What other politician holds rallies in which he/she encourages the audience to chant "Lock her up," encourages them to direct their anger towards reporters in the venue, encourages them to believe that the FBI is a nefarious endeavor?

Can you name even one in Trump's league?
Nope, can't think of any.

Amazing that Trump supporters continue to claim that "they all lie" so no big deal.

WORDS MATTER.

Words especially matter when uttered by the president of the US.

His words carry enormous import and can be market and world moving politically.

Americans, at one time, could listen to a president with reasonable assurance that, for the most part, they were hearing some semblance of the truth. No previous president has ever lied with the frequency and outrageousness as this one.

Nowadays, I don't listen to one word that man utters. I see him on the TV, I hit mute. See him in a video, I hit mute. For, as sure as night follows day, I can be certain that 95% of the hot air he blows is a lie.

I'm tired of being told on a daily basis that I am STUPID.

Because, that is what a lie is. An INSULT to your intelligence.

The Liar is telling his listeners he believes they are stupid and therefore he can lie to them because he knows they are dumb enough to believe him - or, even worse, make excuses for him.

Trump insults the citizenry of this country numerous times a day with every lie/ignorant utterance out of his mouth. If he doesn't know something, he just makes stuff up. Worse, he often doesn't know what he doesn't know - and he can't be bothered to learn. Reading, apparerently, is very hard for him.

He clearly has no respect for his office, or the people of this country. Further, he doesn't even recognize that he is president of ALL the people. As far as he is concerned, only his base count.

The rest of us have no president.

He's done nothing but lie so far................ telling the truth you tell it once and it's over, telling a lie seems get repeated over and over.
Oh yeah. Clear during the Fox interview that he s a bully. She was nt aloud to speak and was clearly terrified she was asked to speak in front of him without his permission.
She s a handmaid.

Trump is lying about his opponent's both old and new. The rest of the GOP going crazy, from locking up democrats to holding up their voter registrations.


Just how afraid are they? Enough to take away the right of free speech and the right to vote.

Lying is the greatest of disrespect as it steals the listeners(targets) freedom of choice.

How can you make a responsible choice in your life when you are constantly gaslighted and presented with lies about reality. Alternative facts ...hideous.

Evil is as evil does.

SO true. He doesn't know what he is doing, is in it for himself and is the biggest mistake ever. It has been this way for far too long, already...the big pretender. How he is able to remain is ridiculous...but know that there is a difficult process involved to get him out, unfortunately.

As you say, we have never before experienced this, we could listen to a president speak and trust that for the most part, things were being handled. I was not always watching news waiting and hoping for something positive to surface. Like you, once I have heard references to something new he has said or done, I will mute the TV any time he is shown, usually uttering something as I do so.

I had said that those closest to him would know of the reality, after everything occurring with the hearing, having a discounted claimant, an unfinished investigation and unheard witnesses - then having Kav being treated by some as if he is the greatest guy ever. Everything involves tRump getting his way and his going on about how great everyone and everything is, is just all for show.

Trump lying so often at his rallies that they are no longer being covered. The majority of the people are seeing how nuts Trump really is.

We are also seeing that it is only about the dollar. His lies about the Saudi's are really making him looked played.


His past statements about how he loves you if you buy some condos (Saudi's, Russians) shows how to manipulate him.

Trump was in Ohio lying about how "incredible" Robert E. Lee was. Report was that the crowd cheered.

Now why would people in Ohio cheer a traitor and a loser?
