当政客告诉谎言时，他们知道媒体会召集他们。他们也知道这没关系。政客们了解，理由在投票决策中永远不会发挥作用。使选民感到良好的谎言比一百个理性的论点更有效。当选民知道谎言是谎言时，甚至是事实。
(When politicians tell lies, they know the press will call them out. They also know it doesn't matter. Politicians understand that reason will never have much of a role in voting decisions. A lie that makes a voter feel good is more effective than a hundred rational arguments. That's even true when the voter knows the lie is a lie.)
