The blatant, in your face, lying is getting to me.

Why do political people lie the way they do - when it is so obvious to most people that they are lying?

Is it because one political consultant tells them that it works; and then another tells them “they all do it”?

Is it because in the short term it gives an advantage, and in the long term the lie will be forgotten - after all, all that matters is winning.

Case in point: Harris at the naval observatory; she turned my stomach/ made me cringe . . . no shame,none at all.

All politicians lie, but Trumps lies are like the ones you hear in a bar or locker room; Harris’ are like what you hear from a used car dealer, or at a casino, from a prostitute or a con man who wants to trick you out of your winnings or inheritance, or wants you to sign up for a very high interest loan.

There’s got to be a better way to select “leaders”.
