They have done the calculus that if they lie, the vast majority of Media outlets will back them up in their lie.
And the percentage of Americans who might have access to valid information or imagery that will contradict that lie (such as Biden looking at his watch during the ceremony) will result in the lie being propagated, told over and over again, becoming the truth.
If you were to approach one of these Leftists and say "You know, there is such a thing as the Internet, and people have access to information that will contradict your lies..." the response from an honest one (I know, they don't exist) would be as follows:
"Yeah? So what?
Our lies are far more durable than any truth when WE control the flow of information.
Especially more durable than "your truth", which we, erode, destroy, and actually turn right back on you when we characterize you and people like you with our "conspiracy theorist" label, backed up with our hundreds of "fact-checking" organizations.
Furthermore, we are baking this playbook into government and big business.
You, and people like you, are welcome to shout at the top of your lungs about "The Truth" until your face turns blue from lack of oxygen.
As a matter of fact, we absolutely hope you will scream, because we watch this dynamic at play every single day and laugh about it and ridicule you, your pathetic, naive idea that you can overcome all the tools we have built already and incorporated into institutions at all levels, and the ones we are going to implement at every turn.
Like a python that contracts its coils just a little bit with each exhalation of breath by its victim until there is no possibility for it to draw in even the tiniest breath and it dies of suffocation, we will do the same thing with "your truth".
With each "misinformation" resolution we pass, with each "fact check" mechanism we create, with each corporation we burrow these concepts into, with each additional media outlet we co-opt with our agenda, "your truth" will be like a wisp of oxygenated air that will amount to less and less with each coil of the python (which is the passing of time) until eventually, you, your ideas, and your pathetic "Truth" are asphyxiated completely.
The only thing that will remain in that vacuum where "your truth" used to provide you with sustenance, is "Our Truth".
Nobody cares about "the truth", especially "your truth" which is meaningless.
WE determine what the truth is. Get that through your thick, stupid, worthless, pathetic brains. The "TRUTH" is OUR truth."
That’s some powerful writing right there.

There is their truth as you describe but there is also REALITY over which they have no power or control.
If God answers our prayers, and Trump wins, first the tantrums will be absolutely deafening, followed by a doubling and tripling of lies to get him out of office and even a real insurrection by democrats. LORD preserve us, either way.
Dennis Prager summed it up succinctly: “For the Left, truth is not a significant value.” The Cause is more important than the truth, and “the Cause” is revolution.
