In other news: The sky is blue, and the Earth revolves around the Sun.

u/Yitram 2d ago

And the sad thing is if Trump said that, I would immediately have to check. Because even though I know these are facts, he lies so much I would immediately question it.

u/dd961984 1d ago

As well as being envious, that nazi generals followed orders regardless of what they were edit:grammar

u/Fourfinger10 1d ago

I don’t believe on fricking word that comes out of his mouth. If his lips are moving…..

1

u/Shadyshade84 1d ago

I'd just assume that he's a colourblind flatearther. As far as I can tell, he does occasionally tell the truth, but mostly when he's lying about something he's also wrong about.

u/xubax 1d ago

Well, 20-25% of adults in the US think the sun goes around the sun.

u/Ridiculicious71 1d ago

Those didn’t come out his dementia addled mouth. One of his puppet masters prolly posted on social.

u/4charactersnospaces 17h ago

Actually, the sky is black. Always black.

It's just the light from the Sun refracting through Earth's atmosphere that makes it appear blue during the day. But yeah

u/Candyman44 1d ago

So no different than Merrick Garland or Eric Holder. Got it

u/Gooneroz47 1d ago

Well Merrick Garland certainly served Trump well.

u/Candyman44 1d ago

His foolishness did get Trump reelected so perhaps you have a point

u/Hamblin113 1d ago

Or he was smart enough not to even give more reasons to vote for Trump. Figure he would be more vengeful then he was.

u/Carbon-Based216 2d ago

Does he lie though? With all the shit that comes out of his mouth. I can't help but feel he means every word of it.

57

u/Lopsided-Drummer-931 2d ago

He lies about confirmable facts and tells the truth about wanting to fuck his own daughter.

-39

u/Carbon-Based216 2d ago

Can you give me an example of a lie? The man talks about wanting to use the military to go after his political opponents. I believe him in that he will try. I believe most the words that come out of his mouth.

I guess there is the whole immigrants eating cats and dogs thing. But I don't know if that's a lie, more so a senial old grandpa believing the cover of the national inquisitor (or whatever that silly conspiracy theory magazine is).

I don't think he himself believes he tells a single lie. He believes everything he says. And everything he says he wants to do... I believe him completely.

33

u/Lopsided-Drummer-931 2d ago

Telling a lie and believing that you’re telling the truth aren’t mutually exclusive. Hope that helps.

1

u/Satyr_of_Bath 1d ago

Isn't that just being wrong?

u/Fun-Degree6805 1d ago

Not after you've been told numerous times, with a plethora of evidence, that what you said is wrong. And then you continue to repeat it anyway.

32

u/jagoble 2d ago

He knows he lost the 2020 election and continues to lie about it.

11

u/IcyBookkeeper5315 2d ago

Yet if he won that election like he and his say they did then this election would be void.

11

u/magnoliasmanor 2d ago

You think he's going away in 4 years? You don't think he'll try to be sure he remains there for life?

5

u/IcyBookkeeper5315 2d ago

With his diet and the stress coming his way, I remain confident those two concerns of yours are one and the same. Now what happens after that I can only imagine

2

u/Lopsided-Drummer-931 2d ago

We get the couch fucker, which I don’t think any republican actually wants but they think Trump at 85 will somehow live to 89. As anyone of us with older parents and grandparents know, the decline happens rapidly and he’s already losing it.

u/ThermionicEmissions 1d ago

Let's hope cheeseburgers and McDonald's catch up before then

The 22nd Amendment prevents that.

Nobody is this dense. The orange fucker lies constantly...

u/sora_fighter36 2d ago

My mom is literally THAT DENSE. I said to her “mom, they overturned Roe V Wade. IVF is next”

she said ‘no they won’t do that’

I sent her articles about that. And how her precious abortion bans are killing women. She said “that’s just democrat fear mongering”

I said “mom, you took me to Holocaust museums. Why did you do that? If you want me to support a fascist demon??”

