[QUOTE="AlexB23, post: 77663731, member: 450900"] It seems that politicians lie a lot nowadays, to boost their own ego. Here is a long article that asks if voters can detect lies from politicians: [URL="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8378529/"]Deception Detection in Politics: Can Voters Tell When Politicians are Lying?[/URL] Abstract (summary): In this study, we investigate voters’ unaided perceptions of whether politicians are lying.
