If they can get away with it, progressives will ALWAYS lie. Their deceit is second only to Satan.
They understand that they have to lie.
The twisted part is in their justification for having to lie.
If we had to lie to get our agenda passed, we’d look at the agenda askance and ask what’s wrong with it that so many disagree with it.
Leftists look at the electorate as being in the wrong, inherently inferior, and incapable of understanding the intent of their agenda. In other words, they take disagreement with their agenda as proof of its superiority.
