Liar in Chief

I thought about fitting this in with another thread. But what the heck. Trump lies so much that there really should be a thread devoted to just posting examples of him lying and getting caught at it. This one is priceless (you just have to watch through about 1 minute 5 seconds in):

No it doesn't belong there because there have been and will be plenty of examples where Trump obviously lies with respect to completely different subject areas and gets caught at it.

I actually did think about posting that video in the Whistleblower thread. But then I thought: "No. This guy lies about EVERYTHING."

Ol' Moscow Mitch has been licking Trump testicles for so long now he won't know how to retreat...

But you start by saying "You know what... I don't recall.."
otherwise you'll get snared in Trumps web of lies

:lol:

Trump supporters on here just want to put all of his lies in one neat tidy thread so they don't seem so numerous or so bad. :nod:

Typical authoritarians.... :ohno:

Hint: Trump supporters don't thinks he's doing anything wrong
So every thread about trump doing something is seen as snowflakes

Nice try but it's a fail. Obama was/is nowhere near as prolific a liar as Trump is. One manifestation of that is the Politifact file on each. For Obama it's 47% of statements evaluated true or mostly true, 24% false or mostly false, and 1% pants on fire.

For Trump it's 15% true or mostly true, 56% false or mostly false, and 14% pants on fire.

Of course I know Trump Cultists will just say Politifact is the "liberal media" (which it is not) with a "liberal bias" (which it does not have).

Another thing: When Obama said that people could keep their doctors we don't know that was a lie because there is a possibility that he thought that would be the case at the time. When Trump says he talked to Mitch McConnell recently about something when he did not we know that is a lie. Trump knew McConnell didn't tell him that. Or when Trump said the NFL sent him a letter expressing concern over the campaign debate schedule and the NFL said "no we didn't." We know Trump knew the NFL didn't send him a letter. Or when Trump stood there and told reporters he didn't know anything about the hush money payments to porn stars and later audio emerged of him discussing it with Cohen. We know that he knew he knew about the payments when he told the reporters he didn't. On and on.

It's not close. Obama is nowhere NEAR as prolific a liar as Trump is. Trump is at a whole 'nuther level when it comes to blatant, bald-faced lying.

There's this thing with Trump fans where they try to point to somebody else and say somebody else was just as bad. But nobody else was just as bad.

I saw that on Seinfeld. Costanza said you can beat the lie detector simply by "...it's not a lie, if you don't think it is". Good stuff.

open disclosure, I watched "Melrose Place" a little bit back then too. :rofl:

We had a very similar situation with the die hards in the Obama camp
Humans are cultists

the percentage of people that are capable of the mental gymnastics
required to parse out the difference is low

45% in this camp
45% in that camp
10% the remaining population are despised as fence sitter lollygagging troglodytes

Well, anectodal evidence be damned, I know literally NO ONE who thinks "Trump has done nothing wrong". I DO know a lot of people who think Trump is being held to a different standard than his predecessors, however.

I also know a lot of people who like what he's done policy-wise.

I'm just being contrary
There are a HUGE percentage of mindless trolls that fall HARD into one camp or the other

No argument with the mindless troll categorization - easily the biggest issue we have, on both sides of the aisle, going forward.

Look,
all Trump had to do was do what EVERY predecessor had been doing for 100 years... submit his taxes
once he decided he was "above the scrutiny" of the people he kicked that door open himself

:nod:

The idea that this is all somehow "thrust" onto him and he's a "victim"
is perhaps the most myopic denial of the obvious I've seen in years

and also kind of funny too...

Trump faces more scrutiny because his predecessors didn't do the stuff he does.

This is all on him and his cronies.
