Which highlights a larger story: The degree to which Trump’s campaign is built on an immense superstructure of endless, shameless lying.

We talked to Jamison Foser, who writes about the media and the right on his Finding Gravity Substack, about the ways our institutions are capitulating to authoritarian attacks and threats—and what can be done in response.
