Na she's equal to Sarah Huckabee Sanders.

And every singe one of them has always taken this super-infuriating combative/condescending tone when conversing/answering questions from the press pool.

Like it's bad enough already that you're spewing propaganda, but they've just got to be the biggest assholes about it too.
after years of waiting
nothing came
Fuck drumpf
How quaint.
Is it gaslighting anymore if they're just out and out fucking liars telling blatant fucking lies?

It's specifically a form of (usually spousal) mental abuse by denying someones reality in order to make them doubt their own reality or memory so they might become mentally broken and dependent on their abuser, not just deception. I kinda hate when the internet learns a new word and then redefines it because a certain aspect of a definition is "close enough" so they just use it instead of closer words.

It's already bad enough that there's all these people who spew pop psychology everywhere all the time and conflate similar words till it becomes a collective social meme.

There are ways to be a Republican press secretary that remain within the realm of good faith.
theres no such thing as an ethical republican, even amongst just the voters
Not much different from Sanders & McEnany imo.

Yes, I do. Because words mean things.

If we cheapen the word "gaslighting" into just being internet slang for "lying", it means that people will miss the seriousness of when actual gaslighting occurs. We ran into the same thing a few years ago when right-wingers were calling any crime - or even opinion - they didn't like "terrorism". Abuse and misuse of words cheapens them and reduces their impact.

But we're not saying "lying = gaslighting". We're saying that "lying a different lie each day that contradicts the lie from the previous day = gaslighting"

"All while pretending that the story has never changed, and telling people they've just been too stupid to keep up."

Make no mistake, gaslighting is what they are doing. This is all a flagrant attempt to try and manipulate people's sense of reality. And it's working so well that a significant number of people are.
Doesn't take a lot of brains to be a good fighter.
The question isnt whether you know the term gaslighting well enough to distinguish between lying and actual gaslighting.

Its whether the plethora of dumb dumbs who dont begin to think that this new word they learned actually means lying from context.

The part where she's calling it ridiculous to even suggest otherwise?

That's just what propaganda Barbie does non stop
We live in the age of derangement
"Gaslighting" does get overused on the internet in general. But it totally applies here.

Trump's press secretaries have been constantly gaslighting. They don't just lie, they tell absurd, obviously false lies. They often even contradict their own lies. Then, when the press even questions them about it, not only do they act like the people who don't immediately accept their ridiculous lies are the real liars... they feign being offended and accuse them of maliciously lying as a personal attack .

That is totally gaslighting, especially the part in bold.
