Letter to the editor: All of us need to get back to the truth
The letter “Lies and conspiracy theories now the norm?” (Aug. 5, TribLive) was terrific. Lies in our politics and government have always been around, but I think this guy, President Trump, has made it it an art form; his lies have poisoned the truth so badly that I fear it may take decades to undo the damage.
I hope and pray that our society — Democrats, Republicans and independents — will get back to decency and truth as it once was, when a pathological liar would be instantly disqualified as a candidate for any office, much less the highest one.
I fear America will not survive as it has become under Trump when “lies have become the norm.” We must get back to truth.
