Is our President a psychopath or a sociopath. In any case he is a sick, compulsive, habitual liar.
How far will Tweety take us on his journey of lies, and his "TRUTHFUL HYPERBOLE," originally meant to be harmless exaggeration, but, as President, it is more than exaggerations, his lies are dangerous to the World, and Americans.
Tweety's lies are blatant, in-your-face lies and Tweety is boldly looking you in the eyes as he tells his lies. In a way, it is better than the old fashioned politician who tells lies in a much more tricky, concealed way. But Tweety's lies are tribal, and inspire tribalism to the max which is not good for America.
"Donald Trump admits he’ll find ‘some kind of an excuse’ if he’s wrong about North Korea’s Kim Jong Un"

Trump supporters and talking heads like Kellyanne Conway [She, the brain dead surrogate, but nasty clever with deflecting and lies, which Tweety loves!] want to tell you Trump is just joking, being sarcastic, and we need to understand what he really means . . . somehow.
"“I really believe otherwise I wouldn’t be doing this,” Trump said of the summit. “I think, honestly, [Kim] is going to do these things. I might be wrong. I mean, I may stand before you in six months and say, ‘Hey, I was wrong.’
“I don’t know that I will ever admit that, but I’ll find some kind of an excuse,” Trump said."
" . . . I’ll find some kind of an excuse. . . " Trump really said this on national TV. REALLY! Trump told us he will make an excuse and I, personally, do not think he was joking. In fact, I am certain he was not joking.
Trump tells lies and he tells you he likes to tell lies.
"“I Call It Truthful Hyperbole”: The Most Popular Quotes From Trump’s “The Art of the Deal”
The most-highlighted excerpts from Trump’s book take on new meaning, given the way he ran his campaign—and is running America.

"“The final key to the way I promote is bravado. I play to people’s fantasies. People may not always think big themselves, but they can still get very excited by those who do. That’s why a little hyperbole never hurts. People want to believe that something is the biggest and the greatest and the most spectacular. I call it truthful hyperbole. It’s an innocent form of exaggeration—and a very effective form of promotion.”"
Le me repeat this for us all.
"I call it truthful hyperbole. It’s an innocent form of exaggeration—and a very effective form of promotion.”"
The dangerous thing I Trump never hesitates to take his "truthful hyperbole" way, way, way beyond innocent exaggeration as President of the United of America.
When discussing his talks with North Korea he said OUT LOUD, if it fails, I'll find some excuse! Maybe he was being sarcastic, joking, or maybe not!
"President Trump seems to be saying more and more things that aren’t true"
by Ashley Parker June 19
"He’s done it on Twitter. He’s done it in the White House driveway. And he’s done it in a speech to a business group.
President Trump — a man already known for trafficking in mistruths and even outright lies — has been outdoing even himself with falsehoods in recent days, repeating and amplifying bogus claims on several of the most pressing controversies facing his presidency.
Since Saturday, Trump has tweeted false or misleading information at least seven times on the topic of immigration and at least six times on a Justice Department inspector general report into the FBI’s handling of its investigation into Hillary Clinton’s private email server. That’s more than a dozen obfuscations on just two central topics — a figure that does not include falsehoods on other issues, whether in tweets or public remarks.
The false claims come as the president — emboldened by fewer disciplinarians inside the West Wing — indulges in frequent Twitter screeds. A Washington Post analysis found that in June, Trump has been tweeting at the fastest rate of his presidency so far, an average of 11.3 messages per day. "
Tweety IS using lies as a strategy, but he is obvious it is crazy! Big lie lately is he could not change the immigrant family separation because the law required it, THEN HE SIGNED AN EO DOING EXACTLY THAT.
"“It’s extraordinary how he is completely indifferent to truth. There’s just no relationship between his statements — anything he utters — and the actual truth of the matter,” said Thomas Murray, president emeritus of the Hastings Center, the founding institution in the field of bioethics. “As far as I can tell, the best way to understand anything he says is what will best serve his interests in the moment. It’s irrespective to any version of the truth.”"
Reporters hear the lies and ask Tweety to explain and he talks right over their questions.
"On Twitter, the president twice in the past four days has singled out Germany as facing an increase in crime. “Crime in Germany is up 10% plus (officials do not want to report these crimes) since migrants were accepted,” Trump wrote. “Others countries are even worse. Be smart America!”
In fact, the opposite is true. Reported crime in Germany was actually down by 10 percent last year and, according to German Interior Minister Horst Seehofer, the country’s reported crime rate last year was actually at its lowest point in three decades.
The president has also falsely claimed that the inspector general report “exonerated” him from Mueller’s probe, when the report did not delve into the Russia investigation. When he made this argument Friday during an impromptu press gaggle in the White House driveway, a reporter pressed him on the falsehood.
“Sir, that has nothing to do with collusion,” the reporter said. “Why are you lying about it, sir?”"
Why are you lying sir! It is a fair question too much of the time!
