Trump: The Only Good Democrat is a Dead Democrat

[georgephillip]

O already sailed that boat. Sorry, gp.

There's only been one Trump (so far)
Obama lied in the same way all politicians lie, but Trump lies when the truth sounds better:

The Most Mendacious President in U.S. History

"The fact remains, however, that Trump’s breathtaking dishonesty is and ought to be a national debate in its own right.

"In a provocative new essay, Trump’s onetime ghostwriter Tony Schwartz—who wrote Trump’s best-selling 1987 book, 'The Art of the Deal,' but has since turned on him—argues that the Presidency has transformed Trump from an attention-seeking narcissist, who spent decades lying about his golf trophies, his sex life, and his real-estate properties, into an ends-justify-the-means ruler who has increasingly and ominously escalated his lies and extreme behavior."

ROTFLMAO

Genuine threats to national security.

You fuckers wore that one out a long time ago.

Time for a new line of bullshit.

Time to run and hide, Rube.

Amy Goodman and Denis Moynihan: President Trump is the greatest threat to national security

"President Donald Trump is a threat to national security.

"His lies rev people up, inspiring hate.

"A slew of bombs have been discovered this week, targeting people and organizations Trump regularly vilifies: the Obamas, the Clintons, Congressmember Maxine Waters, CNN, ex-CIA chief John Brennan, former Attorney General Eric Holder and billionaire liberal philanthropist George Soros.

"While Trump fabricates national security concerns to foment fear, he ignores genuine threats."

Trump's lies dwarf that number by a factor of ten:

Amy Goodman and Denis Moynihan: President Trump is the greatest threat to national security

"Take the migrant caravan, for example. At a Houston rally on Sunday, Trump called it 'an assault on our country.'

"Thousands of people making their way from Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador are fleeing violence, poverty and desperation, seeking refuge and asylum in the United States and Mexico.

"In a tweet on Monday, Trump claimed: 'Criminals and unknown Middle Easterners are mixed in.' When challenged by a reporter for evidence, he flippantly replied, 'There's no proof of anything.'"

 

[georgephillip]

Not sure he is a danger to short term national security, but he is nuts. Not eccentric, as I am no psychologist, but just plain nuts.

Trump's tenuous relationship with facts seems to pose an escalating threat, especially if he's defeated next November and has two months to spin his lame-duck revenge?

Amy Goodman and Denis Moynihan: President Trump is the greatest threat to national security

"'To abandon facts is to abandon freedom,' writes Yale historian Timothy Snyder in his book 'On Tyranny.'

"In the past few weeks, nothing illustrated this better than the murder of Jamal Khashoggi, Washington Post columnist and critic of the Saudi monarchy.

"On Oct. 2, Khashoggi walked into the Saudi Consulate in Istanbul and never came out.

"The Saudi government lied, saying he had left soon after.

"Reports almost immediately surfaced that Saudi Arabia had dispatched a 15-man 'kill team,' which tortured, killed and dismembered Khashoggi in the consulate.

"Rather than denounce the murder immediately, Trump declared he would await Saudi Arabia's investigation of itself, but would not cut record weapons sales to the kingdom.

"Saudi Arabia is waging a war on Yemen, and its relentless, U.S.-backed bombing has driven at least half the Yemeni population to the brink of famine.

"The United Nations has declared Yemen to be the greatest human catastrophe on the planet today."

While he could be the first iteration of propaganda fantasy based government. I still think he is a one off, singular nut case that captured the temporary imagination of the poor saps that felt they were never listened to and he is just appeasing them for the adulation, to get his ego stroked. They feed off each other. The danger is, it is like a drug that may require bigger doses to have the effect. Trump is out of here after November election, except for the crap he will pull for his own benefit before inauguration day. I think the normal repbulican semi conservatives will fill the void and that party may settle down. If he were to win, in the next 4 years we could be so far down the rabbit hole with the mad hatter, the country might never get back. We could be the next supreme soviet, a danger at home and abroad. I have never understood it. He is reprehensible enough I honestly cannot detect the charisma, but he has dazzled the dumb-asses.

We've never had anything like this. But if he's only a symptom of a larger problem, we have more to worry about.

Truth over facts...

This should have been a national outrage.

