Honestly, the answer is gaslighting.

They trust you, they trust this source.

State the idea that you want them to believe, and then back it up with a manufactured argument from this source they trust.

They won't remember if it was ever said. They just know that they trust you, and they trust your source.

Use this power responsible.
