"That was the largest audience to witness an inauguration, period." "The @nytimes sent a letter to their subscribers apologizing for their BAD coverage of me." "The @nytimes states today that DJT believes ‘more countries should acquire nuclear weapons.’ How dishonest are they. I never said this!" "Beyonce and Jay Z, I like them, I like them ... I get bigger crowds than they do. It's true. I get far bigger crowds." When Hillary Clinton "ran the State Department, $6 billion was missing. How do you miss $6 billion? You ran the State Department, $6 billion was either stolen — they don't know." Says he won the second debate with Hillary Clinton "in a landslide" in "every poll." "I've gotten to see the commercials that they did on you. And I've gotten to see some of the most vicious commercials I've ever seen of Michelle Obama talking about you, Hillary." Says Hillary Clinton "wants to go to a single-payer plan" for health care Says he has "a fiduciary responsibility to his business, his family and his employees to pay no more tax than legally required." Mike Pence - Says Donald Trump "hasn’t broken his promise" to release his tax returns. "NATO is opening up a major terror division. ... I'm sure I'm not going to get credit for it, but that was largely because of what I was saying and my criticism of NATO." "I did not support the war in Iraq … The record shows that I’m right." On whether Barack Obama was born in the United States. "My opponent has no child care plan." "Hillary Clinton wants to shut down family farms" using "radical regulation," by raising business tax "rates as high as nearly 50 percent" and by taxing "family farms again at death by as much as 45 percent." "Inner-city crime is reaching record levels." Etc., Etc., Etc., Etc.... Each one of these is flat out wrong, and this is a small sampling of blatant lies before he even became president. You can say "so and so is a huge liar", and depending on who you are talking about you may be right. That doesn't make Trump any less a liar who pandered and tailored his message to win the "gut vote" of millions and millions and millions of people. Full. Stop.

It is largely opinion, so take it for that. One thing that I disagree with is calling him a liar. I think he's not necessarily lying; he just doesn't know the truth. Most of what he says appears to be just made up on the fly, and my observation is that his memory is not so good. bp <part15sbs{at}gmail{dot}com> On 1/28/2017 10:48 PM, Jaime Solorza wrote: > First week...What a joke... > > > http://www.dispatch.com/news/20170127/fact-check-on-donald-trumps-firs > t-week-in-office -- If you only see yourself as part of the team but you don't see your team as part of yourself you have already failed as part of the team. -- If you only see yourself as part of the team but you don't see your team as part of yourself you have already failed as part of the team.
