Someone managed to decode his nonsensical AP interview and located 16 untruthful statements by Trump in it. That's apparently the most he's ever managed in a single interview.

This thread is going off at a tangent !
Getting back to Trump. We all know how loony he is but when he backed the repeal for the affordable care act, aka Obamacare, backed/created by Paul Ryan, it failed completely, not because it was a good initial compromise, but because it did not go far enough. So the right wing freedom caucus in the GOP blocked it. So if Donald is mad, what does that make them ????
Let's just roll back a few months. Obama in the executive branch could not get the legislative branch, ie congress to function. Could not even get his supreme court pick to be discussed, never mind stopping government almost being shut down every few months.
So now we have a new President and guess what. Same old sh!t
Donald gets the bad vibes but the US congress seems to be the problem. Compare that when FDR came to power before the war. The US was in a complete mess, the US congress bit the bullet and put into power what FDR wanted, even if they had reservations. The rest is history.
The US way of politics now seems to be so partisan that nothing much can be done by anyone.
As Bernie Ecclestone once said
"In a lot of ways, terrible to say this I suppose, but apart from the fact that Hitler got taken away and persuaded to do things that I have no idea whether he wanted to do or not, he was in the way that he could command a lot of people, able to get things done"
Unlike Trump it seems who gets persuaded to do things and they don't get done.
I do realise I have brought Hitler into the discussion so invoking some Internet arcane law where my testicles / ovaries both explode. So be it.

US politics is f
ked, they are so twisted and entrenched in their positions that stagnation is gaining inertia.In the Circus this week there was a lot of chat about how the dems are finally going to get off their bottoms and vote in the mid-terms, I'll believe it when I see it.

"The scope of Donald Trump’s dishonesty is nothing less than breathtaking and he tells them so smoothly and effortlessly that you have to wonder if he even knows what the truth is any longer.Someone managed to decode his nonsensical AP interview and located 16 untruthful statements by Trump in it.

If you add Trump’s 16 lies to the 16 times he said something completely unintelligible in what was a one-on-one interview, you don’t even need the ever-present cloud Trump’s collusion with Russia to identify him as a man wholly unsuited to the office of president."

A man who lies is not suitable to be a politician? Did you land on earth just yesterday?

Seems that Trumpo's tax announcement goes as far as "these are what I am going to cut taxes to". How the tax cuts will be paid for is, well, a bit of a blank area on the page. Almost as if it hasn't been thought about by the great man.

Trump's tax plan is not a plan, its risible and has no chance of passing, even if they get someone other than a trained chimp to actually turn it from a single piece of paper into a real plan.
Meanwhile the orange bigot now says that he won't withdraw from NAFTA. Another cast iron promise that the gullible mugs in the rust belt who voted for him swallowed whole.

Not being a taxy person, low taxes for me would be great but I know stuff needs paying for. Where is the balance? Will his plan work?
On another note, he is not happy with the 9th circuit judges.
