He has played the martyr card often, and it always seems to come when he is in the deepest trouble.

Even if all these supposed "assassination attempts" happened exactly as Trump claims, he lies so much that people are looking upon him like the boy who cried "Wolf".

And Trump's biggest problem is that the biggest doubters are in MAGA world. We progressives like to think we still use critical thinking skills. We look for factual information and try not to jump to conclusions. But the MAGA people have very little in the critical thinking department. From what I can see, a big part of MAGA world is already convinced this was a faked stunt.

Wouldn't it be ironic if this was one of the rare times Trump is actually telling the truth, but none of the MAGA people believed him?
