Donny, are you ok?

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

Oh, lying fershure. But I'd admit that some kinds of lies are worse than others. Maybe not in a moral sense, but certainly from a practical standpoint.

Yeah, but isn't it sad that you can believe nothing from the mouth of a President* of the United States without doing a Google search.

As a sad example.

That's why they call DonOLD's 2020 "The Big LIE". It's the gift that keeps on giving.

"embellishment" - :lol: Talk about "spin". It's constant flat-out LYING, contradicting the proven truth about everything, not some quirky and playful shading.

No question he is a master of embellishment.


True that. But it's one thing to claim to be a scratch golfer when you probably don't break 80 on your best day, quite another to claim the entire world economy would collapse if he didn't get to keep his tariffs.
Is that what we are calling lying now?
I think they at one time called it "alternative facts." For alternative Americans.

Funny how ignorance can change everything. But Kellyanne or whoever it was who gave us "alternative facts" and became a bit of a national joke over it really should have known the term is "alternative SET of facts". One word makes all the difference.

On the other hand, I like the term "alternative Americans". Good term for these fools.

It is not for me to defend every utterance from Trump. I think my history would show I would prefer he just let some of these issues go without comment.

True, but this is not atypical, and the underlying pettiness and vindictiveness (not to mention the expected quid pro quo from Paramount). Policy preference aside, you still feel comfortable with this finger on the nuclear button?

Yes. There are some cool heads advising him.

As far as I know, nobody - not even his most ardent supporters had ever before suggested that Trump has ever intentionally hired "cool heads" who would provide him with advice contrary to whatever he wanted to do. Maybe in the first term it turned out through luck that some did that, but they're all long gone - most villified on their way to the Gulag.

Upon further review, I think Supes is sitting in his den somewhere laughing his ass off and telling all his friends about how he scored a major coup in the owning of libs. Good job, Supes - you really had us going
