I submit that he was caught in the lie.  He was never ever going to admit that the "MS13" was added to the photo.

But, you're probably right that he was going to lie in a similar baldfaced fashion for every other topic.

I read something awhile back that Trump's brain is so mush-like, and he's told so many lies/fabrications in his life that he can't keep anything straight, which explains why he says one thing one day and something completely the opposite the next -- and has no realization of what he's doing. The "truth" is what he believes it is at any given moment.

It's not even that deep.  He says words that will obtain for him the most gratification possible in any given moment.  Whether or not they are true, or he even believes they are true, has no bearing on it whatsoever.

If he walked into a hotel, and the sign said "free night in the Presidential Suite for anyone from East Timor," he'd saunter up to the desk and say "I'm from East Timor."  And whether that was true or not would not even figure in to the calculus.  Rather, those are the words he needs to say to get him the gratification he wants in a particular moment, so those are the words he will say.  That's all there is to it.  Whether it's true or not never even enters into the calculus in his purely selfish and narcissist brain.

Concepts like "truth" and "lie" can only be considered and calculated by someone who has a grasp of morality and a calculus of moral behavior.  He has none.  Zero.  His brain does not come with that feature, so assigning to him the immoral act of choosing to tell a lie is not an accurate characterization of what happened inside his head.

The really fun part with aging narcissists is that they have spent so long being 100% convinced that everything coming out of their mouths is the absolute truth... that when the crazy REALLY kicks in, they still think it must be true, because it's coming out of their mouth.

Except for the fact they are ‘leading the free world’

Amigo.  Dude.  It's been over for a while now.

While it feels like we're on a non-recoverable course--and almost certainly are--there's still a difference between attempted resistance, and limpdick as it is, and complete acquiesce.

Some good news (for now) 

 

Need to look for the small print footnote that says "released into El Salvadorian custody"

Finally, someone in the administration told the truth.  We have never seen anything like it.

When we had Baghdad Bob, every American - no matter their political affiliation - would laugh and shake their head at the ridiculous Iraqi propaganda.  Some form of "how fucking pathetic is this?" probably ran through most people's minds. 

Now, half our country sticks their head in the sand when it's happening on our own soil.

also, i wish i could find it, but there was another twitter interaction that’s one of my favorites of all time. some republican politician went to twitter after seeing tom morello make a political statement, to tell him that he had always liked RATM’s music, but that he would no longer want to listen to it if musicians like that want to opine in politics. “just keep it about the music” and such. someone’s outstanding comment:

OK I GUESS I’LL DO WHAT YOU TELL ME

lmao, never forgot that one.

Yes, Rage Against the MACHINE, just keep it about your music, which has never been about politics in any way, shape, or form.

If I haven’t checked this thread in a couple of days and it has jumped more than one page in length, I just skip to the end. It’s too fucked up to actually read through all the new nonsense.

I mean we're not really that far away from reports of Trump making 18 holes-in-one in a single round of golf are we?

One of my all time favorite clap backs was in a similar situation and the respondent asked “Hey dumbass, what machine do you think they’re raging against?  The washing machine?”

Hey, wait a minute. I’m beginning to think this Trump guy just wants to enrich himself at everyone else’s expense
