      So you’re saying that you would stop believing in articles about what trump did, that include proof, if something that he might have done (and sounds likely) turns out to not have happened?

      Or are you worried that Trump supporters would stop believing? Are they believing now?

        I wouldn’t, though I’m not sure what proof you’re talking about in this specific instance, but I’m not the one that needs convincing. It’s like the boy who cried wolf. If someone reads articles, or only hears from friend or peers, about a person who all turn out to be untrue, why would they believe an article that actually is true?
