This week’s Ask The Politics Guys question comes from Tyler, in Los Angeles. Tyler asks, “Is there a way to hold our politicians responsible for the words that come out of their mouths? If we have a country where the majority of Americans believe a bunch of half-truths and lies perpetuated by our politicians, I believe it undermines our democracy. How can we make informed voting decisions when there is so much misinformation out there?
I really enjoy your show. I would like to ask a question.
I have always wondered how much influence do lobbyist have in american politics and how are lobbyist affecting the current election cycle? I have heard that the lobbyist are bad because they use money and bribes to change policies that undermine the middle class.
Thanks,
Rich
