It's beginning to appear that it really is a disease with a lot of conservatives,

[Frank Apisa]

"CNN's Anderson Cooper confronted Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) late Monday, questioning whether the conservative lawmaker believes President Trump lies."

"You got to admit, this president has said things which are just demonstrably not true time and time again. The list is a very long one, almost on a daily basis," Cooper said."

"Jordan shot back, saying former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe "has said things that aren't true."

"So you're very bold in calling out Andrew McCabe, not so bold on the president of the United States," Cooper said. "You haven't heard the president lie?"

"Jordan said the president has always been "square" with him. When pressed on whether Trump has ever lied to the American people, Jordan said voters elected Trump to the White House."

"Have you ever heard the president lie?" Cooper asked again."

"I have not," Jordan said."

"Jordan said "nothing comes to mind" when asked again whether the president has ever said something publicly that is a lie."

This guy has never had a reputation for being credible, but how dumb does he think his followers are?

Jim Jordan is a jerkoff.

Anderson Cooper should have laid that line on him, "So he could take a dump on your desk and you would defend him for doing so."

[Nordberg]

Jordan had a huge body of Trump lies to work with. Denying that Trump lies is saying a lot about himself. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/...umps-lies.html Jordan made a fool out himself. But as this thread shows, the Repubs fall in line.

Trump snowflakes are fun to watch, it is amazing the power the man has over the republicans, they are afraid of a base that votes and votes regardless of commonsense.

"It’s easy to laugh, as some of us do, at the phrase “conservative intellectual.” When the most prominent public spokesmen for the right’s ideas include Milo Yiannopoulos, Charles Murray, and Dinesh D’Souza, one might conclude that the movement does not have anything serious to offer beyond “Feminism is cancer,” “Black people are dumb,” and “Democrats are Nazis.” (Those are, as I understand it, the central intellectual contributions of Yiannopoulos, Murray, and D’Souza, respectively.)

“The trick never ages; the illusion never wears off. Vote to stop abortion; receive a rollback in capital gains taxes. Vote to make our country strong again; receive deindustrialization. Vote to screw those politically correct college professors; receive electricity deregulation. Vote to get government off our backs; receive conglomeration and monopoly everywhere from media to meatpacking. Vote to stand tall against terrorists; receive Social Security privatization. Vote to strike a blow against elitism; receive a social order in which wealth is more concentrated than ever before in our lifetimes, in which workers have been stripped of power and CEOs are rewarded in a manner beyond imagining.” Thomas Frank, What's the Matter With Kansas?: How Conservatives Won the Heart of America


Trump lies etc: http://www.politifact.com/personalities/donald-trump/

"The moment we no longer have a free press, anything can happen. What makes it possible for a totalitarian or any other dictatorship to rule is that people are not informed; how can you have an opinion if you are not informed? If everybody always lies to you, the consequence is not that you believe the lies, but rather that nobody believes anything any longer. This is because lies, by their very nature, have to be changed, and a lying government has constantly to rewrite its own history. On the receiving end you get not only one lie—a lie which you could go on for the rest of your days—but you get a great number of lies, depending on how the political wind blows. And a people that no longer can believe anything cannot make up its mind. It is deprived not only of its capacity to act but also of its capacity to think and to judge. And with such a people you can then do what you please." Hannah Arendt http://www.nybooks.com/articles/1978...-an-interview/

Many have wondered why Cooper has never been credible yet still gets to keep its job. It does know just how dumb and stupid his followers are. I'll give it that.

It appears fatal as well.

When? The sooner the better!

Well, we are talking about TRUMP voters, so...

Astounding how blatant the lying is that the GOP does to cover for Trump these days.

Ah, let me help you out there "super," it was your man Jordan there who openly denied the obvious, as I noted, a whole lot of conservatives, especially their public figures, have a hard time with honesty, and the only poor soils they are fooling are the likes of yourself, kinda tragic, in a Joseph Heller way

Super is over on another thread whining because he can't get anyone to discuss the OP.

Yet on THIS thread, he won't discuss the OP.

Help me out, what do they call people like that again?

[Gotcha68]

Trump is a bold faced liar. He doesn't try to hide it because he knows his supporters and care takers will attempt to square the hole and hide it for him no matter the contortions they must subject themselves to.

Assholes like you.

Assholes like you.

Awwwwwwww...

Who's the little butthurt Trumpkin?

You must just get sick sometimes of having to sit by quietly and eat all the shit Trump serves, then sit back and smile while he loads you up another plate.

All the whining you GOP crybabies did during the Obama Presidency and now you've got to defend a moron who makes Obama look like Einstein.

Yup, Karma's a bitch, ain't she?

Infidelity to truth is antithetical to conservatism.

PLEASE do not substitute the word conservative for the word Republican. The Republican political party is not politically conservative.

Willful ignorance.

A big problem from this lying is that it hurts the USA.

Ironically, hurting the USA does not make it greater. Lying by our leaders makes America less great.

This man is a terrible president, and everyone who looks the other way because they think they are getting something good out of it is guilty of making America less great.

A nation's spirit is a terrible thing to waste.

The damage caused by this will go far beyond Trump's short existence as president.

We are very dangerously testing the resilience of the USA to endure.

Trump supporters seem to have us in a race. Which can we destroy first? The USA or the world?

Trump supporters don't seem to care about either. They claim they do. They have themselves fooled into thinking they do.

Where are the real conservatives who care about people, community, and longevity?
