Remember the day when truth actually mattered? Well, apparently those days are long gone. It has been proven that if you continue to lie to someone over and over, they eventually start to believe it. I know this is true, and here's the proof: Donald Trump is currently sitting in the White House. Considering he lied 30,000 times his first time around says a lot about little human minds. These were all fact-checked lies, so he gets a pass on none of them. So let that sink in for a moment. We recently watched as 77,000,000 people voted for a proven chronic liar He lied to their faces constantly, yet this is their man. Truly mind-boggling as to how many souls are lost.

So let me ask you this: If your spouse or best friend lied to you 30,000 times in four years, would you continue to cling to them? Highly doubtful. Yet here we are. Half of the country just voted for a guy who constantly lied to their faces, and they can't get enough of him. I guess if there's that many people who don't believe in truth anymore, it makes for soon-to-be consequences. It just reminds me that the human brain is not as intelligent as we make it out to be. It's apparent that some people are just more easily manipulated or taken over and never appear to have a voice in the first place. Why else would you follow someone who has deceived you all along? Oh, that's right, you don't even realize you've been deceived. You've been lied to so many times that you actually believe it. Truly mind-blowing as to how many people buy into lies.

It's OK to believe in truth, really. You no longer have to be deceived by Donald Trump anymore. Choose to turn your back on lies, lies, lies. Eventually the truth always comes out. Wicked people are exposed to those who finally wake up to the truth. Be good, Do good.
