This ain't a question directed at any particular president but if our government was lying to us would we know? I kind of think of how people in other countries seem to believe things that are complete lies. We know these are compete lies because we are looking at them from the outside and we can see that what they are being told is not true. I can only think of one example and that is North korea but if we were being lied to by our government right now would we know about it? Would we be the same as the people inside these countries and just believe them? Once a person is completely exposed to one version of the truth they have no choice but to believe it because they haven't seen anything else. I often wonder how suspeseptable we are to the same thing considering so many media outlets are politically aligned with one party or another. Clearly they can't be trusted but we really have no choice because it is the only thing we hear. We have to accept it because that is all we are exposed to.
