Frustration

One of the most frustrating aspects of the tRump administration is the sheer amount of blatant lying which goes on, mostly unchallenged by a press which can't seem to figure out how to respond to this in your face assault on the truth.   Sure, you can keep score and tell everyone the prevaricator in chief tells an average of 6.7 untruths per day, but most people don't encounter sociopaths on a regular basis and are ill equipped to deal with an avalanche of lies.  At a certain point, most of us tune out.  This is bad in a democracy which depends on engagement.   When the *president declares an obviously true story to be "Fake News", a certain, diminishing segment of the electorate takes him at his word.  Democracy dies a little with each lie.
