We damn well should.And prior to the GOP being voted out, you believed every word from every one of their mouths, right?
To look at it your way.....we should assume everything is a lie
Always, until proven otherwise. On each and every issue. It's called skepticism, and it's necessary and healthy. BUT it requires something you totally lack -- critical thinking.
Skepticism doesn't mean assuming everything is a lie. Skepticism is doubting the truth of a claim. That's not the same as asserting the claim is false.
