How to Create “Public Opinion” Out of Thin Air

On the subject of manufacturing audience perception by repetition, let us turn to Mr. Hugh Hewitt.  The Conservative cyborg sent from the future to destroy America (and MSNBC would very much appreciate it if you would forget that they gave this like you to forget that they gave this clinking clanking clattering collection of caliginous junk his own show on that network not so very long ago.)   

So, how does one go about turning the objective fact that Trump's ass got spit roasted and served up on the good china by Kamala Harris into "Trump's Unequivocal Victory!"

Well, it's a process. 

First, Hewitt went on the "Still Drunk With Larry Kudlow!" show on Fox, where the puppets and grifters there were desperately trying to make a smiley face out of Trump's epic bed-shitting.

Hewitt kept repeating that it was an ambush!  The worst debate in presidential history!

The weaponization of lawfare is well understood by most Americans, but the weaponization of the media has never been seen that nakedly before and it's having an impact!

But despite the despicable Liberal media plot against him, and making a few, small mistakes Trump actually emerged victorious!

He just went on and on like that.

Second, he recycled thet bullshit into his very own Fox News dot com column!

Morning Glory: The worst debate in the history of presidential debates.   ABC and Disney disgraced and exposed themselves. Republicans and fair-minded independents will never forget. 

Third, did you know Hugh Hewitt also has his own radio show?  Incredibles but true.  Called something like the Hugh-niverse I believe.  And on his very bad radio show Hewit read from his own column and ran clips of himself from  the "Still Drunk With Larry Kudlow!" show because it is through the magic of repetition, bullshit becomes true.

The fourth step is Tweeting his own radio bullshit with the subject line -- 

Upon Further Review, The Officials In The Booth Have Reversed The Call On The Field On The Debate.

-- because someone told this sad little cyborg that humans like the sportsgames and that using the sportsgames metaphors would make him seem credible to humans.

Fifth, Hewitt reappeared on a different Fox News shithole program to repeat this super awesome sportsgame metaphor that will definitely convince humans that Trump!Won!

Hewitt: I think Trump knows he's in the process of winning the debate on Tuesday. NFL fans are familiar with the phrase upon further review officials have reversed the call.. Upon further review, the American public has decided that debate was rigged pic.twitter.com/rO4ffsm0xt

Six, and most pathetically, Hewitt retweeted is own Tweet directly to Donald Trump with this heading  

This is happening.  Harris know it. Everyone knows it. Some won’t admit it. But it is happening.

Now, you might be asking yourself, is there a seventh step in this process?

Damn you're clever, because yes there is!

Stepp Seven is some Never Trumper inevitably wondering sadly whatever happened to good-old so-and-so.  He used to be awesome.

A once serious human reduced to posting tweets that he agrees with his tweets.

How does this happen? https://t.co/gkqneoGmIG

C'mon Stuart.  You know how this happens.  In fact you wrote a whole book about how this happens.

We over here on the Left knew that Hewitt was never a serious human.  He just used to be more discreet about flashing his banal villainy in public and he masked his ideological perversity with big words.  

But the price of riding the Trump train is shedding all nuance and fig leafs and wallowing in the ugliness, which Hewitt has dropped trou and done so without a moment's hesitation.
