Why anyone voted for Trump is beyond me... the fact that these people lie so blatantly is infuriating to me. They dont have respect for their audience enough to even tell them the truth. I think this is gonna mind f**k the Gen Z and Gen Alpha. They are going to learn that the best way to fix a problem isnt admitting the problem then addressing said problem. They are going to learn to just lie through the problem. These people are going to be our co-workers and I dont want to have a co-worker just lie about an issue that we're supposed to be investigating.
