For the record, I have no financial interests in Saudi Arabia (or Russia, for that matter). Any suggestion that I have is just more FAKE NEWS (of which there is plenty)!

Replying to @realDonaldTrump
Saudi Arabia owns the entire top floor Trump tower! Your business dealings with Saudi Arabia after 9/11 are MANY when others distanced themselves from them! Youre a LIAR! And youre Son-In-Law has done Hundreds of Millions of loans and business with the Saudis!

He also filed for 8 business licenses with SA while campaigning... I believe 4 of them are active. All these deals were put in place long before he became president... I believe it's payback. It's sure not for the good of our country.

(70,539 posts)Trump lies so often and so boldly that the press doesn't really say that much.
BTW when Trump says something you can expect that the exact opposite is the truth.

(82,383 posts)Statements made by Donald create a presumption of untruth which can only be rebutted with evidence. This is civil of course, not criminal, but likely applies there in reality, too.

(70,539 posts)and it might have been a rouge operation .... I'll pay Elizabeth Warren a million $s if she takes
a DNA test and proves she is an Indian ... millions of illegals voted for Hillary ... Mexico will pay
for the wall ... coal is coming back .... and on and on.
The non stop lying is part of his M.O. and done with a purpose. Hell, the mother fucker lied about
being a billionaire.

(3,208 posts)telling themselves whatever they need to to get through this life...but the problem is when they try to get a job with a major role in things that impact others. I guess sales and that type of work would be fine for this personality type. Someone who wants to work in government needs a firmer grip on reality and the knowledge that what they are doing is to help others.
I keep wanting to shout at tRump: THE WORD "US" IS RIGHT IN THE NAME OF THE COUNTRY!!!!Get a clue!Or, preferably, get out of THIS job!!!!!!!!!!!!!
