Chuck Todd: Trump-Supporters Ignore Reality

I mean, I'm sure they do to some extent.
   But right now, and for the last five years at least, there is simply no doubt that it's the left that's inhabited a fantasy world. From gender madness and transgender mythology to the patriarchy and "white supremacist" America, through Russiagate, climate apocalypticism and the sci-fi Green New Deal. As I've said many times, progressives live in a web of fictions sustained by groupthink. The left even has a kind of semi-official pseudo-philosophy, the postpostmodern mishmash of pomo, poststructuralism, critical theory (in its various forms) and a few other odds and ends. Their semi-official metaphysics is "social constructionism," for chrissake--a view specifically meant to blur the distinction between fact and fiction.
   I've never been the biggest fan of the right. But (setting religion aside for the moment), conservatives are currently much less subject to tweaking their view of reality to bring it into accordance with their political preferences.
