• Resumen

  • In this article, the author reflects upon truths and lying. Particular focus is given to how this relates to the presidency of Donald Trump, including how "The Washington Post" tallied 4,229 "false or misleading claims" by Trump in his first 558 days in office. Additional topics discussed include the book "The Death of Truth," by Michiko Kakutani, how lying and repeating lies can impact the brain and memory, and parallels between contemporary society and the dystopian novel "1984."
