    I study liars. I've never seen one like Donald Trump.

    http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/commentary/ct-donald-trump-liar-20171208-story,amp.html

    In Trump's first 298 days in office, however, he made 1,628 false or misleading claims or flip-flops, by The Post's tally. That's about six per day, far higher than the average rate in our studies. And of course, reporters have access to only a subset of Trump's false statements — the ones he makes publicly — so unless he never stretches the truth in private, his actual rate of lying is almost certainly higher.'>>>

    One thing we have learned over and over again about
    Lying Donnie: He likes to lie. Lying Donnie complains
    about fake news, but he fails to mention that he is often the
    source of the fake news. Usually a politician will lie to
    suit a particular agenda, but Lying Donnie lies just about
    everything and anything.

    A lying sex pervert Russian money launderer is what the US voters got for their POTUS.

    That's not considering other Donald Trump crimes that Mueller is currently investigating.

    Trump has corrupted and perverted the moral fabric of the USA.

    Trump has become the First Perpetual Sinner.

    Not a fan of either, but that doesn't change the objective fact that Trump is a serial liar and his followers are forced to constantly changing the subject because they are incapable of defending the man on his own merit.

    You aren't going to hear any argument from me about Obama. That doesn't magically transform Trump's lies into the truth. Trump's lies are still lies. No amount of, "Bu . . but look over there!!!!!" can change that fact.

    Thank you, Sir! :beer:

    That snippet was the final few paragraphs of the article. It's worth a click if you didn't. The rest of it is absolutely dead on.

    Well said. Trump spouts off spontaneously and doesn't check facts. And then you have this ...



    It's not the same thing.

    Trump lies ALL the time..about big things and small. Yea...that IS just the way he is.

    That's psychotic.

    Why is lying an issue? Because it is about trust.

    How can you possibly trust someone that YOU admit is incapable of telling the truth EVER...

    Trump has been far more than just an innocent blow hard, as far as anyone who cares about the truth and about free speech is concerned. He's sued people for telling the truth about his businesses. He's lied to the public constantly. No amount of Clinton hate (even the most well-deserved Clinton hate) makes those facts magically disappear.

    If you think that anything Clinton has said excuses his lies, then you don't actually care about the truth.

    Never mind Trump lying about his own fake near-death experience. No. His lies don't matter, obviously.
