That may be one guys opinion, but you understand the other side is lying, correct? What I didn't fully appreciate until Trump was how much of politics is theater.

More than just one guy - seems pretty systemic, if you ask me.

(But, yes, all political parties lie to some extent - some are just more brazen and outlandish than others)

Right, some (the DNC) will pay a foreign entity to craft a totally made up conspiracy theory about Russia collusion and then leverage the FBI, the CIA and all major news outlets to propagandize that bullshit while keeping a straight face.
At the same time they'll spike a story for three years on a prolific pedophile (Epstein) that implicates Bill Clinton, to protect their own.
All parties lie, but the DNC and their allies in the media...well they really take the cake.