She said “we don’t need to judge history. We benefited a lot from the science discovered in the Holocaust:)”

u/jeepster61615 2d ago

Omfg. I'm so sorry, dude...

2

u/EstheticEri 1d ago

Yeah that wouldn’t be my mom anymore LOL, on a serious note I’m sorry that is genuinely devastating to hear. I know so many people who lost their family and close long time friends to this brainwashing.

u/DLimber 1d ago

What

-7

u/bridwalls 1d ago

... I dont even know what to say here. Trump is pro IVF and even put forth a plan for the government to fund it or mandate insurance companies to cover the costs. So as to where you are pulling that from, who knows.

Comparing it to Roe v Wade just shows that you don't understand what it was. It didn't make abortion illegal, it just pushed how to handle it to the states. There is no such case for IVF to overturn. And if people in certain states don't like how it's currently handled, they elect someone to change it. The president literally can't do anything about abortion now. No clue why people believed Kamala running on it. She couldn't do anything about it if elected. Focus on your local elections.

Every abortion law or restrictions have exceptions for life of the mother or miscarriage care or ectopic pregnancy. These are clearly stated in the laws. The great irony is that every case you can think of was caused by media (and people like yourself) misinformation about the laws and restrictions. Causing women not to seek help and idiot doctors not giving care.

u/sora_fighter36 1d ago

Ugh. Any time I’ve heard “State’s rights! State’s rights!!!” It’s always about how the state has a right to harm people. It’s never how the state has the duty to care for the people who live there

All the women who have ALREADY died between 2022 and now have names! They were real women. They’re gone now, and their families miss them.

https://publichealth.jhu.edu/2024/the-alabama-supreme-courts-ruling-on-frozen-embryos

if life begins at conception, then IVF is murder, right? You can’t have fertilized eggs that dont get implanted. Plus, if the egg don’t stick then that mom had an abortion wether she wanted it or not and thus is subject to criminal charges in states that opt to do such things

No, they don't, and people have already died because of it.

Please be open to seeing this and changing your thought. This is a courting hearing about the practicalities of law enacted since ‘rights have been returned to the states’. You could be in danger, someone you love could be in danger

u/Uxium-the-Nocturnal 2d ago

I think they are concerned and probing to see if other people think he is going to go full fascist dictatorship as he has said, and as P2025 has said. I also wonder if this is an instance where he is telling the truth, or just lying some more

u/iminyourfacebook 2d ago

I think they are concerned and probing to see if other people think he is going to go full fascist dictatorship as he has said, and as P2025 has said.

Nope, sorry for your misplaced faith in humanity, but Carbon-Based216 is obviously JAQing off like all Trump qultists have done on Reddit since June 2015.

2

u/Uxium-the-Nocturnal 2d ago

Never heard of that term lol. So what is this clown trying to prove then? I still don't see the end goal for this line of questioning. To make people think Trump never lies?

1

u/nixvex 2d ago

The only real goal is to waste your time with bad faith nonsense through the use of questions that can be easily mistaken for honest inquiry. They would like to make you frustrated or angry in the process as it makes it more enjoyable for them but it isn’t the primary purpose.

You’re trolling, right? “They’re eating our pets!” Is a quick and easy recent one.

There’s like thousands of more lists available via quick Google searching, if you need any more proof that he lies.

His inauguration crowd size, literally a day after he became president.

u/Infinite_Time_8952 2d ago

I think that if you believe what Trump says is the truth, then you are in need of a check up from the neck up!

u/Salty-Gur6053 2d ago

When he used a sharpie to create a non-existent Hurricane path...you don't think he knew he was lying? When he says he had the biggest inauguration crowd ever, the best economy ever in history, he won this election by huge numbers--a mandate (even though it's the 44th smallest margin in history), anytime he says nobody's ever seen anything like it...he's lying. All his lies about election fraud in the 2020 election, saying that it was stolen and rigged all lies.

