Stars dorondo dale, and in the face of all that lying the president took it to a new level this week. Just remember what youre seeing and what youre reading is not whats happening. Well, this is a president who doesnt hesitate to tell you that whatiosee with your own eyes and hear with your own ears is not the truth. The sheer number of lies can be overwhelming, and the danger is well become numb to all of this, that well tell ourselves its just trump being trump. But theres a larger question here. Can the truth survive President Trump . As a new York Real Estate developer he built his business on his own blatant lies claiming trump tower has 68 floors when the truth is easy to see, it has 58. When according to a forbes
reporter his real worth was closer to 5 billion and this is man who built his campaign on lies starting with racist birther lie starting with president barack obama was not born in this country, a lie he still reportedly clings to in private. He wasnt born in this count
Doh spicer. All right, so, the white house used to claim that the president s tweets are not just idle opinionating, theyre official statements with the power of the white house behind him. How many times have people working for the president said the president s tweet speaks for itself or words to that effect . Except for todays tweet. That apparently doesnt speak for itself. That needs a spokesperson and a tv lawyer speaking for it, sweeping up after it, quietly trying to wipe it off the bottom of their shoes. When the president of the United States says that one of his subordinates should do something and do it now, how is that just one guys opinion . It all smacks of another effort that was made recently to suggest that the president didnt really say what everyone heard him say. And a key sentence in my remarks, i said the word would instead of wouldnt. The sentence should have been, i dont see any reason why i wouldnt, or why it wouldnt be russia. Sort of a double negative. That a
doh! spicer. all right, so, the white house used to claim that the president s tweets are not just idle opinionating, they re official statements with the power of the white house behind him. how many times have people working for the president said the president s tweet speaks for itself or words to that effect? except for today s tweet. that apparently doesn t speak for itself. that needs a spokesperson and a tv lawyer speaking for it, sweeping up after it, quietly trying to wipe it off the bottom of their shoes. when the president of the united states says that one of his subordinates should do something and do it now, how is that just one guy s opinion? it all smacks of another effort that was made recently to suggest that the president didn t really say what everyone heard him say. and a key sentence in my remarks, i said the word would instead of wouldn t. the sentence should have been, i don t see any reason why i wouldn t, or why it wouldn t be russia. sort of a doubl
remarks i said the word would instead of wouldn t. the sentence should have been, i don t see any reason why i wouldn t or why it wouldn t be russia. seeing it from his perspective doesn t make a distinction between what s true and what s false. his only distinction is what will work and what will not work. reporter: and what happens when he s challenged with facts? what does he do? he has a genius, you know, perverse genius for turning any situation into something that is evidence of his brilliance. even if it s not true. wow, we have a lot to talk about. gloria, tony, when we come back i m going to ask both of you could donald trump have been a success without the lies? it is such a good time to kiss
i will say this. i don t see any reason why it would be. the sentence should have been i don t see any reason why it wouldn t be russia. sort of a double negative. so you can put that in, and i think that probably clarifies things pretty good by itself. one of the president s staunchest supporters, though, who says mr. trump needs to do a better job clarifying his stance on russia. listen. the evidence is overwhelming. it can be proven beyond any evidentiary burden that russia is not our friend and they tried to attack us in 2016. so the president either needs to rely on the people that he has chosen to advise him or those advisers need to reevaluate whether or not they can serve in this administration. but the disconnect cannot continue. the evidence is overwhelming. and the president needs to say that and act like it. that from one of president trump s staunchest supporters.
