Donald Trump's return to the presidency has been marked by an immediate repetition of misleading claims, notably about the justice department. Critics argue that this trend is both habitual and strategic, with Trump using misinformation to undermine public trust in institutions. His inaugural address included false assertions regarding crime and immigration, echoing the reckless disregard for truth observed in his previous term, during which he made over 30,000 false or misleading claims. As he resumes office, many fear the implications of this continued mendacity for American democracy.