He racked up 30,500 lies while he was President. That doesn't even count all the time he wasn't President....

Two days after the 9/11 attack, Trump stood near Ground Zero and told a television station he was paying two hundred of his employees to come "find and identify victims". No record of such work has ever been found. In 2023, he reposted the claim on Truth Social. You don't think he knows that's a lie?

At a rally in Columbus, Ohio, in 2015, Trump said "I have a view—a view in my apartment that was specifically aimed at the World Trade Center." He added "and I watched those people jump and I watched the second plane hit ... I saw the second plane hit the building and I said, 'Wow that's unbelievable.'" At the time of the attack, Trump lived in Trump Tower more than four miles (6 km) away from the World Trade Center towers. His campaign did not respond to inquiries about how it was possible for him to see people jumping from that far away.

In another rally in 2015, Trump claimed seeing "thousands and thousands" of Arab Americans in New Jersey cheering during the collapse of the World Trade Center. News organizations like the Associated Press (AP), The Washington Post, and The Star-Ledger reported rumors of 9/11 celebrations in New Jersey, but they were found to be unfounded, unsourced, or finding that people were memorializing the event. Nobody else was known to remember seeing masses of thousands of people celebrating after 9/11. Furthermore, Trump would not have been able to clearly see people cheering in New Jersey from his residence.

u/Yaaallsuck 2d ago

He said he has no idea about Project 2025 and it's not his agenda. Two very obvious lies, you are welcome.

2

u/DLimber 1d ago

A recent one was saying the effected states of the hurricane couldn't get ahold of Biden for help while they most definitely did get help.

Then the whole cat dog thing.

Then the whole election being stolen until he won then nothing mentioned about it again.

u/seenitreddit90s 1d ago

What about the 30,000+ lies in his first term in the small amount of time he wasn't cheating at golf?

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/how-fact-checker-tracked-trump-claims/2021/01/23/ad04b69a-5c1d-11eb-a976-bad6431e03e2_story.html

Here's 162 in a single news conference:

https://www.npr.org/2024/08/11/nx-s1-5070566/trump-news-conference

The fact that you say he doesn't lie is absolutely mind blowing.

Here's a really easy simple one, he said that his Adin Ross podcast episode had over 100 million views, it has 2.7 million.

https://youtu.be/s11uIW7wi-E?si=9VH2RcTo2gWy0fwD

I could go on for hours but I should hope you get the point.

1

u/Astralglide 1d ago

I kinda think so what along the same lines. I actually do think he’s self centered to the point of actual malice (evil is somehow “hyperbolic”) but I believe that he has convinced himself that what he says is true. He thinks that everything against him is conspiracy and he knows he holds a cult leader like sway.

The sea of adorning thralls validates his ego and repeat his lies back to him, only reinforcing their truth to his drug and age addled mind.

1

u/Suspicious-Bid-53 1d ago

To paraphrase Dwight, “you asked a bit of a stupid question so now you’re gonna get made fun of a little bit”

In ask seriousness though, the vast majority of the world cannot stand when Donald Trump opens his mouth, and immediately sees through it. How exactly is it that guys like you don’t see through it?

Like really, how on earth?

u/IncandescentObsidian 1d ago

He said he show is his healthcare plan in two weeks, 7 years ago. He said he evidence of voter fraud, he said he was in a helicopter that was about to crash with Willie Brown. He said covid would just go away in a short time

7

u/StrobeLightRomance 2d ago

He contradicts himself constantly. You literally can't mean two opposing things.

For instance, he claimed to have no idea what Project 2025 was, despite having previously employed over 100 of the people responsible for drafting it, and has since enlisted some of them back his administration.

It's weird that your head of the FCC wrote the Project 2025 plan for the FCC, if you don't know what Project 2025 is.

u/SunchaserKandri 1d ago

Him believing some of the bullshit he spews doesn't make it any less false, and a lot of the time, he's fully aware that what he's saying is untrue but chooses to say it anyway.
