It is simply amazing to see how freely and easily Trump lies in pubic. I guess it really is easy when neither the Republicans nor his supporters hold him accountable. In essence, his latest BLATANT AND OUTRAGEOUS lie is just a desperate attempt to try and claim that he is keeping yet another failed campaign promise.

Truly sad when folks sit back and watch this individual publicly disgrace an office so rich in history.

"I am not a crook."
"I did not have sex with that woman."
"Iraqis have WMD."
"I will not raise taxes."
"I was out of the loop."

Quotes from recent Presidents, all lies. Gosh, precedents common as horse turds. I'm not saying it's right, just current reality.

So far, Mexico hasn't advanced even a solitary peso. Another flim-flam promise by Donald Chump.

Maybe you should just list trump lies from any single week. You know that he has lied more that any 10 presidents combined, and you say nothing. Currently reality is that you dont give a **** just how much he lies.

Just to clarify, he hasn't finished his term yet and this guy just keeps coming.

In that respect, he's like a liberal.

Are we to judge all presidents entire term(s) based on their first 14 months?

I think you are conflating misunderstandings and lies, but if you must, you must.

If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor. Period!
If you like your plan, you can keep your plan.
The average premium will decrease by $2500 per year. All of these were only the tip of the ice berg in the deception and lies that led to the swindle passage of the ACA.
The demonstration was spontaneous and resulted from a video. This exposed the idiocy that led directly to 4 dead and hundreds of lies to cover it up.
Shovel ready jobs. This fiasco was worth about a thousand lies and a trillion or so dollars.
Beer Summit. One of many of his wedge issue divisive proclamations.
He would look like Travon. And, another one.
You didn't build that. more class warfare and one of many.
Arab Spring. re-framing the string of diplomatic disasters leading to thousands, maybe millions dead.
SOFA. And another step in that general progression of abandoning the Middle East to ISIS, Syria and Mob Rule.

Do you really think that lies are the exclusive province of Trump?

if they proposed eliminating the office and i had a say, i'd probably vote yes. we don't need kings. it's bad enough that we have to choke down the nobility.

Is FOX news the ONLY propaganda outlet that you can recognize as a propaganda outlet?

You can take everything you consider an Obama lie in 8 years and they are far far less than Trumps in a single week.

Everyone talks about amending the Constitution.

It's like the weather. Everyone talks about it, but nobody ever does anything about it.

Parliamentarian rule might be good over here, then, maybe not.

I'd love to see Washington stripped of most of it's power. The best place to start would be in the tax system, though. Starve the beast and the beast will die.

My favorite was the public union members attacking tea party members here I. Wisconsin with palm trees in the background.

Took John Stewart and his crew to catch that. Fox and their drones totally . missed it.

What are the actual costs placed on you as a result of of Trump's "lies"?

What are the lies you see as having been told?

Hey, if Trump says that there are palm trees in Wisconsin, then there must be palm trees in Wisconsin.

And Trump is so good that he was able to go back in time and build his big, beautiful wall starting nine years ago. No doubt Mexico will have paid for it by 1960 or so as well.

DACA.

So Donald Trump lies! What else is new? Friday, March 23, 2018, the lies continued as Trump boldly looked into the cameras and claimed Democrats had abandoned some 800,000 beneficiaries of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, aka, the Dreamers.

I'm sure there are more, as his lips keep moving, but that's a pretty good example.
 
As of 3am Eastern Standard Time on Tuesday, Donald Trump has told 1,628 lies since taking office. We know this because the Washington Post has been diligently watching the numbers, keeping tabs on Trump’s huge fibs and falsehoods. Over the 298 days since his inauguration, Trump has told an average of 5.5 lies every single day of the week, Monday to Sunday. While he barely works weekdays and golfs every weekend, he apparently never takes a vacation from lying.

Now you are making feeble excuses for trump. When Obama was in office you screamed every day that he was lying about something, which he wasn't.

And what does he have us talking about?

Are we talking about the impacts of a looming trade war?

Are we taking about Stormy Daniels?

Are we talking about the Mueller investigation?

Are we even talking about how he will pay for it? We're not even talking about how, in a pique at congress, says he will now scrap DACA?

No. We're talking about how much he lies. Yawn.

Just what he wants

Tramp begged the Congress to pass legislation to correct the situation.

They did not.

Obama did not succeed in this as well.

Trump did not lie. His stated OPINION was that the Democrats scuttled the process and that's very probable. However they acted in concert with their partners, the Republicans.

BOTH parties want the issue- not the solution.

The source you reference stated their OPINION.

I seem to remember a time when you were a reasonable observer of facts. Seems like a long time ago.

and made it clear that they would have to fund the wall as well.

You seem to forget that Congress is dominated by Republicans, the same political party as the president. I believe those are facts and not opinions.

Razor thin margins means "dominated"?

We seem to run around this bush repeatedly: Defining a politician in Washington as either Republican or Democrat is citing a distinction that has no difference.

There are establishment thieves in Congress that have large staffs and huge budgets enriching themselves at our expense with only one goal: to get re-elected.

Why would anyone want to address the issue without also addressing the cause? We "solved" this issue in the Reagan years by granting amnesty and approving border security. Amnesty happened and border security never did.

Now the lying thieves in Congress, and you, exhort the exact, identical approach to the same, exact, identical issue that was never addressed to satisfaction or corrected.

This indicates a deep and ongoing sickness. What end are you hoping the same approach will achieve this time that was missed last time?
