    Not lying is one of those 10 commandments I'd consider a Christian to know. Considering the "Christians" like yourself who supports this person, I'm not surprised you're not concerned.

    It would really be a nice thing if we could get this President Trump- and you see the kids getting all excited? They should- he is the President. And we really should wish for him to do well. It's just...... whew, difficult.

    I know this sounds weird, but I actually think there is a decent, funny human being lurking somewhere inside President Trump. It would be nice if that Trump came out more often vs. well, you know.

    Thanks to General Kelly, here are a list of Trump's "convincing evidence": proof of Obama wiretapping him, rampant vote fraud, millions that attended his inauguration, Big Foot, Loch Ness Monster, pot of gold, Unicorns...

    Things for which we’re waiting to see Trump’s ‘convincing evidence’

    Sometimes I really wonder why trump so casually utters so many lies, needlessly...

    Trump Claims Top Dem Told Him He'd Be 'One of the Great Presidents'
    President Donald Trump said in a New York Times interview that a top House Democrat heaped high praise on him during a private meeting, yet continued to criticize him in public.

    Claiming that Democrats admit in private that they're not strongly opposed to Neil Gorsuch as a Supreme Court nominee, Trump dropped the following bombshell:

    "Elijah Cummings [a Democratic representative from Maryland] was in my office and he said, 'You will go down as one of the great presidents in the history of our country,'" Trump told reporter Maggie Haberman.

    Trump said he later saw Cummings bashing him on TV and thought, "Is that the same man that said that to me?"

    But Cummings, the ranking member on the House Oversight Committee, has since disputed Trump's version of events.

    He told the Washington Post:

    During my meeting with the president and on several occasions since then, I have said repeatedly that he could be a great president if … if … he takes steps to truly represent all Americans rather than continuing on the divisive and harmful path he is currently on.

    Trump heard the initial compliment before the conditional statement and then his brain shut down... Par the course for Donny boy.

    In this instance, I doubt he lied. He was just really really stupid. I think 50% of his lies can be attributed to his nativity.

    just like his recent claim that
    "what Susan Rice did (unmasking the identity of US citizens incidental to the surveillance of foreign spies) was a crime.
    his ignorance is such that he is confusing "unmasking" with leaking.​

    This is his biggest lie so far:

    http://nymag.com/daily/intelligence...ically-successful-13-weeks-of-presidency.html


    Donald Trump today told reporters, “I think we’ve had one of the most successful 13 weeks in the history of the presidency.” This may be a literally true statement, in the sense that Trump may actually think it. However, it is a strange opinion for a person to hold. Trump has had two executive orders blocked by federal courts; seen his first, major legislative initiative collapse in the House of Representatives after falling to 17 percent in the polls; accepted the resignation of his National Security Adviser; is facing a major investigation by the FBI; has probably violated the Constitution; has assembled a staff riven by utter mutual loathing; and has lowest approval ratings ever recorded for a president as this stage in his term.

    He has also only held office for 11 weeks, even though it may feel like 13 or even more.

    Republicans don't know how to govern, they just know how to make money and play politics
