The MEGA MAGA MIND MELTDOWN - VOL. I

The MEGA MAGA MIND MELTDOWN VOL. I and VOL. II books take a highly biased & deeply objective look at the psychological pitfalls, propaganda-tricks, and logical fallacies contributing to that utterly irrational, frequently flabbergasting, and often outright dangerous behavior of MAGA-minds in Trump's America. The two-volumes of this book provide you with all the necessary background on the psychological and propagandistic schemes behind the gobsmacking irrationality of your MAGA-hat wearing neighbors, family-members, friends, and colleagues - as well as with a number of practical tactics to identify and successfully counter most of the Trumpministration's and Trumpists' lies, arguments, and debate-strategies.
