Evidence Quote

trust in politics is gone essentially that's that's it's broken and with it has gone trust in institutions that's gone and because of the the political contention for a lot of people trust in their neighbors has gone people just don't trust anymore that's it Grant that's it and yet and yet the thing that amazes me the one place it seems people are still willing to trust blindly is number go up
