We all know he faked it. The fact he is fighting it is proof that the truth has become irrelevant. People will believe a falsehood despite the clear facts because the narrative is more important than the facts. That’s why people believe the Newtown shooting never happened.

I believe more and more people will come over to his side just to be a contrarian.

Two quotes from Wizard's First Rule
"Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People’s heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool.”

...

"many people must be ruled to thrive. In their selfishness and greed, they see free people as their oppressors. They wish to have a leader who will cut the taller plants so the sun will reach them. They think no plant should be allowed to grow taller than the shortest, and in that way give light to all. They would rather be provided a guiding light, regardless of the fuel, than light a candle themselves.”

Terry Goodkind (the author) says he doesn't write fantasy for the sake of fantasy, but rather uses it as a medium for social commentary. ― The second is a good description of the Democrat voter base.
