11. Trump is a LIAR

Whether he knows the facts is entirely besides the point because facts and truth matter not a whit to him.

Whatever words come from his mouth or fingers on social media serve his interests in the moment -- what he wants the public to believe.

Trying to keep track of all his false and misleading statements is exhaustive, which is part of the strategy. Flood the zone with so much shit to overwhelm his detractors and to normalize behavior that would have ended the political career of anyone who came before him.

The corporate media is, of course, complicit.
