Is Truth Whatever One Wishes To Believe?

Is Truth Whatever One Wishes To Believe?
Donald Trump is a great president.
Donald Trump is a nightmare.
Brexit is good, one can argue.
Brexit is bad, one can argue.
 
How to discern the truth
Through newspaper headlines
And lies?
Fake news.  Hoaxes.
Society’s falling apart.
 
Or is it?  Look at those lies.
Those damned lies
And then the statistics
The crime rate’s up.
The crime rate’s down.
 
Global warming is a reality
Or it isn’t.
Who knows?
 
Is Truth Whatever One Wishes To Believe?
