I don't think people understand enough that while it's true that presidents were always called stupid liars, no president has ever openly spewed and embraced easily disprovable lies and "alternative facts" anywhere near as much as Trump does on a daily basis. By a lot. Trump is a narcissistic, psychopathic manchild except this time it's not hyperbole. We live in post-truth, post-parody times in the USA. Trump destroyed respect for science and experts, and destroyed the responsibility that should come with the leadership role. The EU is still holding strong against misinformation but they too might fall if we let the likes of Elon Musk have their way.
