when pigs fly or when Melania gives her interview about her immigration,
He is such a liar, it would have to be a subpoena. I feel he is digging the hole deeper & deeper.
Wonder how long his lawyers can take it, He doesn't pay & he doesn't listen. Hope they got paid up front.

Excerpt:
"The attitude of the narcissist towards lying is very childish and simple: If the narcissist lies and gets away with it, (s)he interprets this as being clever and superior to others. In this sense, while common sense clearly sees lying as a social ill, the narcissist views lying as an excellent tool to obtain what (s)he wants and as a means to demonstrate how stupid others are."
"When dealing with a narcissist, extreme care must be taken and events need to be recorded. It also is important to communicate with others who have to deal with the narcissist in order to counter-act splitting. This is, the narcissist uses lies in order to set up people against each other. In general, this is quite simple: The narcissist tells a person A that person B doesn't like person A and the same the other way round. This then prevents A from talking to B and hence both parties can be manipulated through the narcissist's lies.
"While a normal person will be embarrassed when found out lying, not so the narcissist. The narcissist will see this as a threat to her/his superiority and will straight away think of ways of how to overcome this threat and this is by forming new lies.
"To say it in one sentence: For the narcissist lying is fun and a tool, and anybody who doesn't lie is a fool in the eyes of the narcissist. Trying to communicate with a narcissist is therefore pointless."

(3,867 posts)Clinton only lied about a BJ & got impeached, loser 45 is lying about Russian connections, somehow I feel that is more dangerous for democracy,
then all that is needed to bring Trump down is to force him to answer some questions under oath. Narcissists are pathological liars. Trump would not be able to help but lie, even under oath. The way to destroy this guy politically is to question him under oath, and then get him to contradict himself, as he inevitably will.
