True, but in all honesty as much as President Trump lies and with no apparent ability to know what's real and what's not I don't think a lie detector would be very useful. A fact checker, checking everything they say for accuracy? Now
that would be interesting.

Well, then, if you have both, you can see if the facts check, and then see if the lie detector says he knows he is lying or he has the ability to create what he wants to be true without knowingly lying. Also, I have read what I would say are reasonable ways to fool a lie detector.
I know how I used to think and say things which now I would not say are true. I was convinced.
And we all can do this, possibly. How many times have you believed a weather report?
Some people have more ability to believe, than others. So, I don't know how much Donald is able to believe versus lie.
In any case, this is part of why there are checks and balances.
Yes, ones have believed innocent people were guilty. They had what appeared to be obvious evidence, sometimes, it is reported. And these may have been everyday in-their-right-mind people.
I have been able to be convinced that someone did what the person did not do. Then I would find out I did it. DOH! And then I knew I could do this, but still did it.
So, fact checking . . . can be a game of when we have the facts correct and when our wishfulness or my paranoid capability sneaks in a thing or two.
Have you read how the Jewish leaders were fooled by rigged evidence > Joshua chapter nine ?
There can be a slant to the reporting, what we are told and what not. It can get "objective" when ones are talking about Donald, but how objective is the filtering system? Is it just as objective and with an effort to be complete when the reporters are talking about the ones they favor? Possibly, everyone is doing it. Both parents can be wrong when there is a divorce.
And what might be going on? Possibly, Donald knows all this keeps attention to him, so ones are not getting informed about other potential candidates.
There are people who say it is ok to kill unborn people and to turn people into eunuchs. But such people are being presented as being honest and ones who care about people . . . while Donald is treated like he is the only dirtbag to be found.
I think a genuine leader will make a point of pointing out how he or she can be wrong, so we don't go along with him or her while the person is mistaken and the wrong way. So, we will see who makes a point of pointing at how he or she can be wrong, versus always pointing at or insinuating how others are claimed to be wrong.
