Always tell the truth and not just say what because people want to hear.

Last Wednesday, Donald Trump accidentally told the truth. During a visit to the U.S.-Mexico border, Trump actually said, "We have a sick country." That was true, but not at all in the way he intended. America is sick all right, with authoritarianism and white supremacy — a disorder that Trump and the Republican Party have made much worse.
American is sick with conspiracy theories, lies, anti-intellectualism and a widespread disregard for truth, reason and empirical reality. Once again, Trump and his movement have made this sickness much worse.
America is literally sick with the coronavirus pandemic, which has now killed more than 600,000 people in this country alone. Most of those deaths and much of the other human misery caused by the pandemic was preventable. Trump and his regime, through sabotage, indifference and overall incompetence, turned a potentially manageable public health crisis into an outright disaster.
The Age of Trump made America sicker with right-wing political violence and terrorism. Law enforcement and other experts warn that the U.S. may experience a sustained right-wing insurgency or even widespread civil conflict because of the ways Trumpism and the Jim Crow Republicans have undermined and degraded the country's democratic institutions and political community.
