How do we recover from what's happening?

Even if we regain one of the branches, his do we recover as a society when half the population believes up is down, right is wrong, etc.?

4. Short answer: Prove it, or you're lying

Five words, that's all it takes.

Certainly there is ample evidence of people hired to cheer at Trump rallies. There are plenty of contemporaneous reports of the Koch boys (by way of Americans for Prosperity and other, even shadier "non-profit" organizations) chartering buses and providing signs to Tea Bagger rallies. Where is there similar evidence that anyone was paid to turn out for the WomensMarch or any other anti-Trump demonstration? Spoiler alert, there isn't any.

Prove it, or you're lying.
