It began with "alternative facts".. [View all]

It was his first day in office. The Chairman of the Inaugural Committee was Thomas Barrack, Jr, who was one of the names in the Epstein files.

Sean Spicer was the new Press Secretary. In his first appearance, he said that the Trump Inaugural was the largest in recorded history.

KellyAnne Conway tried to explain to Chuck Todd that it was not a "lie" - it was "alternative facts".

And we have been living in that world since those moments.

Now, every Republican that appears before a camera seems insincere and a liar at heart. They could not tell the truth if their lives depended on it. Every single Republican has come across as not only insincere, but deceitful. Every single time.

All for the benefit of Trump's lies and alternative facts.
