DC Tom Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 48 minutes ago, Doc Brown said: He is a pathological liar. There's countless statements and tweets to back that up. It's that characteristic that led to Mueller even being hired when he gave differing accounts of the reason for firing Comey. It's pry why his lawyers want him nowhere near Mueller. Not that he's guilty of anything related to Russia, but Mueller could easily coax him into lying about something completely unrelated. Again, he's not a liar, because "lying" implies consciously making a statement that has a negative relation to the truth. And I don't think that's what he does. He just spews nonsense that's totally unconnected to the truth in any manner.

When he doesn't know what he's talking about he tends to do that, but one of the hallmark traits of a pathological liar is exaggerating their accomplishments or make up stories in order to impress people. I would say Trump does that more than any other public figure I can think of. Brian Williams included.
row_33 Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 So many amateur Freuds on here determining levels of liarship. i believe that none of them have a clue what they are talking about.

They make up new rules and norms to suit whatever they feel lets them seem perfect, always whining after reality clocks them hard. They are rationalizers, seek to avoid this kind of human vermin as much as possible in your personal life.

Thats my point exactly. I have never said that Trump is this choir boy, but Trump haters always cling to "Trump is a pathological liar" nonsense. Name me one person in office in history who hasn't lied? 1

Bill Clinton never lied, obviously.... hyuck yuck yuck ....... I don’t understand certain people in lockstep with the worship of liberal sided politicians or the extreme hate the same people have of conservatives. Never will. Leaders make decisions for what they think is best for the facts in real time, both sides can make mistakes and good decisions and mostly safely get us through each problem.
Tiberius Posted March 8, 2018 Author Posted March 8, 2018 Did he get her pregnant and did she have an abortion??? This is now now a real question as her contract of quiet had a section on not disclosing info on paternity. http://www.palmerreport.com/analysis/pregnant-stormy-daniels-trump/8625/

Saying stupid **** like "tarriffs don't cause trade wars" isn't pathological lying, it's pathological idiocy. Or, by way of analogy: Flat Earthers don't lie, they're just !@#$ing stupid.

Trump may be a lot of things but he's not stupid. He says things that sound stupid but there is a method to his madness. He keeps the MSM and the rest of the Left running from hissy fit statement to statement and not being able to focus on any one thing. All of their protests are falling on deaf ears. Also, his whole MO has always been to stake his positions out at the extreme end of things and then negotiate something less. He is what he is but in the over all picture he is actually putting forth great effort to do things and in many instances has succeeded. Don't fall for the opposition's noise.

I would agree with that. It is also very obvious that he makes a lot of stupid statements with no plan past the period in that particular sentence.
Tiberius Posted March 8, 2018 Author Posted March 8, 2018 This just isn't going away and is such a scandal on so many levels. If she got an abortion and Trump paid the hush money for that I love to see the pro-life hypocrites explain how they still support him, because they will. And this: Quote Trump’s legal future got murkier thanks to Stormy Daniels’s lawsuit. “First, this is Daniels alleging that Trump was personally involved — something the White House and [Trump’s personal lawyer Michael] Cohen have declined to confirm or deny. . . . And second, she alleges that the effort was geared toward aiding Trump’s election. That may seem like a given, because it happened just before Election Day, but as The Washington Post’s Philip Bump has reported, the payment is more legally problematic if it was clearly for this purpose.”

It is also very obvious that he makes a lot of stupid statements with no plan past the period in that particular sentence. What he is doing is practicing brilliant politics. He's taken a hostile and antagonistic media, and an opposition party that is in outright rebellion, and is making them dance to his tune, latching them on to whatever story he deems desirable, and flash-changing narratives so fast that the media can't keep up, generating such over the top reactions that middle America is completely tuning them out. It's been incredible to watch.

With Trump it's a blip on the radar. Which says a lot about where our democracy is at this point Quote The deliberations of the Constitutional Convention of 1787 were held in strict secrecy. Consequently, anxious citizens gathered outside Independence Hall when the proceedings ended in order to learn what had been produced behind closed doors. The answer was provided immediately. A Mrs. Powel of Philadelphia asked Benjamin Franklin, “Well, Doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?” With no hesitation whatsoever, Franklin responded, “A republic, if you can keep it.” (Benjamin Franklin)
