reporter to listen, ask relevant questions and let the answers be heard, instead of just chasing viewers.
I can't even stand to see debates, it's like a game show were you only get points from answering quickly and as loud as possible. 🙄
The thing is, they're NOT JOURNALISTS!!! Working on a cable news program does not make you an investigative reporter, it makes you an on air presenter. The problem is that Americans refuse to learn the distinction between the two.
The journalistic concept of "objectivity" and the method of treating each side equally, giving "he said/she said" reporting, are no longer relevant. The media have failed to hold politicos accountable for what they say. Part of the problem is the lack of interviewing skill, part of the problem is the lack of knowledge. It's difficult to hold Trump's feet to the fire if you don't have the facts at your command to rebut him on the spot.
ABSOLUTELY!!
I can't stand watching these 'journalists" ---coddling these liars and not asking even obvious questions or they won't have access---we all lose

-Require inordinate sacrifices and money from followers
-Fanatically follow one person or belief system
-Leaders punish doubts or questions
-Leaders build their image on lies and may display narcissistic behaviors.
-Members justify the leader's or group's actions regardless of how cruel, illegal or immoral.
@@dixonmopar2129 No, that's a fandom. Very different.

In a way he's not wrong.
It works on a quarter of the population.
I am a lifelong Republican and hated MSNBC for SO LONG... but when the "Zero Tolerance" Policy on the southern border hit the news, I saw a broadcast of Rachel Maddow (who I had villified in my mind) crying over the situation on air. I was so moved by the crisis situation, I had honestly never cared for immigrants but for whatever reason, I identified with those parents. For the first time in my life I started to examine why I had the feelings I did for Central and South Americans. Years later, I am typing this comment from a remote village in Argentina. I have been down here for the past 4 years. Rachel's humanity helped me find my humanity. I LOVE that she is as brutally honest as she is. I LOVE that she shows her love for a friend and colleague. I couldn't be a bigger fan. Buying this book for everyone I know!
Love prevails! Welcome home. I subbed your channel, I love learning languages to help me learn to understand and love other humans better. Can't wait to see what you do with your channel.
Bless you! Welcome to the light.
Wow, thank you for sharing your beautiful story! I believe in the power of heart-based truth, and now I have your evidence to support my belief! ❤
When I was 18, I traveled to my friend's rural village in Mexico. I ate beans and corn Tortillas for a week, went 💩 in the corn fields, and bathed out of a bucket.
Her family gave me such a warm welcome, and were so wonderful. I felt like family.
I would take that, over Donald Trump's vision for America, any day. 💙💙
Outstanding!! Means sooo much! 💜👍
When is Trump talking about his policies and not about skin color and crowd size?
Because he can't talk about Project 2025....it's a secret 🙊
He won't talk about his policies because they're very unpopular he never mentions project 2025 or any of the things that he wants to do. But he messed up tonight speaking of abolishing the department of education
@@MayorWillieBrown1992 you're also a troll spreading disinformation.
When you're only listening to media reports instead of listening to him live and unedited. If you really want to know about his policies, the quickest option would be to go to his website and read Agenda 47.

Extremely & Thoroughly 😁
V.E.R.Y
As stupid as you do for thinking you actually voted for Harris.
To themselves they always look correct. That's kind of the point here isn't it?
He is delusional and always has been, he believes he is some sort of a God and what he says is gospel. Also, the fact he expects people to believe his alternate universe is very dangerous.
That's exactly how fascism starts and he is doing exactly what Hitler did to Germany and people fell for it. We can not let him win!!
The fact that so many people actually believe his alternate universe is so much more dangerous!
I heard him say, with my own ears, that, "He has done more Christianity since Jesus.". This puts him above all the declared saints of the Christian religion.
@yurei8 it's extremely scary in my opinion
A superb report! Thank you, Rachel Maddow and Steve Benen!
Thank you Rachel for being one of the few real journalists who knows how to deliver news
Joseph Goebbels play book, If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.
Spot on … and trumps bed side reading book is Mein Kampf 😂😂😂
Yeah, they aren't even unique, it's basic fascism. I guess they could get a half point for adding religion to it so it's easy to sell in bibel waving Americans. 😂
In the UK we have Nigel Farrage doing exactly the same
Not quite, literally, "It will become the truth."
Don’t misquote Goebbels. Don’t misquote anyone. Verify the quote first, don’t accept it as fact.
*Alleged quotation*
The following supposed quotation of Joseph Goebbels has been repeated in numerous books and articles and on thousands of web pages, yet none of them has cited a primary source. According to the research and reasoning of Randall Bytwerk, it is an unlikely thing for Goebbels to have said:
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. “
Adolf Hitler put forward the idea of “große Lüge”, the “Big Lie” because he believed the German people would believe him as long as he kept repeating it.
Gaslighting is the worst form of lying.
Fear comes from the lack of knowledge and a state of ignorance. The best remedy for fear is to gain knowledge"
Authoritarians require the submissive and the uneducated. And don't you dare try to inform the followers of that. It's simply unfathomable to them.
Sadly at this point, you can confront them with facts and they won’t believe you. Everything outside of what FoxNews and their Dear Leader says is fake news.

I once taught a class of eight-year-olds. I saw one of the boys by the coatpegs dip his hand into the coat-pocket of a classmate and put some coins into his own pocket. I immediately told him what I had seen and he was to put the money back. He got angry, and told me firmly he was no thief and he hadn't taken anything. I asked him to empty his pockets, which he finally did, proclaiming the coins he brought out were his. I reminded him that I'd seen what he'd done, and he said, very angrily, that I hadn't seen it because he hadn't done it. I wonder what Trump was like as an eight-year-old.

Happened again in Elon Musk interview. Had law and order discussion ignoring:
1. Central Park Five
2. Jan. 6 Capitol police officers attacked and painfully wedged in door
Also they discussed the economy and inflation without discussing corporate greed or his ridiculous tax kickbacks for his billionaire buddies. Even his tax-free tips proposal is actually a terrible idea that's going to bankrupt the government by allowing all sorts of rich folks to reclassify major parts of their income as tips and avoid taxes. Don't know why Harris isn't calling it out for the sham it is instead of jumping on a bad bandwagon.
He insists no one died on Jan 6. The dead cops stopped existing for him.
This is a classic tactic of scammers and con men. When you find the mark, don't tell a small and believable lie. Instead, you tell the most outlandish and easily debunkable lie possible. The reason being if they'll accept that, they'll be susceptible to pretty much anything.

Great job
What a strange tactic in a time when we can all google and re-watch all that recent history!
The reason I believe people buy into the lies is because most are working hard to get by and don't read or listen to news. They don't keep up with politicians as they don't have time for it. I was this way. Some one could ask me who the governor was and I did not have a clue, there had been time where working 2 jobs I did not know who the president was. My job was to see my wife and kids were fed and had clothes to wear and a warm bed to sleep in. I did try to keep up, but it was not a priority. My family was.
