Yet another thread from a hysterical liberal that starts "Why is it that....", followed by some tired, worn-out lie about Republicans?

You people really have nothing left, do you.

I can always tell when Trump is lying: his lips are moving.

This is called in poker a "tell". He does this whenever he feels threatened. He creates a lie to deflect the threat. His basic tactic is to create deflections and diversions in the hope that his critics, assailants to Him, will follow the bright bouncing ball and stop trying to find the real problems.


As he becomes ever more uncertain that he can cover his transgressions with untruths he will create ever more fanciful and complex lies to cover his despicable behavior. He believes he is America's King and is rapidly becoming much harder to maintain that illusion.

Counter that with George W. Bush. He usually spoke with his chest open, arms comfortably at his side. I disagreed with 95% of what he said, but I never doubted that he believed what he was saying was truthful.

Bill Clinton tended to lean in, usually with one shoulder and was good at intense emotion. He was rigid as a frozen bird when he lied at about Lewinsky.

Trump looks like a stuffed armadillo, all curled up like that. My four-year-old has a similar pout when he doesn't get dessert.

Yep.

Janine Driver and her You Can't Live to Me stuff is well worth taking a glance at.

Spot on with Trump.
