That’s the magic of DJT. You can just pick and choose the things you take seriously, so that it fits whatever scenario you want to subscribe to.

I remember, the "wall not being a real wall" cope during the first campaign too.

It's double-think at its finest.

I thought about it once and I thought about it once more, but I don't understand what double-think is supposed to be.(This is coming from a non-native speaker)

Double-think is a mostly self indoctrination tool where someone believes two completely contradictory facts at the same time normally with extra categories that also don't make any sense.

This makes it so that you can never debate or argue the real subject.

An example would be the color red is yellow; the color red is blue.

Now you know that is not true, but if you went to talk to them about it the conversation would go:

Red is not yellow.

I know, because red is blue.

No red is not blue.

I know, because red is yellow.

No red is the red.

Correct, but we are not talking about red, we are talking about the color red. The color red is yellow,  and the color red is blue.
