Happy Easter

Trump Disciples revel in every one of his lies.

Because Integrity.

Of all the things that Trump has done and will do, the lies are the worst. They do more to erode truth and divide the country than anything he will ever do because we will never know that if the day ever comes and he tells the truth, will we believe him?

It’s like the logic puzzle where you want to know whether the road leads to the village and you meet someone who either tells the truth all the time or lies all the time. You ask him, “If I were to ask you whether this road leads to the village, would you answer yes?”

Like Cadet Bonespurs has the guts to actually have a press conference.

Who’s had more press conferences, the cartoon President or the loony tune currently in the White House?

It’s sad that we have to count his lies while he destroys the environment.

No President tells the truth all the time but most tell the truth sometime. Until now.

Wow! This is truly impressive today! Exceptionally creative and well developed! Thank you!

To be honest, I’m surprised Mark’s and Rick’s credentials weren’t pulled yet.

“If I decide to run for office, I’ll produce my tax returns, absolutely. And I would love to do that.” – Trump

And now he’s ready to go to court so he doesn’t have to do something he claimed he would LOVE to do.

10,000th lie? Probably took about 10 minutes after swearing in (the first set of lies).

On September 19, 1926, H. L. Mencken wrote: “No one in this world, so far as I know — and I have searched the records for years, and employed agents to help me — has ever lost money by underestimating the intelligence of the great masses of the plain people. Nor has anyone ever lost public office thereby.” That last sentence explains the stunning horror of the 2016 election and the premonition one gets when considering the possibilities in the 2020 election.

Another 90000, and he will be approaching Obama’s level!

Everyone around Trump lies, the White House has no credibility what so ever.

They need to be removed from office, you can not run a country on lies!

he’s incapable of telling the truth

Trump has another 10,000 free lance lies that no one bothered to document,

the man is insane.

If you like your insurance you can keep it,

I did not have sex with that woman, We will never have more than 2%GDP,

“Truth isn’t in you, Al.” (Farnum to Swearengen)

Lies didn’t seem to affect Clinton nor Obama. And they were more egregious.

When I was in my early twenties I was present for a magazine interview given by my employer, a prominent naval architect, on problems facing the industry. He was asked what the biggest problem facing the industry might be. His reply stunned everyone in the room to silence. He said that the biggest problem facing industry and the nation was the casual use of the lie. That the casual misrepresentation of facts commonly used in advertising were now seeping with alarming frequency into the forum of public debate AND BEING ACCEPTED AS A TOOL OF POLITICS (emphasis mine) and would eventually cause lasting damage to democracy. That was 1972, Nixon was president, and his two top advisers had been recruited from Madison Ave. advertising firms.

Illustrates just how the media hears what they want to hear but not what is being said. – How fake news is created. SAD!

Does it count when he contracts out the lies to Sarah Sanders?

Probably should add another zero to the total.

Wow, like the old play ground days. No need for facts just say anything you want and let other people sort it out. You will either be loved or hated. I liked the old say ‘yes’ if you mean ‘no’ game. It can go on for hours.

MAGA, Baby!

10,000 documented lies?

OK. Document them!

Captain Kirk to the robot/cyborg thing: “Everything I say is a lie. Was I telling the truth when I said that?” (Robots head explodes, or melts, or something.)

Tedious recitation of closely-held convictions of a group is clever only for members of that group. Humor demands more.

Liars know what the truth is and are just lying about it. Bulls#i##3rs don’t know or care what the truth is. They couldn’t tell you the truth even if your threatened them with bodily harm. Trump is unable to lie effectively because he is too lazy to find out what the facts are ( which is also why he can’t have any policy detail.) So, consequently, Trump is not a liar so much as a BSer.

All this arguing about this is just hyperboly in many ways.

One thing that I believe I can say that both Democrats and Republicans can (hopefully) agree upon is that our current president is utterly unlike any previous president in demeanor and in congeniality. I suspect that both sides either in public or in their private thoughts hope that we are able to have a new leader elected in 2020 that will better represent our nation, our whole citizenry, and will help guide us into a better, safer, and calmer future.

Iran/Contra- Reagan had a lie. Bush/Cheney- the Saddam lie. Bush senior-Noreiga lie as Meese set him up in the drug business. Trump, thousands of lies, and while the others destroyed other countries and governments, Bonespurs is destroying THIS country.

BLOTUS = Biggest Liar of the United States

Time for impeachment for obstruction of justice, emolument clause issues, business conflict of interests, fraud, etc. Time for our gaslit nation to renew itself once again.

Please don’t feed the trolls – and it looks like we have a few new ones tossing out their bait.

He is such a Compulsive Liar that, when he Dies, his Corpse will continue to Breathe.

It only took Bill clinton two weeks to reach that level.

Sama-el is the “prince of lies” but the King of Lies is our president.

When the Dear Leader was on the road to Damascus, NJ, one day when he was a young man, he met an angel with a flaming sword who said, “Thou shalt become the most prolific and least believable liar known to man. Thy prevarication shall become the stuff of legend. I use the second person singular in addressing thee because thou dost not warrant the respect conferred by the plural.”

Would we be any better off if the other person had won? The Clintons have been described as chronic liars.

He was just kidding…
