Given that Donald Trump is an inveterate habitual prevaricator, why do people keep asking whether or not he lies?

I suspect they are drinking a lot or taking hallucinogenic mushrooms.

[msc545]

I think that he is characterologically incapable of being truthful.

[lightbulb27]

maybe his version of the truth differs from reality of others?

[msc545]

No, I don't think he's quite that deranged, and it's more like he just doesn't feel any obligation to tell the truth to anyone when lies work so much better for him.

[lightbulb27]

Why do people lie... or more specifically... him?

I find this guy to likely be accurate, but there are two different views. He may actually think he's "won", etc..

I find he's always been about using words to control. He will use whatever words he needs to enforce control, coerce and get what he wants. What he wants is generally good, but may not be achievable. That will vary by issue.

translation for those who might read this and think Trump was called an invertebrate pervert-velociraptor...

what he asked, is... If you already know that Trump is a fokin' bullshitter, when why the fok' do you keep asking if he's just bullshitting...

of course he is... and you already know it

[NathanDavis]

@valentina4eva I knew it would come in handy for some.. haha

[msc545]

Nathan, thanks for translating. It kind of slipped my mind that it might require that.

[NathanDavis]

Trump is the boy who cried wolf.
