They’re not lies: Donald Trump wills his ‘truth’ into our reality

Whatever your political persuasion, defend your corner here. All we ask is that you voice YOUR opinion, rather than just post a link to a half-hour youtube video. Politics can get a bit lively, and if you prefer a less combative debate, please post in the Politics for Moderates section instead.

Interesting comments by Sanders on Trump's continual lying - he is doing it for a reason...

'Trump lies all the time': Bernie Sanders indicts president's assault on democracy
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/201 ... -democracy

...Speaking to the Guardian in his Senate office in Washington DC, Sanders said that he was concerned about what he called Trump’s “reactionary economic program of tax breaks to billionaires and devastating cuts to programs that impact the middle class”. But he reserved his most excoriating language for what he believes are the president’s authoritarian tendencies.

He charged Trump with devising a conscious strategy of lies denigrating key public institutions, from the mainstream media to judges and even the electoral process itself, so that he could present himself as the sole savior of the nation....

Sanders - Senator for Vermont. What a beautiful part of the world. Idyllic.
