President Trump granted a lengthy interview to Time magazine in honor of completing his first 100 days of his second term today.
And his low bar for reality was as predictable as ever.
A WaPo fact check of the interview found 32 verifiable instances of just such crazy talk.
17 false
3 wrong
1 poppycock
2 dubious
2 exaggerated
1 lacking context
1 fantasy
3 misleading
1 contrary he said/she said statement
1 refutes his own government’s actions
Let’s just imagine if Joe Biden had given such an interview.
Why do we accept this behavior from our president? Why do supporters insist on trying to convince us there is some master plan in his every utterance when it seems abundantly clear he must live in a world of complete conspiracy theory and/or delusion?
Why does he lie, exaggerate, misconstrue, fabricate and twist every sentence that comes out of his mouth? And because he is president, assumed to have certain characteristics appropriate to the office he holds, the media must treat his nonsense as having merit? When in reality he might be nuts? Or at the least, pathological?
Why are you happy with a president who behaves like this? Why do you make excuses for such abnormal dissociation from reality?
Just because he believes it to be true, doesn’t make it so. Only his enablers make it so.
Trump, his administration, and the GOP Congress are trying to mesmerize the American people into believing unbelievable things. And to not believe we see and hear every day with our very own eyes and ears.
Trump has taken a keen interest in playing golf, renaming the Gulf of Mexico, banning paper straws, watching an enormous amount of television, and helping steer the Kennedy Center — but on life-or-death issues, he’s offering the public a lot of shrugged shoulders and blank stares. And continuous nonsensical ramblings combined with the power to kill the country.
The Emperor has no clothes and this is the best you can give us?
