So we all know Donald Trump as a consistent and unrelenting liar. That is a fact backed up by a lifetime of his lying on nearly any subject without regard to importance. He lies in office; The Washington Post has his count at over 15,000 lies in just 1000 days (averaging about 15 lies to the public per day). When world leaders are questioned about Donald Trump's veracity, the nearly uniform answer is that no one can take his statements as having any merit (although Vladimir Putin seems to think of Trump as honest).
So the question is, does anyone believe Donald Trump is an honest man, one whose word you can take as fact? And for those who would say "yes", do you believe you are also an honest person?
To be clear here, this post is not about bashing Donald Trump. I do not want to see endless rhetoric or conjecture about "Trump is this or that". This is only about his honesty when he speaks and whether we no longer are interested "as a country" on whether our leaders speak any truth and whether that even matters to any of us.
