President Donald Trump is dismissing the idea that launching the war with Iran this year betrayed his refrain of “No new wars” that he made repeatedly as he campaigned again for the White House.

      I would say that excludes him lying when writing or typing, but I’m not sure he’s capable of doing so without speaking aloud so it’s moot.

        I was gonna say that he probably mouths all the words while typing and with a lot of tongue action. Like a child trying to get their crayon starting just so.

    Of course he does. He will blatantly lie regardless of the facts.

    That’s why there were so many billionaires applauding on the victory stage with him. Have you ever seen so many grinning billionaires in one place?

    Trump and LLM’s both seem to get away with an amazingly juvenile and half assed level of bullshit.

    Like, the people who lap this up are on a whole other level of stupid.

    Well, I haven’t been following the news, but Iran is stable; we’re not in an occupation fighting the natural political tendencies of an entire populace the way we were in Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan… Iran is not a china shop.
