    "Who the hell cares about the budget? We're going to have a country," Trump said, according to The Washington Post, which published the remarks over the weekend.

    In the past. I posted the entire page he had on how he'd get Mexico to pay for wall.
    It was a 3 day plan.

    How do supporters not know what the man says? Maybe it's why supporters aren't aware of lies he tells?

    LOL! You provided a list of Trump "promises" without a source or quotes from Trump. Now you provide a quote from Trump stating the obvious truth about the budget. It is not a promise.
    Do you have an example of a Trump promise regarding the budget and the trade deficit? Or not? :)

    What you need to find is something like this from Trump 'I promise to balance the budget and end the trade deficit.' So far you are only providing evidence he was clearly not inclined to make such a promise.

    Perjury is a serious crime - not serious enough, IMO, to impeach a sitting president.

    You do not comprehend the difference between lying and not meeting goals, and I suspect have no desire to.

    There is no record of anyone saying that before he did. Those were his words.

    I do understand what a lie is.
    And tRUMP certainly stated many. Making a statement with no intention of fulfilling said statement is a lie. Simple.

    I showed you he had a plan. And he has no intention on following through on that plan.

    We’re a debtor nation. We’ve got to get rid of — I talked about bubble. We’ve got to get rid of the $19 trillion in debt.

    BW: How long would that take?

    DT: I think I could do it fairly quickly, because of the fact the numbers . . . .

    BW: What’s fairly quickly?

    DT: Well, I would say over a period of eight years. And I’ll tell you why.

    Ty for the good citation.

    As I thought Trump was not foolish enough to promise anything regarding the budget and deficits. He speculated that the debt could be eliminated in 8 years.

    Of course, the budget could be balanced immediately - but not by Trump.

    Trump assumed that the Congress would cooperate with him on the budget.
    He was a political novice.

    There is a distinct difference between embellishing and ************ that Trump hs done his whole life vs coordinated strategic fabrications and lies that Warren has said. She is NOT a native, knew she wasn’t a native and certainly used it to get a job. She was NOT fired for being pregnant. She lies to pander for votes. They aren’t exaggerations or campaign promises that we always know are BS.

    Crowders video explains it quite precisely back on the first page.

    WRONG.:bored:

    Why are you making stuff up?

    Here is the Full Context of Trump's Remark:

    Donald Trump makes a comment about his current momentum at a campaign stop in Sioux City, Iowa:

    "You know what else they say about my people? The polls, they say I have the most loyal people. Did you ever see that? Where I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose any voters, okay? It’s like incredible," Trump said.


    ___________

    Your FAKE "Narrative" (about those were the "media's words") is Completely WRONG.

    Glad to be of help in clearing that up for you.

    Anyway, as far as Warren and the OP Topic:

    Sadly, for what remains of her supporters, Liz is becoming increasingly irrelevant.

    Things like "Pocahontas" don't even matter anymire, b/c Liz is toast.

    You were not aware he even had a plan.
    So I know he doesn't plan to follow through, because many of his supporters don't even know he had a plan to get Mexico to pay.
    And there is nothing in place to get Mexico to pay.

    Mexico is paying for the wall just like President Trump said they would.

    President Trump: "Mexico will pay for the wall, directly or indirectly".

    New trade deal means Mexico is paying for the wall. Trump redid trade deals that have put more money in our coffers and are of direct benefit to American citizens.

    Fun fact: Mexico moved troops to our Southern border to stem the tide of illegals coming across.

    President Trump is so articulate and such a great negotiator, he actually got a foreign country to move an army to the border to stop illegals crossing into out country.

    Funny how Democrats are furious over this. Mexico is working with our President and doing more than Democrats working in our own government. Democrats are actively working to overthrow this Administration for because he isn't part of the political establishment and he is a danger to their source of power and control.

    He was a political novice.[/QUOTE]I don't think a highly successful New York commercial real estate developer can be a novice. But he did make some novice errors early on, like thinking he could mend some opposition fences by keeping or appointing opposition people and some less than supportive "friends." He learned his mistake quickly but fixing it takes much longer.

    Trump obviously underestimated the extent of the resistance to any significant reform of our now very corrupt political system. He apparently had to see it to believe it.
    Now we are all seeing it 24/7 - in HD.

    I've asked this before, but you might have missed it.........Bill Clinton committed 2 felonies that he was impeached for, yet the Democrat Senate still acquitted him for it. What Felonies did Trump commit, please be specific complete with statute.

    He didn't just lie under oath to a Federal Grand Jury to deny Paula Jones's rights under the law, he also tampered with a prospective witness to get them to lie too. Both those things are felonies. What Felonies did Trump commit, please be specific complete with statute.

    I am probably as surprised as you are that after 3 years of non-stop investigations by the FBI/MI6/CIA/DOJ/NASA/MSM/FISA/ALPHABET/Congress...., not a single crime has been uncovered.
