Re: Trump Biggest Whoppers
Wow, look how long this political thread has lasted. I hadn't been here in years. Just came on to say goodbye to my trusty HP5000. And see not one, but 2 threads of rants by the Lunatic Liberal Left. At least I can take heart that party of whackjobs and wingnutties is seriously unhappy. Excellent. I won't add to the out-of-place rancor on this forum by telling you Democrats what I think of you. This thread would never have lasted on the photographic sites.
You make a very big assumption. Like assuming that everyone who thinks Trump is a total fucking moron is a Dem. Just because you belong to a political party does not mean you have to stop your own independent thoughts. And living in America means you do not have to belong to any party to have a vote.The greatest enemy of knowledge isn't ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge. Stephen HawkingComment

Re: Trump Biggest Whoppers
Watch Trump straight up lie about reading the letter from Kim Jong-un
Trump's doing that thing again.
A North Korean delegation visited the White House on Friday to hand deliver a letter to President Trump. During a press appearance, Trump said it was a "very nice" and "very interesting" letter.
"Oh, would you like to see what was in that letter," Trump told reporters, then pointing at the crowd and asking, "How much? How much?"
"It was a very interesting letter," Trump said.
Eight minutes later, according to the Washington Post, Trump admitted that he hadn't even opened the letter when a reporter asked if he sent anything back.
"I haven't seen the letter yet," he told the same group of reporters. "I purposely didn't open the letter. I haven't opened it."Comment

Re: Trump Biggest Whoppers
Alternative Fact of the Week: Trump and the border family separations, or when lies justify inhumanity
This is a crisis entirely of President Trump’s making. Any other explanation isn’t just an “alternative fact.” It’s a lie on an inhuman scale.
Some lies by President Donald Trump and his sycophants are amusing, some absurd, some self-serving, some cynical. But the torrent of alternative facts presented this week in justification of the administration’s policy of separating migrant children from their parents at the border represent a level of moral bankruptcy that belies description. Here, in brief, are the lies and the facts about what’s been going on:
Congress and the courts did not force the Trump administration to start separating families at the border. No previous administration, operating under the same legal framework, has taken action like this. The recent events are entirely the product of a Trump administration policy to prosecute every adult who crosses the border illegally and to detain them in the meantime.
Detention is not necessary to ensure adult migrants show up in court. The government has assorted means of electronic monitoring that have proven effective (and much cheaper) in achieving that goal.
The “tender care facilities” in which the children are being held are not summer camps or boarding schools or any of the other Orwellian descriptions Mr. Trump’s supporters have concocted. They are places where children are warehoused without knowing where their parents are or when or whether they will ever see them again.
Congress was not required to act to fix this situation. President Trump’s Wednesday executive order effectively admitted as much.
The order does not really resolve the situation. Thousands of minors who have already been separated still don’t know how or when they’ll be returned to their parents, and the administration’s plan to detain families together in immigration facilities is of questionable legality.
Finally, there was no reason to change the way we handled these cases in the first place. Trump administration officials claim a “surge” in illegally entry across the southern border, which is only true in comparison to abnormally low numbers in 2017. The rate of crossings is about the same as it was prior to that.
This is a crisis entirely of President Trump’s making. Any other explanation isn’t just an “alternative fact.” It’s a lie on an inhuman scale.
