Not an American, but I can totally relate with that. Some politicians in my country have taken a page from Trump's playbook since 2016 and have started telling blatant lies on TV, the kind that are supposed to be easily refuted by any one with half a brain, and not getting any serious pushback. It took me a long time to get past the "Wait, they can't do that, that's not how it works!" phase
