Does truth matter anymore?


Why should I be required to tell the truth? When the president lies multiple times. Every day. And gets away with it. Largely, because that’s his nature. It’s an accepted and expected part of Donald Trump. His supporters aren’t bothered by it. Maybe they believe his lies. Because they don’t know truth from fiction. Of course, I’m not fooled by his brazen lies. Instead, I’m baffled. That we Americans allow him to get away with the lies. When we know, beyond a doubt, that he’s full of BS. What does that say about us? And about the state of our politics? Makes me wonder. If truth matters anymore. --Jim Broede
