last time I looked at the definitions, your declarative statement in the title of this thread would qualify as prejudiced and closed-minded.

should I assume all progressives or just you are prejudiced and close-minded?
What did you just do with your "little box assignment" by using the word "progressives"?

This article tries to explain some of that. Interesting reading.

Why conservatives are more susceptible to believing in lies.
In many ways I am conservative yet I didn’t believe your premise.

True, YET this amount of corruption and disorder is the worst in history. America has never seen a president that has this level of corruption, lying, firing, and division in the first year and counting.

When people aka Trump supporters continue making excuses and justification for this administration as if it is acceptable, the articles on the mystery of the gullible party will continue to flood the media. It's not fake news.

progressive is the 180 degree opposite political pole of conservative in this country. making generalized and negative statements about a whole group of people like the OP is prejudiced and close-minded. regardless of who we vote for, we are not one monolithic group, but individuals.

I agree, and this administration have a 34% turnover rate in it's first year. By far the worst in history, the 2nd worst is only 9%.

So I really have to simplify this, huh?

Yes, I know politicians lie. People lie. Sometimes by omission, sometimes overtly, sometimes by willful ignorance, sometimes because they are so incompetent that the lie is born without intent.

I'm sure I have believed lies from previous presidents. But I can't really point too many out, b/c maybe they were just better than what we're seeing now and/or they didn't matter that much.

Example: Bill Clinton did too have sex with that woman. Big, fat lie.

Few are as obvious as that one. But they're out there. I see no reason to go back into history to find them.

Our current administration has so many lies going on, they can't keep track. They are contradicting one another constantly. It's like a circus act where jugglers are juggling fire, and they suddenly leave and let the clowns do the act. Some clowns are getting burned.

This is where "alternative facts" will get you, after all.
