"Experts can easily be taken in - credentialism seems to trump common sense.
"The phenomenon whereby everyone thinks someone else is doing the checking - but nobody actually is - is commonplace.
"Once people are invested in the lie it’s nearly impossible for them to back down.
"Every sinew will be strained to twist evidence which could potentially unveil the lie into a version which sustains it."

Trump won the debate.
Moderators came in second.
Kamala barely made a blip.
As usual, the Democrat/Media collusion machine showed extreme bias against Trump in tonight's debate.
