You must *really* hate Trump then. According to your source, Trump lies at a rate of 18 times more than Obama did.
All False statements involving Donald Trump | PolitiFact

If Trump continues at that pace, over an eight-year period, Trump's total pages on Politifact will equal
54 pages of lies for Trump v. 4 for Obama.
Clearly Trump is a SUPER PINOCCHIO. The LIAR of ALL LIARS.

I've called you out on this misrepresentation before. But, by all means keep up the lying - since there is no good truth to tell about Trump.

Talk about the BURNED CAULDRON calling the teakettle black.
I will surprised if you get responded to. Great post!

Looks like Kusner Building to be bailed out by Qatar. Quid Pro Quo anyone.

Kushner still an employee and this sure looks bad. kind of like a bribe.

Qatar?

The Qatar that Trump supported the travel embargo against after they declined to bail out Kushner's real estate deal the last time?

The Qatar that paid big bucks to Cohen?

The Qatar that Cohen's attorney Ryan is also a lobbyist for?

That Qatar?

I get you & agree. This is the thing though ~ will it matter? After all, the following contains a link to a searchable database which is updated. Most of the Trump family's many conflicts of interest were present from day 1. Contrary to many 'promises' to deal with the many conflicts, he & they have done nothing.

Tracking Trump’s Conflicts of Interest

Sunlight’s “Tracking Trump’s Conflicts of Interest” project presents a comprehensive, free, searchable database detailing all of President Donald J.Trump’s known business dealings and personal interests that may conflict with his public duties as president of the United States. Read our reporting to stay current on related news, learn more about conflicts of interest at every level of government and search our database. If you’re familiar with any of the conflicts we’re tracking you can email us or contact us here to contribute to the project.
https://sunlightfoundation.com/track...s-of-interest/

Database:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...XAAZ8/htmlview

It's sometimes said, 'voters have short memories'. Apparently some folks simply do not care about the conflicts of interest. Even when leading to quid pro quo scenarios.

(Am I just stating the obvious?)

I think confirmation, or 'my-side' bias is a phenomenon here & elsewhere, although some of this seems to have reached 'next-level' realms.

(Hearkens back to Mr. Trump's clairvoyant "I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue & shoot somebody & I wouldn’t lose voters".

It's creepy.)

Who with sound mind would even “think” to say something like that in public (along with other stupid comments)? It truly paints a picture of just what we have allowed in the WH.

Trump Jr. and Other Aides Met With Gulf Emissary Offering Help to Win Election

No coincidence his first trip was to Saudi Arabia.
