(7,220 posts)Seriously, I have met some f-ed up men in my life, but this guy wrote the book on gaslighting victims of abuse.
Gaslighting tactics:
--Acting like his opinions are undisputed fact, and then quickly moving on
--Turning the facts upside down (trying to make it look like the abuser is actually the victim and vice-versa).
--Taking his case public--to try to get everyone else to take his side
--Using his position as a bully pulpit to discourage victims from fighting back
The closest old Tronald Dump could get to even acknowledging that domestic abuse exists is the part about "some are true". Hey Trump! WHICH ones are true, since you seem to know so much about what happened, can you please set the record straight for us, oh all-knowing one?
Asshole.
