Why would you worry..... if you just tell the truth??

Rebecca- mi amiga

You are trying to assume that tRump is a normal person. He is not.
tRump would pay to lie when telling the truth was free. To tRump and individuals like him, the truth is what he wants at any particular moment. There is no real, observable, rational truth to these individuals.
tRump has lived his nasty life on the basis of "me, me, me" and to him, there is no reason to consider anyone else.

Keep the faith, keep telling the truth, and some day, we will be rid of this plague of a man= and I use the term "man" very loosely in his case.
good day to all- Ed

Because he's a compulsive liar. He lives in a context where deception creates advantages. He knows they are lies. If he's not subjected to consequences for lying, he believes the benefits of lying outweigh the risks. Eventually they will backfire on him and possibly face legal consequences, which has him worried.

NOW there's a president we can all be proud of.........NOT!!! 

"On July 5, the president reached a new daily high of 79 false and misleading claims. On a monthly basis, June and July rank in first and second place, with 532 and 446 claims, respectively."    

Dragonlady, I believe he knows the difference. Who doesn't?

I agree with Drifter. Lying works for him so why not? Liars can look you straight in the eye and tell you a bold faced lie without an ounce of guilt or remorse. It comes natural for them. They've perfected their craft. However, they still know they're lying it simply doesn't matter anymore.

I remember during the campaign when goodie two shoe, holier than thou, bible thumping evangelicals would not support Hillary, an intelligent and seasoned politician, because they said she was a liar. (Let he that is without sin cast the first stone.) You could almost see them with the back of their right hand on their forehead, feeling faint and searching for the smelling salts, at the idea of having such a 'nasty' woman as POTUS.

These people, imho, truly are deplorable, diabolical, hypocrites. Just like the lying pond scum they support!

I'm very old school when it comes to truth telling. Phrases like "My word is my bond", and "He is a man of his word", are meaningful to me. If Trump "is as good as his word" then I cannot value the man highly at all. Quite the opposite.

The rotten apple doesn't fall far from the tree. The whole family is a waste of flesh. So are those that support them. Instead of being ashamed and embarrassed his supporters cheer him on. It frightens me knowing there are so many stupid people out there and they vote. You can't reason with them. You can't even have a thoughtful conversation with them! They're like spoiled children with their fingers stuffed in their ears shouting, "I can't hear you!" Or, "One Way" signs.

I can't swear to it but I believe this is all about racism. How dare America put a black man (not the word they'd use) in the White House and then even consider putting a woman (also not the word they'd use) in there next? The outrage and the ugly, along with a little help from our enemies, bubbled up and gushed out of regressive and hateful Americans who vowed to take their country back from "those" people. Meaningless chatter but it certainly stirred the pot.

These people were ripe for picking. All they needed was a puffed up maniacal white guy willing to lead them and they'd trip over each other following him. No thought, reason, or common sense was needed. Hate is all they needed and hate would lead the charge.
