Trump's tweets often act as a means to cultivate polarization among his supporters, framing narratives that position him as central to their reality. Assertions in his recent tweet claim that various controversies, which he labels as scams by Democrats, reinforce the notion that he uses language to manipulate perceptions. His framing of the Jeffrey Epstein situation as a hoax exemplifies this strategy, as he dismisses critiques and redirects attention away from serious governance issues. This approach perpetuates a cult-like loyalty, emphasizing an in-group versus out-group mentality.
