We lied. And we'll ***in do it again

As a hobby politician, i know it's easy to make promises and it's too easy to get elected on empty promises. Making well founded and well based promises for things that you will definitely be able to do is harder, and your promises look pale in comparison to the people who'll give you rivers of milk and honey. So you gotta play on your ambition and kick it up into the realm of possibilities beyond your control but, just as with populists it means some of what you wanted to do simply wasn't possible, and that just makes it look like politicians are all liars. But if you don't, the populists gets more votes and that's s bad thing because they never intended anything good in the first place. The answer is a more involved and balanced media who dares to question leaders.
