1. Trump lied?

I'm shocked!

Recommended.

[Rorey]

42. He's got a "tell" when he lies.

His ugly mouth opens and sounds come out. When that happens, you know he's lying.

His other "tell" is when he sends tweets.

[LiberalFighter]

47. His other tell is when he repeats it more than twice.

[bitterross]

48. Yep, his lips are moving.

That's the tell.

[Blue_true]

61. Worse that that. There is something wrong in that guy's head. nt

[hlthe2b]

2. Oh, gawd.. I heard that. How utterly ridiculous.

MORON

[sinkingfeeling]

3. He needs to be committed for a mental evaluation NOW. Does he

think none of us have ever watched the news in the past 70 years?

[H2O Man]

7. Seriously good point.

Thank you.

[malaise]

11. I love how he throws in the

'They tell me' for now he will blame 'them' for this massive lie.

[H2O Man]

29. Right.

He is so similar to the forensic clients I had at the mental health clinic ....especially those I saw in the county jail.

[Crutchez_CuiBono]

32. And 'we'

Such a buffoon. He tries his absolute best to sound like a president, but, he just comes off as a know nothing rich kid, corporate shill. Imagine the businesses this guy has run and the fear of god they all lived with wondering if on any given day, they would be fodder for a "you're fired' style tantrum. he hasn't worked this hard in his life.(doing nothing)..and he gets treated like a king. And we pay for it.
Are we still paying 200k a year for that effin bodyguard these days?

[malaise]

65. A grown up Richie Rich?

[LiberalFighter]

45. When he says "they tell me" it is usually a lie.

[malaise]

68. In his case

always not usually

[cwydro]

46. Exactly.

[yardwork]

16. His base doesn't watch real news, and they believe him.

Trump knows that if one lies big enough and confidently enough, many people will believe. He learned this from Hitler. Trump reads Hitler's books.

[Golden Raisin]

27. Most of his base couldn't identify London (or England) on a map

if their lives depended on it.

[demmiblue]

20. The thing is, it looks like he was reading prepared remarks authored by staff.

He is a dipshit, but I think these constant lies are generated to keep people off-kilter (both by him and his staff). They are the gaslight administration... nothing too small, nothing too big. Purposeful.

[Cha]

25. He needs to be committed to an

insane asylum for terminal pathological LIARS.

[The Genealogist]

4. Has he ever claimed anything other than falsely?

[demmiblue]

5. Trump wrongly says queen reviewed guard for 1st time in 70 years

President Trump claimed Tuesday that during his visit to England, Queen Elizabeth II reviewed her Guard of Honor for the first time in 70 years -- but she's only been queen for 65 years. And as any royal-watcher knows, reviewing the guard is something she's been photographed doing many times over the years.

"We met with the queen, who is absolutely a terrific person, where she reviewed her Honor Guard for the first time in 70 years, they tell me," Mr. Trump said at the White House Tuesday. "We walked in front of the Honor Guard and that was very inspiring to see and be with her. And I think the relationship, I can truly say is a good one. But she was very, very inspiring indeed."

The queen's coronation was in June 1953. Reviewing the Honor Guard is a frequent part of her royal duties. She did so with President Obama during his visit to Buckingham Palace in 2011.

Is there nothing he won't lie about?! Yes, I already know the answer. Also, to the media, please use 'LIE' more often.

[malaise]

14. She was waiting for this moment with Don the Con

That is some sick sense of self importance.

[HipChick]

34. HRH II has only been on the throne 66yrs...

[malaise]

39. Her coronation was my political awakening

My favorite aunt mocked my parents over the celebrations and my political awareness was born I was under four.

[HipChick]

40. Lol! Why does he lie about stuff that can easily be checked?

[malaise]

41. It's pathological

Everything has to revolve around him.

[mwooldri]

19. It could be longer than 70 years.

Her dad ascended to the throne in 1936. It is conceivable that Princess Elizabeth reviewed the Kings Guard with her father. Now I wouldn't expect her to review the guard frequently as Princess.

[Autumn]

62. Much shorter than 70 years. I saw her do it in 2011 when the Obama's visited.

[SummerSnow]

35. He's sick...

1. he met her for the very first time and says they have a good relationship.
2. he lied about the reviewing of the guard
3. his lies have lies
4. There is no 'they' that told him anything

[robbob]

66. Well, there's your answer...

IF that was the last time she reviewed the guards (in 2011, with Obama), that would be SEVEN years ago. Someone told him 7, he repeats it as 70. Once again, he “misspoke”.

[Docreed2003]

6. Well whoever "they" were that told you that

Were absolutely full of shit!! She hasn't even been Queen for 70 years you fucking dipshit!! By my count 2018 minus 1952 is 66 years!! And she does that on the reg!! You're the one who looked like the dipshit corgi she had to lead through that event, you uncultured swine!

(Edit...I realize the coronation was in '53 but her father passed in 52, thus the math)

[tblue37]

23. "They" are the voices clamoring in his head. nt

[Docreed2003]

26. No doubt! Nt

[Cha]

28. ..

[Docreed2003]

36. Truth Cha!!! Mahalo!!

[Cha]

44. Amen! God, if trump is lying give me a sign..

Link to tweet

Dawg.. his stupid voice is like chalk on a blackboard.. freaking Fraud Russian ASSet.

[Docreed2003]

49. Lmao!!

[greatauntoftriplets]

31. It was the voices in his head.

[Sophia4]

38. She may have said "nearly 70 years." Trump gets everything mixed up.

Trump is not mentally qualified to be president.

