“With respect to Spain, I think they heard the president’s message yesterday loud and clear, and it’s my understanding, over the past several hours, they’ve agreed to cooperate with the U.S. military,” Leavitt told reporters.
Spain swiftly and “categorically” rejected Leavitt’s assertion, however.
“The Spanish government’s position on the war in the Middle East ... and the use of our bases has not changed at all,” Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares told private radio station Cadena Ser, according to Reuters. |
The behaviour from Trump here is not new at all -- they live in their own alternative fantasy reality where one tweet from the Orange Man means the law and world order is instantly changed. But in the real world, things don't operate that way.
Still, the Trump side will continue to ignore reality, and continue to harp on their version of the truth. Unfortunately, most in the MAGA base will blindly take up whatever the latest version of "truth" is from Trump, even if it direct contradicts any of Trump's previous truths. Until the new policies start affecting themselves -- eg. a MAGA supporter's own family gets ICE-ed, for example -- they don't wake up and continue to spew the falsehood. At that point, you can't even hold any form of sensible discussion with them because they won't even acknowledge the real facts on the ground.
And then there'd be people who don't normally follow this stuff, and they pick up Trump's version of alternative reality, and the misinformation continues to spread, or they start questioning the actual facts on the ground.
