It's one thing to have a difference of opinion, but I think that politicians that lie outrageously should be kicked out of office, stripped of their benefits, and barred from running again. Yes, call me idealistic, but I am so sick of reading weird outlandish statements by state and federal level elected officials.
One quick example that comes to mind is this ridiculousness about abortions after birth.
Yes, the electorate can be dumb, but polits should not be able to play into it.

@ChippySuave It used to be the media, and voters would condemn such blatant lies, and the Politician would have enough morales to be ashamed.
Now being able to lie with sincerity is considered a virtue and Politicians are finding out they do not nee the media anymore except to spread their lies and propaganda because the media is too afraid about losing access
@ChippySuave I second that.