But we have lowered our standards for this child so far, that it barely registered.

Ugly. Again.

Trump yawning already is a national outrage to the enemy of the people, meaning MSM.

Even a woman calling cops when she shouldn't have is now national news because... ORANGE MAN BAD!!! Time to stir up a RACE WAR!!

You are a joke Big Mac.

Is Trump the most mendacious POTUS in history?
Yes, he is, and he's also the most dangerous.

The Most Mendacious President in U.S. History

"On Sunday, on Tuesday, and again on Wednesday, President Donald Trump accused the TV talk-show host Joe Scarborough of murder.

"On Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, he attacked the integrity of America’s forthcoming 'rigged' election.

"When he woke up on Wednesday, he alleged that the Obama Administration had 'spied, in an unprecedented manner, on the Trump Campaign, and beyond, and even on the United States Senate.'

"By midnight Wednesday, a few hours after the number of U.S. deaths in the coronavirus pandemic officially exceeded a hundred thousand, the President of the United States retweeted a video that says, 'the only good Democrat is a dead Democrat.'"

Link removed

"The book is not just a compendium of the President’s tens of thousands of falsehoods, misleading claims, and lies during the first three years of his Presidency; it’s also an effort to catalogue and explain the different pathologies at work in his systematic misrepresentations to the American people.

"The untruths told by the President have increased in seriousness and volume, the Post found: an average of six per day in 2017 turned to nearly sixteen per day in 2018, which then increased to more than twenty-two per day in 2019—and that was before this crazy 2020 of the impeachment trial, the pandemic, the economic crisis, and Trump’s reëlection campaign."

Misinformation, disinformation, and blatant lies have always been keys to Trump's success.

Since he "won" the most powerful office in the world, they have metastasized into genuine threats to national security.

Now, as he struggles to manage the convergence of a national pandemic and economic collapse while running for reelection, his desperation to distract from his many failings only exacerbate the many divisions in an already sundered republic.

Too much winning?

Yes, they attempted coup, that is a fact. They thought America had already become a 3rd world country.

They failed, Trump won.

Mac1958 Should the coup be national outrage?

If it makes it into the real world, we'll see.

Whatever you think of Trump, there is no man or woman who has taken the verbal assaults that he has in our lifetime. Nixon was minor league. Every day, 24 hours a day.... and he has weathered the storm more then anyone could. A lot of weaker people would have wilted. Hillary was gifted the white House on a silver platter and blew it. On election night she did not even show up at her own party with all her admirers. She gave them a big Ph uk You. She wilted in a four hour period. The election was over by midnight. But took much longer to declare because of her.

 

[Mac1958]

Whatever you think of Trump, there is no man or woman who has taken the verbal assaults that he has in our lifetime.

Yes, and no President who has behaved like he has, since Day One.

He is not the victim. He is above nothing. He lives in the mud.

How people react to him is only part of the story.

He is not a cry-baby, because he is a super-alpha.

Anyone else in his situation would be considered a victim of media abuse. But he is strong, he fights back and defeats the soy boy lead CNN instead. This is EXACTLY what Americans wanted to see.

I think it is far more likely that Trump is a malignant narcissist who's sufficiently delusional to believe his presidency has been a stunning success. Until he's removed from the White House and finds himself in assorted courtrooms, he will continue to revel in his perceived greatness. As far as I can tell, he is the same racist rich bitch who's found success by losing other people's money, cheating vendors, and lying about every failure he has ever been involved in.

Prosecutors' best move: Charge Trump and seal the indictment

 

[georgephillip]

Yes, they attempted coup, that is a fact. They thought America had already become a 3rd world country.

They failed, Trump won.

Trump is the coup.
The crony capitalist cut out the middle man and is enriching his family and cronies to an extent unprecedented in US history. If you truly believe a billionaire cares about working class Americans, I think you will be greatly disappointed once he is out of office and no longer able to cover up his many crimes.

 

[Bloodrock444]

If nothing else, he's shown what a partisan deep state shit show exists in DC.

We had the Mueller investigation.

We had the Adam Schitt show shitsham impeachment farce.

I hope Nancy Peolsi sits on one of those pens. It might give her a brain aneurysm.

How does one have an aneurysm when they don't have a brain?
