Show me ANY politician who, based upon one's political perspective, never lies.
You would have a better chance of finding a pixie who makes their pixie dust by sucking on unicorn farts then burping them back out, mixing the combination with utopian sludge then running the whole mess through a transmogrifier.
No argument. Endless series of politicians lying for political benefits - either outright or indirectly (parsing words, obfuscation).

Keep in mind that he's also the president that off-shored lots of jobs via NAFTA and also pardoned billionaire tax evader Marc Rich...whose wife paid millions to the DNC and then gave up citizen ship to avoid paying tens of millions in taxes.
You seem young idealistic and ill-informed.
I might not like Trump but he's not that much different from other presidents at this point and that's not a compliment.
No argument. Clinton lied for a benefit. Get out of trouble (Monica). Money.
Sure some are arguing that Trump's lie (should it be proved to be one) was for political advantage or benefit. The tweets were said to be a brilliant deflection. Political strategy.
My guess is Trump in the full throws of impulsivity simply didn't fully appreciate the gravity (of the accusation). And so fingers flew.
Is that the same as Clinton and Monica?
Somehow I feel more comfortable about a President literally screwing up rather than one figuratively doing so.
"One of the most interesting disclosures concerns how the CIA can cover its tracks by leaving electronic trails suggesting the hacking is being done in different places — notably, in Russia. In fact, according to WikiLeaks, there’s an entire department dedicated to this. Its job is to “misdirect attribution” by leaving false fingerprints."
''Tis a bit rather convenient that Wikileaks dumps a bunch of stuff about fake fingerprints right when there's this whole issue about what this administration's links to Russia are.
silly silly silly. POTUS is under oath every second....posters here are not.
Under the oath of:

Well, I tell the truth here so much of the time, that you wouldn't likely suspect about the few occasions that I've let a little poetic license tie down some of the rough edges. Everything I say, is based at least loosely on the whole truth. I do much better at that, than most script writers, for what are supposedly documentary films.
Go away McCain. You weakling. Sending out Sarah Palin to fight for you because you were too chicken to take on the fight.
Trump is so much more a man than you. Sending out a woman to take the flack ,you disgust me.
Go away? Don't you want Trump to present the evidence that will take down Obama?
Yep. I say the same punishment that Democrats should get. Did anyone notice that Democrats in congress have been littering their Russia speeches with caveats like, "We do not know all the facts," and, "More information may well surface."
They repeatedly refer to what they don't know as a way of talking about what they hope to find out.

You've got to be kidding, right? Sarah Palin would still be an unknown, backwoods moose killer if she wasn't McCain's running mate in 2008.
