It was the late great Catholic Daniel Patrick Moynihan who famously said, "You are entitled to your own opinion, but you are not entitled to your own facts." Now we have an administration who claims to be in possession of so-called "alternative facts," what other people simply call lies, and they present them on a daily basis. It is said that in war truth is always the first casualty. Trump hasn't started a war yet, but already truth has gone completely out the window. In that sense he and Pontius Pilate, who flippantly asked Jesus, "what is truth?" have a lot in common: they're both dissemblers. Jesus recognized Pilate for what he was and he'd have no trouble recognizing the same in our current president.
