Trump's presidential campaign has given a lot of flashbacks from 2003. Like Bush and Iraq war, it's clear that everything he says is based on a lie. And I'm sure most of his biggest supporters (if they have any clue about world) know that it's based on a lie. Yet they don't care. In fact it makes them support Trump even harder. Much like in 2003, the more evidence came out that Saddam didn't in fact have given support to Al Qaida or Osama, or that he didn't have any weapons of mass destruction, the more fierce and loud the war supporters became. And like people have reminisced in this thread, during the 2004 elections lies were spread about Kerry's wartime accomplishments and Bush's draft dodging. After Iraq it seems that it somehow became expected that people are being lie to. And people accepted that they are being lie to, it doesn't matter anymore. They will vote you anyway. To me this is the legacy of 9/11 and Iraq.