He will get our country into trouble.

[Solly Mack]

8. LMAO Because his visit had to be special in some way - so he lies.

No doubt - she did it for him - is part of the complete lie.

LMAO

Idiot

Liar

[Docreed2003]

9. Oh...and moron...

Here's that dude you hate reviewing the guard with the Queen!

[htuttle]

17. Oh, and Charles, Camilla and Phillip were all there

Apparently, they were otherwise engaged while Trump was in town. Something to do with a "24 hours of Wallace and Gromit" event.

[Docreed2003]

33. I'd watch "Wallace and Gromit" all day too...

If it meant I could avoid the Orange Shitgibbon!

[madaboutharry]

54. And the whole family is there!

Not like when Trump came to see the Queen and they all refused to show up.

[boston bean]

10. The Queen told him she hadn't missed inspecting the guard for 70 years. That n't will get you every

time.

[htuttle]

12. Any day now, he's going to claim that he invented the apostrophe.

[Brother Buzz]

13. where she reviewed her Honor Guard for the first time in 70 years, they tell me....

'They' are enjoying their barley sandwiches and laughing their heads off.

[SeattleVet]

15. After listening to him for several decades (I used to live in NYC), I've realized he's NOT a liar...

he's a bullshitter, after reading Harry Frankfurt's (Professor Emeritus if Philosophy, Princeton University) piece, 'On Bullshit' (2005):

----------------------
It is impossible for someone to lie unless he thinks he knows the truth. Producing bullshit requires no such conviction. A person who lies is thereby responding to the truth, and he is to that extent respectful of it. When an honest man speaks, he says only what he believes to be true; and for the liar, it is correspondingly indispensable that he considers his statements to be false. For the bullshitter, however, all these bets are off: he is neither on the side of the true nor on the side of the false. His eye is not on the facts at all, as the eyes of the honest man and of the liar are, except insofar as they may be pertinent to his interest in getting away with what he says. He does not care whether the things he says describe reality correctly. He just picks them out, or makes them up, to suit his purpose.

[dchill]

22. Bullshit!

Couldn't resist.

[scarletwoman]

43. Excellent analysis! Makes total sense! Thank you! nt

[spanone]

18. The Queen actually inspects her Honour Guard many times a year.....

He said: "We met with the queen, who is absolutely a terrific person, where she reviewed her Honour Guard for the first time in 70 years, they tell me. We walked in front of the Honour Guard and that was very inspiring to see and be with her. And I think the relationship, I can truly say is a good one. But she was very, very inspiring indeed."

The Queen actually inspects her Honour Guard many times a year and does so for important events such as visiting heads of state.

[smirkymonkey]

51. He met her once for 45 minutes and he thinks he has a "relationship" with her.

He's so delusional. He doesn't know what it is to have a relationship with anyway. These people are just doing their jobs and putting up with you because they have to in order to keep things running smoothly. They are merely tolerating you.

He also said he thinks the people in Ireland and Scotland love him, which is another example of his delusion. He is widely despised in both countries.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

52. I learned a new word the other day: Pronoia.

It's the opposite of paranoia; it's the delusion that everybody likes you. Trump has a really bad case of it.

[smirkymonkey]

58. That's it!

I didn't know there was such a word! Describes him perfectly.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

21. She did it for the first time ever, just because he was there. She did it all for him.

She's been visited by many other presidents and other heads of state over the years, but she never reviewed her guard with them. She did it only for Trump because he's so much more special than anybody else.

[Grammy23]

30. At least that is what THEY told him.

I wish we knew who these dumbass people are so they can be publicly shamed and fired for misleading tRump.

[Arkansas Granny]

50. It's the same "they" that might talk you into jumping off a bridge.

You know, the "they" your mother warned you about.

[Luz]

24. They tell me. That's his tell that even he knows he's full of

shit. So they tell me.

[gademocrat7]

37. What a despicable buffoon.

[oasis]

53. Fish gotta swim, birds gotta fly, Pence gotta sham, Trump gotta lie.

It's the natural order of things.

[C_U_L8R]

55. He lies about the stupidest stuff.

And his lies are so easily disproved.
Is he stupid or just doesn't give a shit.
I'm afraid to see how this story ends.
It will be ugly.

[oberliner]

56. Where do you think he got that from?

Seems like a weirdly specific and pointless thing to lie about. Did he read that somewhere? Was he mixing it up with something? Anyone know?

[HipChick]

57. He made it up....

[GoCubsGo]

59. It was the first time in 70 years that anyone made her wait around to do it.

No other guest was ever rudely late for the event, other than you, you syphilis-addled imbecile.

[Blue_true]

60. What is wrong with that guy?

An incredibly easy to prove lie.

[JHB]

64. He misheard what came in through his earpiece...

Must have been a burst of static. You'd think he'd have gotten used to the Russian accent by now.

[Blue_true]

67. Or maybe Vlad drank too much vodka and Trump was just a little loopy at the podium. nt

[Music Man]

63. I can just imagine his fluffers having to tell him stuff like this.

"She is reviewing her Honour Guard for the first time in 70 years just for YOU! She didn't even meet with Obama. And she spelled it Honor Guard until U came along. She even changed the space-time continuum so she could be queen 70 years ago to review it. And it's all because of YOU, Donald John Trump!"

The verbal equivalent of Potemkin Villages.
