Oh I hope he does a great job. It wouldn't change the strangeness of his supporters being so willing to be lied to any though .

Trumps lies are of a different category altogether though. He denies video and photo evidence , creates his own reality, and expects his supporters to accept his reality and ignore physical evidence , and they do . And that's what is so bizarre . They can make themselves deny evidence their eyes and ears can assimilate without commentary being needed, and accept Trumps claim the physical evidence is a lie . This isn't a matter of interpretation or simple mistakes, as with so much of what the right will label as lies by Obama, but rather a matter of being willing to deny physical evidence and believe Trumps lies over the evidence .

Truly bizarre . That's really the only way to describe it .

I find it strange that this is a talking point of the left, but then again possibly talking about bringing the country together is not their strong point.
Seems to me that the administration seems more worried about the lack of a crowd than the pink hat crowd.

Well according to Kellyann Conway they are not telling lies but providing alternative facts.

One can't expect others to do what they will not do themselves.

It certainly doesn't deserve its own thread, because the OP was written poorly. Providing none of the aforementioned evidence.

In short, cluck to yourself about "lies" and liars all that you wish, but don't expect to engage other adults in a non-adult conversation founded in nothing but emotion. It's a waste of our time.

Last, show me a president who didn't lie, or "bend the truth" to be more diplomatic about it, and I'll show you your ignorance.

P.S. any post that uses the word "sheeple" in it is generally automatically disqualified from warranting a serious response.
Nicely worded dodge , but still a dodge nonetheless .

And people exposed as sheeple do tend to be upset at being so labeled . But there really is no other way to describe those so willing to be lied to .


I thought HC sucked, and hope Trump succeeds . But this doesn't make his followers any less the sheeple for accepting his lies so willingly .

How can you ignore the state of your and Trumps hypocrisy?

Trump, and the party that voted him in, is un-American as you can possibly be.

"America first" may be his motto but his actions go against everything that humans have come to appreciate as Democracy.

You know what's really killing America? Stupidity and poor leaders taking advantage of the ignorance of those who push populism as the goal.

The world is bigger than your small town politics.
You have a point with regards to poor leadership...Take Barack for example- we have had 8 LONGGGGG Years of corruption, a poor economy, division among Americans...the list goes on and on! Who is to say that we might have been friends...had it not been for the division of Barack ensuring that we have a left and right society. I say- give TRUMP a try. I believe that liberals are not afraid of what Trump will fail at doing...but FEAR his and his administration-SUCCESS! That they might have solutions to bringing jobs and saving jobs here in America! Protecting our borders will help keep America SAFE! You and I both have the freedom to ***** at each other because we are still America- we have the Freedom of Speech! Without safety we leave it to our enemies that really HATE Americans to silence us. You say what form of meth having I been dipping into- and I say to you if we loose our Freedom, Security and love of country- we will all be dipping into some form of meth to numb what may really happen to us had Hillary won.

Very simple.

We became accustomed to listening to lies from the Oval Office on a minute-by-minute basis during the Obama Administration.

After eight years of that appalling mistreatment, the occasional slight variance from Trump doesn't seem so bad.

Bizarre. Just frickin bizarre.
Trump's "lies' bother his suppoters no more and no less than Obama's bothered his supporters.

Want to know the answer?


Try looking in a mirror.

Your rationalization of the LIES told by the Trump administration on DAY 1 of their public service is duly noted.

Fact: The very first thing Trump did on his very first day as President was to sent his very first press secretary out on his very first day to LIE about crowd size on his very first press conference. Ever.

That's a fact.

Spin it however you want if it makes you feel better about it.
