I don’t doubt that Trump has some skeletons in his closet. Everyone does.


On top of that, it's a little different running your business that way and career politicians running the government that way, completely enriching themselves and ripping off the taxpayer.

I found it interesting in that new Netflix documentary Fear City, they get to a point which was during Trump's time that all these buildings were being built in NYC and they all had to go through the mob for construction and then had to pay 2%. You always hear about Trump and connections to the mob, would be funny if his only connection was having to pay them. That would frick up the media narrative.

Look at any fact check site.


Find me an unbiased one and maybe I’ll take a gander.

Of course, finding an unbiased site would kill your whole premise.

Now tell us how many lies are told about him.

Contrary to "fact check" sites, disagreeing with a leftist does not automatically = "lie", just like it doesn't automatically = "racist".

Michael Savage was right.

There are plenty, but one of the more flagrant was his denying he knew anything about hush-money payments that his lawyer/fixer Michael Cohen pleaded guilty Trump directed him to make.

You could argue that Cohen's testimony about Trump's direction was a lie, but Trump originally said he didn't even know anything about payments, but Cohen had the recordings and checks with Trump's signature which were also shown during his testimony to Congress.

I’ve been hearing a lot about Trump’s lies lately, including that reporter that unhinged and asked him about it. Comments on articles are saying there are mounds and mounds of evidence about all his lies. My question, does he have a history of lying? Any big lies that he has been publicly caught in the middle of? Nothing is coming to mind but I haven’t been paying attn as close as I am now. What are the big lies that the libs have so much evidence on?

2 of those 3 were before the fact so could never be considered a lie, the third is him being a positive person and not freaking out like everyone else

Now let's compare that to all the lies Dim leadership, WHO, CDC, NIH, etc have compiled during the Wuhan Flu that were ACTUAL tangible lies related to the virus

So because you disagree with those statements they are considered lies? Gotcha, didn’t realize that’s how Truth and lies were distinguished...by your own opinions on things....Go figure.

Any other things you could shed light on that you deem to be lies?

Cohen's official title was VP of Trump org and he had a regular paycheck from there. As you can see, this was a personal check from Trump. He was giving him about $35K as a retainer - walking around money for fixing this and that.

Let’s talk about the sainted Anthony Fauci, who’s been talking out of both sides of his mouth since this started.

It’s like someone said: want to hear opposing views on COVID? Just ask Dr. Fauci.

I don't see a memo line with "hush payment" anywhere.

Big timers having an attorney "fixer" on retainer isn't all that special. The term "fixer" isn't necessarily what's depicted in the movie "Michael Clayton".

He does. There was a great reddit thread a few months ago where someone made an incredibly long list of something Trump lies about, and then the truth. That reporter calling him out was pretty awesome. Dude was just fed up with the bullshite.

If you don't care for that one, there are plenty of others, like the more people came to my inaugural one.



The defending of the lies makes you an omega, btw.

I wonder what percentage of his “lies” are related to his repudiation of the Russia hoax for almost four years.

Turns out he was right and it was the Dims and media lying.

I’m sure those fact checkers have cleaned up the daily lie trackers to remove all those instances, right?
