Not just Trump either
Because the entire house of cards is built upon these lies and fake public personas. With Trump for example, think about how many millions of people support him despite him being a complete stranger to them. This support exists because of what they feel when they think of Trump and these lies are designed to make them feel that way. The same is true for all politicians.
What does it mean when I feel nothing but I just want to move to canada (not polotical reasons I just really like it there)
It means you’re part polar bear.

What in god’s green earth is kayfabe?
It is basically always being in character.
In order to be honest you need a Jesus-like or maybe even good Samaritan level of discipline for longer than you’ve probably even wanted to be in politics to avoid the media being able to cut you down, that is if you’re not one of their preferred candidates; which if you’re honest, you’re not.
Zohran is probably as close as I’ve seen to someone who accepts tough questions and responds with honesty. He’s basically a saint though and that’s not very common. Even considering that they’re going after his wife for pretty based stances. Honesty, in short, is not rewarded with our political and media-driven landscape, unless you make them look stupid just by virtue of the nothing burgers they bring to bear. Otherwise you’re better off giving the razzle dazzle and moving on, or lying convincingly and picking and choosing what you admit to like some other good candidates probably do.
Because then you unite the two groups in the US. Revolts and revolutions happen and are a real threat if the citizens unite. Keep us separated and fighting amongst ourselves and the status quo with them is power stays the same.
Didn’t a president say we need a revolution about every 20 years or so?
Because they are the ones in power. Whatever they say is the “official” version. Therefore, the correct one.
If the media says something different from the government, that’s because the media is leftist propaganda.
Take into account how stupid the median person is, then realize half the people is stupider than that. It’s not hard to convince them to vote against their best interest, you just have to lie.

As he tries to channel the spirit of George Carlin…
The answer used to be because they want votes, but democracy is out the windows now
Even without democracy, power depends on the will of the in group to not conspire and kill the ruler. Every strong man knows this. They must keep the appearances or some other stronger person could gain the will to challenge and break them.
Google “doing a Ratner”. When those in power are honest the mewling masses come unglued.
