Lies...they're all the GOP has left. I am referring to the most recent foray by Trump and the GOP into their alternate universe with regards to claims about HRC being behind the "birther" movement and the RNC's and Trump campaign's monotonous repetition of the meme. On an historical note, Joseph Goebbel's would be impressed by the
efficacy of the GOP spin machine given that the GOP and Trump campaign are
masterfully employing his techniques.
"Arguments must
therefore be crude, clear and forcible, and appeal to emotions and
instincts, not the intellect. Truth was unimportant and entirely
subordinate to tactics and psychology." - Joseph Goebbels
"Propaganda
must therefore always be essentially simple and repetitive. In the long
run basic results in influencing public opinion will be achieved only
by the man who is able to reduce problems to the simplest terms and who
has the courage to keep forever repeating them in this simplified form,
despite the objections of the intellectuals." - Joseph Goebbels
"The
most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success unless one
fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly – it must confine
itself to a few points and repeat them over and over." - Mein Kampf
