The faker-in-chief: No single day without a lie

[Sir Mohamed]

The Trumpster can now officially be called the faker-in-chief. After one month, there isn't A SINGLE day, he hasn't put out a lie. On some days, it's more than a handfull of falsehoods: Washington Post. Please clap for our first orange president.

[Grumpier Than Thou]

Fake news! Sad!

[Meclazine for Israel]

Poor old Trumpy.

It would appear you can lead an ungrateful left wing populous to water, but cannot make them drink.

[OneJ]

How in the hell can you get away with this much lying and not be impeached yet (or get elected in the first place)?

Not everyone lives in JonesTrumptown and drinks his KoolAid.

Maybe people are starting to tune him out. So much garbage comes out of him that we are becoming immune to it.

He doesn't have a (D) after his name and he hasn't deleted a bunch of e-mails to warrant thousands of investigations and hearings and other witch hunts. Had Hillary won*, the Republicans would have started holding hearings and preparations for impeachment as soon as it was announced that she had won.

Lying is not a crime in itself unless it constitutes perjury or fraud, involves obstruction of justice, or as part of a war crime.

Lying about one's behavior while under investigation for a crime may not be what one is convicted of, but just remember the FBI technique of inducing a suspect to tell self-serving lies that other testimony or evidence already collected contradicts.

The lies that the President tells damage the competence of his Administration and the good will of the American People.  These go beyond statements of some unpopular ideology.

The Republicans are good at making people's lives miserable and also at wasting time and money. They win bigly at this behavior. Talk about a bunch of babies....

Plenty of the "lies" are only "lies" from certain points of view.

[pbrower2a]

We can presume a lie if its presenter

(1) tells a falsehood in seriousness, and

(2) has no legitimate reason for believing that it is the truth.



This leaves room for errors, delusions, hallucinations, jokes, ideological bias, and deliberate fiction.

1 - America is not a "left wing populous."

2 - The country isn't that warm on Trumpy and never has been. We're not interested in what he's got to sell. Bigotry, incompetence, and thin skin is not in high demand.
