One of the comments from my last post was that Trump lied about 3,500 times so I checked it out and found that many of the things he said that were called lies by the Democratic media now seem to have been true all along. Also, an email surfaced, supposedly from Trump highlighting some statements that he believes have been proven true. Funny thing no one has apologized or printed retractions. So, let’s go through some of the statements and see what the truth really is.
Remember Hydroxychloroquine, the drug that a few doctors said you can take for some protection? The President’s doctor prescribed it but the President just took it under Doctor’s orders. All of a sudden it was the Presidents drug and the media turned against it. Apparently, some very current studies show some success but just try to look it up on Yahoo or MSN and the reports have been deleted. Anyway the President never said it worked, just that his doctor had prescribed it.
President Trump said that the China Virus came from the Chinese lab in Wuhan. Right away Fauci and all the China supporters said no way “it came from a wet market,” something that was a little disturbing when pictures of the market surfaced. Some stories said it was bat to human transfer. Some stuck with the wet market idea. Now word is coming out that the virus’ DNA was manipulated, something bat’s and even a wet market can’t do. You do not have to be a top scientist to figure out that if you have an unknown virus outbreak in a town where a virus lab is experimenting with new kinds of virus, that’s where it came from.
Trump’s comments on Hunter Biden’s laptop stated its a “laptop from Hell.” Truth is that laptop was found and the FBI has it. The strange thing about it is it has not resulted in any charges even though some of the information has leaked out and that information shows money laundering at the least. The outside information comes from a copy of the drive that is not being held by the FBI. The FBI’s failure to do anything with the information shows that some are above the law and the Biden family are part of that privileged few.
Some said that Lafayette Square was cleared for a photo-op for the President. But the inspector general’s report “exonerated” Trump of a photo-op charge. The official report states, “We found that the Park Police made the decision to clear the park of protesters in order to install an anti-scale fencing to protect the park and U.S. Park Police officers during those protests.” Those protesters also started the fire in the church that Trump visited.
The Blue states lockdown did not work. The facts are that the sickness rate in non-lockdown states were lower than those states that locked-down. That also included those states that either kept their schools open or only closed them for a short time. The Blue states with strong teacher’s union were a disgrace. Private and religious schools that were open had no evidence of spreading the Virus. Also, the Black Lives Matter and Antifa Riots did not become super spreader events.
There were more events but these are good examples of the lies told against Trump but not lies told by Trump, big difference. I wonder if someone is keeping track of Bidens statements.
I just submitted a response to Mike’s post. I would like to revise it.
Lie #1 on Mr. Trump’s first day in office: “The rain just never came” until after he finished his inaugural address. It was absolutely raining during his address.
#2. Coronavirus was “totally under control” it was “disappearing” and would soon “vanish.” None of that was true and Trump himself admitted it to Bob Woodward who has his confession recorded.
#3. The whole scenario of Hurricane Dorian hitting Alabama. The slapstick sharpie drawing on the weather map and the White House pressure on the weather service to change their story when a simple correction would have made the whole matter completely ignored made an absurd three-day news story.
#4 “The head of the boy Scouts” called Trump and told him the National Jamboree speech was “the greatest speech that was ever made to them.” The senior Boy Scout officials confirmed that no such call was ever made.
#5. Trump said over 100 times that the pre-Trump annual trade deficit with China was $500 billion. It never reached $400 billion.
#6. Trump didn’t know about the payment to Stormy Daniels. He personally reimbursed Michael Cohen.
#7. Trump claimed he was the one who signed the Veterans’ Choice healthcare program into law. Obama did it in 2014. Trump did expand the program, but he insisted he was the one and only.
#8. Trump’s “bigger, better, less expensive” healthcare program to replace Obamacare was “coming in two weeks”, or “all written and will be out shortly,” or “just around the corner,” or any number of other lies about an imminent program. It never was and never will be.
#9. “I was named Michigan’s Man of the Year.” He never lived in Michigan. It didn’t happen.
#10. “I won the 2020 election.” 50 states, 50 governors, 50 state legislatures, 50 sets of electors, the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives, and scores and scores of Trump’s appointees and supporters have said he lost in a fair and safe election.
I’ll stop here. Some of these lies were dangerous, some were just plain stupid, but to suggest Mr. Trump is not a liar is unsupportable.
MIKE, YOUR POST IS SPOT ON!! THE ONE HIGHLIGHT IS; WHO IS KEEPING TRACK OF JOE ??? CNN??? (lol)
John. There are more networks than CNN keeping track. I have my doubts on FOX since they won the defamation suit against the Playboy model when the defense won with the “no reasonable person would believe what Tucker Carlson says”
Trump’s lies caused over 400,000 needless deaths. He lied when he said the virus was under control and that we should go on with our lives. I remember seeing a story about a man who died after he went ahead on a cruise vacation when he heard the Trump lie. He died from the virus.
Trump’s “big lie” about the 2020 election caused five deaths at the capitol and hundreds of injuries to the capitol police. He has lied repeatedly about the election and it is destroying our country. Trump is not coming back as president, not now, not never.
His “big lie” is only an excuse to fleece money from the Mike Young’s of the country. Stir up the base and steal their money. He is using their money to pay his golf expenses and other living expenses.
His lies and criminal conduct will result in more indictments. The word is that Ivanka is next in line for multiple indictments for tax fraud. The boys are next in line with Trump being last.
Anyone who has lived in New York can tell you what a crook Trump is and has been for many years. His father was worse but had the backing of the mob to keep him out of jail. Don no longer has that protection.
And lastly, the recent ranking of presidents by historians has Trump almost last. After a few more years, he should be dead last.
I question why the four page rebuttal to Mike that I posted twice did not show up.
Because our website doesn’t allow a four-page rebuttal
How many can I post?
Seems to me you might like a position as an opinion writer? LOL How about giving someone a chance to read it all then respond to what you’ve already posted? I won’t stop you unless you begin to get ugly and personal. You’re welcome to list as many facts as you believe you have. Are you attempting to list them all?
My four pages are too large for the website so I will break them up into smaller posts.
