“Trust in politicians is down over 98%”
INSUFFICIENT EVIDENCE
The claim states trust in politicians is down 'over 98%'. However, the provided evidence from CBS regarding a 2025 survey in the Netherlands explicitly states that '21 percent of people aged 15 and over had a high degree or fair degree of trust in politicians'. This directly contradicts the claim that trust has dropped by over 98% (which would imply trust is below 2%).
