    I usually depend upon Slate or Washpo for truthiness but Politifact had me laughing so hard:

    Now we can get a real sense of graphic lying. hahahaha

    ​
    Here's an example of 30 lies of Trump under oath at Slate:

    Oh and here you can find the Pinnochio roundup at Washpo.

    REMEMBRANCES OF THINGS PAST.


    HERE IS SOMETHING FROM A GUY NAMED GITLIN AT WASHPO:


    On Oct. 24, 1968 , at Manhattan’s Madison Square Garden, in the very heartland of the “intellectual morons,” as the third-party presidential candidate George Wallace was given to say, Wallace told a cheering overflow crowd of 20,000 about a protester who had laid down in front of Lyndon B. Johnson’s limousine. His take was this: “When November comes, the first time they lie down in front of my limousine, it’ll be the last one they ever lay down in front of.” Protesters shouted in the arena. “After November 5, you anarchists are through in this country,” he told the demonstrators. “You’d better have your say now.” Outside the hall, Wallace supporters and adversaries clashed with each other and with the police, while inside, officers rescued a group of black protesters surrounded by Wallaceites who chanted: “Kill ’em! Kill ’em!”

    In two days we reach the first day of Fall.


    Leaves are just beginning to turn up here.


    But just beginning.


    Two weeks ago I found that I needed a sweat-shirt in my unheated apartment (we heat this building beginning October first) but I have needed a sweater on the road, so to speak..


    We have fifty days until the election.


    In six days we shall witness a 'debate' between a life long statesperson and an idiot. hahahah

    ​
    I should not laugh, idiots do win debates by de-fault of our media. hahahah

    ​But more than leaves will turn in the next 50 days.

    That is all I got for now. ha

     

     

     

    Comments

    I would predict the violence, actual or hinted at,  probability would be higher and more extended time wise if he won the election.

    Any Trumpian fiascoes, and they are sure to be numerous and frequent, would be in whole or part blamed on anti-Trump 'Democrat subversionist deadenders'  for Trump to rail about and vocally pick as targets.

    Social unrest, as well as deflecting accountability, would take news cycle focus off administration failures abroad and any  economic deterioration at home. Call it the kristallnacht scenario.

    "A Trump administration cannot fail, it can only be sabotaged."

    Oh NCD, in case this sociopath wins he will say:

    THE AMERICAN PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN!

    If he loses he will say:

    THE FIX WAS IN.

    For Trump there is no truth nor justice nor a real American Way.

    DDay, your second link made me realize for the first time that Trump probably hasn't even read his own books!  We know he didn't write them but I'm pretty sure now he doesn't even read them. What a doofus.

    Yeah I know Cville.

    Even his co-autobiographical author (hahahaha) just cannot believe this man has the concentration of a gnat. hahaha

    Tony Schwartz thinks this monster is mentally incompetent. haha

    http://abcnews.go.com/US/tony-schwartz-author-donald-trumps-art-deal-trump/story?id=40662196

    And Schwartz warns us all that we must never elect this idiot.

    You will enjoy this.  Laura Nyro, who wrote this song and many others from our youth, "Save the Country."

    Flim Flam Man.  Hands Of The Man.  This was the one I was looking for.  But I will leave the other one up.
