I Do Not Trust Any Republican to Tell the Truth. [View all]

Man or woman, if a person says something happened or did not happen and that person is a Republican, particularly a Trump voter, I disregard what that person says. Even more so, if what is said has anything to do with a Democratic candidate or office-holder, I assume the statement is untruthful.

The Republican Party is the political party of lies. It is that simple. Republican leaders lie with alacrity and impunity, which causes their followers to think lying is perfectly OK.
