Voting Dilema

Gordon from Halswell

What worries me, is: The media, which is lying to us about politicians, that are lying to us, we do not believe either of them.

So we, the voting public are allowed to vote on the topics and policies that we, the media, and the politicians know are not true, or if some are true, we do not know which ones they are.

Stay safe people.
