    Default Trump and Truth

    I watched when the World Trade Center came tumbling down. And I watched in Jersey City, New Jersey, where thousands and thousands of people were cheering as that building was coming down. - Trump speech, Nov. 21 2015, Birmingham, Ala.

    Next day on ABC This Week:

    "It was on television. I saw it."

    There is no known TV footage of thousands of people in NJ cheering on 9/11; and if there is, nobody but Trump remembers seeing it.


    My father was German, born in a ... very ... wonderful ... place ... in Germany. - Trump press conference, Apr. 2 2019.

    This was at least the third time he said this on the record.

    His father was born in the Bronx.


    In addition to winning the Electoral College in a landslide, I won the popular vote if you deduct the millions of people who voted illegally. - Trump tweet, Nov. 27 2016.

    After his inauguration (which drew the hugest crowd ever), Trump formed a Commission to track down these millions of illegal voters. Maybe they were lost in the crowd; anyway they were never found.


    Just landed ... everybody can now feel much safer than the day I took office. There is no longer a Nuclear Threat from North Korea. - Trump tweet, Jun. 13 2018.

    Kim Jong-un has up to 50 nuclear weapons plus successfully tested ICBMs. But Trump trusts him, so we can all relax .


    When I took over our military, we did not have ammunition. I was told by a top general, "Sir ... we don’t have ammunition." - Trump press conference, Oct. 7 2019.

    The United States spent over $600 billion on the military in 2016. None of it went on ammunition?

    AND

    You haven’t gotten one [pay raise] in more than 10 years. More than 10 years! - Trump to service members, Dec. 26 2018.

    The military have had pay raises every year since 1961.

    Thank you for the link to "Freedom Outpost", Truth Deflector! One article in particular caught my eye:

    Patriots Rained On Hillary’s Parade… & Her House
    https://freedomoutpost.com/patriots-...ade-her-house/

    Sample paragraph:
    "We showed up at Hillary’s house on the Sunday before Memorial Day and we called for her indictment. We spent time on our knees praying for her and for her repentance. We called on God to deliver swift Justice to her and then to save her soul while she sits in prison."

    Do you think it occurred to these patriots to wonder why TRUMP hasn't had Hillary indicted? For years he's been declaring that Hillary is an arch-criminal. He wouldn't say that unless he had solid evidence, would he? Such a truthful fellow! So why doesn't he give Barr the go-ahead? Is it misplaced Christian forbearance?

    He lies because he is a pathological liar. He is very successful at it. The Reichtards lap it up and beg for more. They've been taught that any rebuttal to TRE45ON's continuous falsehoods (i.e., the truth) is "fake news." He says what the marks want to hear. It works -- for him.

    I must have missed being "taught" any rebuttal to Trump is "fake news." Seems to me any rebuttal to Trump comes with unconscionable hatred, lies of being racist, homophobic, and anything else the left can conjure up. Of course, you left wing zealots make up lies about his supporters too. BTW, when was the last time you called a conservative a conservative instead of one of your patented childish names?
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    I am amused that you think the BS you post here constitutes thinking. Would you like to debate a topic; or merely cry like a little baby about everything? I'd put my thinking above yours any day snowflake. Name the topic.

    Well, she wasn't indicted, which means she wasn't convicted or acquitted. According to my understanding, that means she could still be indicted. If not for that, then for serial murder, selling uranium to Russia, running a pedophile ring, or any of the other "crimes" that you dumb believers prattle on about.

    So why hasn't Trump done it?


    Obviously you are not very smart or educated
    True, I didn't graduate from Wharton with grades so brilliant that my attorneys have threatened the law on anyone who discloses them.

    While I admit Trump tells a lot of lies. How many Americans died due to the above lies in your post?


    Now how many Americans died due to the following lie?

    Gulf of Tonkin Incident
    August 4, 1964
    My fellow Americans: - As President and Commander in Chief, it is my duty to the American people to report that renewed hostile actions against United States ships on the high seas in the Gulf of Tonkin have today required me to order the military forces of the United States to take action in reply.
    The initial attack on the destroyer Maddox, on August 2, was repeated today by a number of hostile vessels attacking two U.S. destroyers with torpedoes. The destroyers and supporting aircraft acted at once on the orders I gave after the initial act of aggression. We believe at least two of the attacking boats were sunk. There were no U.S. losses.
    The performance of commanders and crews in this engagement is in the highest tradition of the United States Navy. But repeated acts of violence against the Armed Forces of the United States must be met not only with alert defense, but with positive reply. That reply is being given as I speak to you tonight. Air action is now in execution against gunboats and certain supporting facilities in North Viet-Nam which have been used in these hostile operations.
