    I must agree that Trump has a way with hyperbole and self-aggrandizement - but he doesn't lie.

    Obama was a consummate liar.

    Bush had others do his lying for him.
    .
    Clinton did not have sex with that woman - Monica Lewinsky

    I read Bushes lips.

    No, Trump just said something bad about POWs. In this case, he used fallen soldiers to jab at his predecessors - and he lied.

    The hero worshipping isn't being exhibited by this basketball coach. It's being put on full display by the Trump supporters who can't be honest.

    Whatever, why does he even have to brag about it? Why not just write letters or call without making it public? That's what someone would do who actually cares. Of course, since he only cares about himself, this kind of behavior is expected.

    BTW: Trump himself backtracked on the comment regarding the previous presidents. So, I guess Trump himslef is calling your rationalization about his comments "fake news".

    You are really reaching now

    I agree tht bush was pretty good about meeting the fallen soldiers at Dover and consoling he families

    Obama not so much

    And the mther of at least one of the dead at Bengazi had never forgiven hillary for lying to her to her face

    I'm not reaching. I'm stating facts. You didn't object to Trump denigrating POWs. You worship Trump too much to ever criticize him.

    Don't deflect to Obama and Clinton. They aren't the subject here. The subject is Trump's lie. He was caught in it, and right away he had to walk it back.

    Any President who ignores 4 dead soldiers for 2 1/2 weeks isn't patriotic. You know it and I know it. The difference is, I say it. You just make excuses for the man. That's what hero worshipping is all about.

    "I've been amazed and disappointed by so much of what this President had said, and his approach to running this country, which seems to be one of just a never ending divisiveness.

    But his comments today about those who have lost loved ones in times of war and his lies that previous presidents Obama and Bush never contacted their families, is so beyond the pale, I almost don't have the words.


    This man in the Oval Office is a soulless coward who thinks that he can only become large by belittling others. This has of course been a common practice of his, but to do it in this manner–and to lie about how previous Presidents responded to the deaths of soldiers–is as low as it gets.

    We have a pathological liar in the White House: unfit intellectually, emotionally, and psychologically to hold this office and the whole world knows it, especially those around him every day. The people who work with this President should be ashamed because they know it better than anyone just how unfit he is, and yet they choose to do nothing about it. This is their shame most of all."


    Liptak noted Trump's comments Monday were the first time he's publicly spoken about the four deaths. Liptak also explained "the tradition of presidents reaching out after US servicemen are killed in action is long-established," despite Trump's assertion his immediate predecessors didn't take as much action as he did.

    This is not the first time Popovich—who served in the Air Force—has criticized Trump.

    (Trump is just a grandstanding LIAR.)

    Actually, he's one of the many veterans who hate Trump for his stupid remarks about veterans.

    It is.....nothing more than another Mope with TDS. Despite Being an Air Force Vet. He leans left, way left. Out past the Bleachers and out of the Ballpark.




    When it was announced that Trump had won the presidency back in November, Popovich mentioned that he was "sick to his stomach" because of the "xenophobic, homophobic, racist, misogynistic" things Trump had uttered prior to being elected.
    Popovich has also called America "an embarrassment" to the rest of the world, if only because of Trump's residence in the Oval Office. He's even questioned how Trump voters could possibly continue to support a man who continuously crosses moral and ethical boundaries.

    Message to Popabitch......Concentrate on that game you play. You already have enough trouble getting an orange ball into a hoop. Let alone try and handle anything grown ups are dealing with.

    So save the double dribble Poppo, and remember what consequences comes your way for opening up your TDS piehole.

    He's using dead soldiers to lie about Obama and other presidents to make himself look good. Trump is a piece of inhuman garbage.

    He's more successful than you are and an American citizen and a vet - why shouldn't he be able to have an opinion that he shares - just like you do ... and gods, do you share your opinion ... over and over and over ...
    But here you are threatening him for sharing his opinion. You are a real hypocrite, aren't you (not a question).

    And that was a lie. many presidents in the past called "gold star" families during their Presidencies. Clinton, Bush Jr., and Obama often invited the to the whitehouse to meet personally.

    The San Antonio Spurs are a slimy organization. Twice in their history they have intentionally lost games to get a high draft pick (David Robinson and Tim Duncan).

    How is he more successful than I am. What because he is NBA Coach. He's a Vet, huh. So am I. He is a Vet that leans left. Way left. He has mental disorder.

    Hence opening his Pie hole and calling Trump a coward. Yet wont do it in front of Trump with the face to face.

    Maybe he should get his tongue out of BO peeps ass before sounding off, like a mope.

    Oh now I was threatening him. See that's the problem with you leftists. Your mental disorder gets in the way of processing what a threat is. Saying he has to suffer the consequences for jumping out in the limelight with this. Will bring consequences. Just like it does for everybody else.

    Try not to be like Krugman and wake up with dread every day. Okay, lil fella.

    Yeah but this isn't the Organization making a Statement.....this is just leftist. Like those we have here. He just pulled what we see here everyday.

    Consider Poppo just jumping in a thread and whining out Trump is a coward. Like a good lil leftist. He will bring the disrespect, do some namecalling. Until confronted.

    I guess the good part is.....he wont be able to change the excuse over punctuation or grammar.

    He's more successful than you because he doesn't spend his days posting drivel on some board from grandma's basement, little pup.
    And your telling him to get his tongue out of Obama's ass is rich considering your permanent Trump butt-hole lipstick.

    Trump a "soulless coward"?

    Coach Pop declares that "1+1=2" and that "The Ocean contains Water".

    As expected, Trump fans starting to personally attack anyone and any organization that dares to criticize Trump.

    I wonder if they'll have anyone they haven't attacked after those 4 years are over. I doubt it, because trump just can't get along with people. Since he always has to win at any cost, most people he deals with end up as adversaries, which makes them adversaries to his fans too.

    And, I suspect much more importantly, Trump was critical of the actions of pro football, Popovich's personal territory. . How dare that "soulless coward" do that.

    Trump's point was hardly anything worth comment, it's obvious Popovich was already looking for something to take issue with, an excuse to turn his personal point of view into nasty news. To hell with facts or figures to address the statement. That isn't the real point anyway, it's just the opportunity- so let's just go directly to blatant slander, the new popular standard of respectability for political criticism by the left.
    Get more news coverage that way.

    Oh you mean he doesn't have the time. Imagine that. Do you know if had kids? Is a good father? How much of a success was he at that?

    My Grandmother is dead. My Mother is dead. Most of my partners from NAM didn't make it home. They are dead. Most of those I grew up in the hood with, are Dead. So you can save the **** about any of my people. But then that's what you lightweight lefties are all about. Until you run into my kind.

    Unlike you I wasn't raised in a sheltered backyard with a mommy and a daddy to leave me anything. It was done on all on my lonesome.

    That's the difference between me, you and YOUR MAN Poppo, along with your BO peep. See I have no trouble getting into a face to face and saying whatever Right then and there. Unlike your kind that always throws from anywhere....anywhere but Right in front of that face.

    Oh and btw....Its not pup. Its Cur!

    Popovich became coach in 1996. Robinson was the draft pick in 1987. Popovich wasn't there then. They failed in the 1997 season because of Robinson being injured and ended up in 3rd to last place that year, and in the lottery they won the #1 pick.

    What does any of that have to do with Popovich anyway? He didn't speak on behalf of his team.

    Dude - I've worked for 35 years straight, no government assistance, no unemployment, no parents to hold my hand - so please stop with the macho BS and thinking your so special that roses grow from your butt. Being a Trump FanBoy doesn't make you special.
