    Maybe you should ask why he wants to date his daughter?

    No, he is just a lying POS. He knows what he is doing, he just doesn’t care.

    Yes, and AOC is a radical.... but even she wouldn’t claim noise causes cancer or say her father is from the wrong country.

    He is President of the USA and is making these claims, publicly... and no one is surprised.

    Trump is unraveling before our eyes


    Remember, this is Jenifer Rubin, who, pre-Trump, was a right wing blogger

    It's not carcinogenic it's infrasound but your premise is still true that same infrasound would be happening in any other electric generating plant that uses the same turbine technology.

    Six theories on why Trump lies:

    Why does President Trump tell such stupid, obvious lies?

    You know the lies I mean. Not the lies of self-service, flattery, or malice. Those lies are frequent and reprehensible, but they at least have a certain logic: We can understand whyTrump would lie to advance a policy aim, to undermine a political enemy or bolster a friend, to enhance his bank account, or to protect himself from legal trouble. We can grasp the rationale of those lies while opposing their use.

    But then there are the other lies. The unutterably dumb lies. The pointless, easily disprovable lies that serve no obvious purpose. Like Trump's longand continuing obsession with crowd sizes, which he consistently falsifies despite photo evidence of the truth. Or his reported insistence to GOP donors that he did not say "Tim Apple" — a minor verbal flub, caught on camera, which no one would have cared about beyond a momentary giggle had Trump not fixated on denying it. Or consider this week's whopper, in which Trump claimed his father was born in Germany, when in fact it is well-established that Fred Christ Trump was born in New York. Trump has told this lie at least thrice — but why?

    In fact, why tell any of these lies? Why launch, unprompted, into what appears to be a worse-than-useless falsehood that will inevitably come under public scrutiny and be quickly debunked? "I just thought, why would you lie about that," one donor said of the "Tim Apple" thing. "It doesn't even matter!"

    Why, indeed? Here are six possible explanations.​

    I do not think that Trump is motivated to tell the truth in his public statements.

    Trump is a marketeer at his core. Trump is selling a slogan, shaping it as time goes by, so that it will continue to sell.

    honestly I haven't followed the particulars on any of this, but I did just watch the bit about the windmills, and that clearly seems like an offhand comment aimed at humor--he had just gotten done poking fun at Clinton's "wanting windmills." wouldn't surprise me if the rest of it is humor as well, lame or otherwise

    When the bulwark and the daily kos are running the exact same blog post, and the bulwark is actually stealing my thread title, you don't think there's any there there?

    Read again, taken in isolation, sure, no one of these things is an immediate sign of age-related mental decline or dementia.

    Taken cumulatively - in conjunction with all the other evidence we have, it's no laughing matter

    So just come out and say it. Why give it any credence whatsoever if it’s total malarkey??

    I am sure you know quite a few insane-asylum inmates. By the way, given that you definitely didn't escape...how did you get out?

    he says whatever crap comes into his head, and then decides later what he thinks of it.
