[QUOTE="zephcom, post: 74035735, member: 400000"] The problem isn't just one lie. Once someone is known to be a flagrant liar, nothing they ever say can be trusted to be true. Here is an excellent example of this concept. The other day, Trump pulled a folded piece of paper out of his pocket and claimed that it contained a 'secret' agreement with Mexico. The Mexican official said there is no 'secret' agreement in existence. The presumption across the land is going to be that the Mexican official is the telling the truth -because- our president is renowned for his frequent and compulsive lying. When a press secretary repeats and defends those lies he/she becomes a liar also. Then the press secretary shares the same lack of trust the President enjoys. There are times in which, for such things like national security, lying becomes necessary. But those necessary lies become useless if the messenger is known to lie all the time. One HAS to have a reputation for generally telling the truth before a necessary lie is believed. Sadly, America is in that situation with the current president. I, and many many others, no longer even care what he says because we KNOW that he is lying. And that is a very dangerous situation for a nation like America which has the economic, political and military power America has. And Sanders did nothing to bring truth and honesty back to America's reputation. Defending a notorious liar does not change the lies into truth. [/QUOTE]
