Lying Undercuts Freedom

“Trump has managed to alienate both a majority of Americans and a majority of countries with the exception of Russia...”

For Trump, lying is as easy as breathing (sociopathy).
For Putin, lying is an essential art 
form (disinformation).
For both:
“If nothing is true, then anything is possible.” Fake News.
Both men (and their supporters) are enemies of freedom.

“Russia is not just an adversary to the United States but to freedom loving people everywhere."

“If nothing is true, then anything is possible.”

Note: I consider socialistic proponents of the welfare state to be just as  dishonest, so don’t lump me in with that crowd either.
