Do the lies just not count anymore? [View all]
The corporate media has been doing a fairly good job of critiquing trump's UN speech, even using non-normalizing adjectives like "mocking" and "lecturing" and "boasting" to describe it. But what about lying? :
To me, that's even more damning, because honesty is not just a matter of style.
The sad fact is that many Rs like his "style". And they don't know he's lying. It's up to the free press and te Dems to point it out.
I couldn't watch the speech in full. But I was able to last long enough to hear him lie about bringing grocery prices down, having sky high poll numbers, China not using wind energy, and there were probably many more. And to me at least, that still matters.
I have always believed that every time a Dem is asked about trump, they should preface their reaction with something like, "I don't know what to say about that, because he is always lying. Who knows if that's true?" Really drill it in. The fact that the POTUS can't be trusted is, or should be, everything.
