Simulacra of being clever against Donald Trump.

Conditioned simulacra number 1. Fixated on tree of Donald Trump, not forest. Sees the forest pattern of cycle repeating across time, but not the forest pattern of whole population (Reddit audience) reacting to every move and shake of Donald Trump / fetish / status symbol.

Conditioned simulacra number 2. That being "clever" and more smart than Donald Trump's Twitter shit-talk isn't taking the bait of Surkov governing / Surkovian simulacra. Hook, Line, and Sinker. This has been going on for over a decade.
"Gaslight. Lie. Repeat" also implies that Donald Trump is self-aware of his own simulacra behavior. Kremlin information warfare manipulated. Which he does not demonstrate self-awareness. By extension, the person declaring themselves "on to Trump's scheme of Gaslight. Lie. Repeat" has to show self-awareness of Peter Pomerantsev / information warfare / enemy not defended against / loss to Russia / call to arms.
