Also, not paying contractors, cities, employees, caterers, not honoring commitments, and blocking normal exposure to facts like grades and tax returns.
America loves a liar. But only one who goes all in, never waivers. You have to commit to that lying in your fucking soul. The kind of lying that when yo meet Paul at the pearly gates, you stick to that lie even then. That is lying that America not only respects but loves. Long history of it.
“Knack”? This is where the media and the political establishment went wrong. Dismissing mendacity as a quirky little character trait was unforgivable. The same happened here in the UK where serial liar Boris Johnson was fawned over. That ended badly, too.
Unless you lived in the proximity of NY in the 80s and 90s you really didn't know who he was ... He wasn't an interesting character by any means.... But for some convoluted reason the fuckin hillbillies and the morons fell in love with this blithering idiot during that stupid reality show 🤔🧐
No one appreciates the technology of lying the Trump invented (or amplified Roy Cohn's).
Goebbel's Big Lie was repeating a lie until everyone believes it. Trump's technique is relentlessly repeating obvious lies no one believes but gets too exhausted to oppose.
Trump's lies are not believable lies, so
the real key to his success is
locating and identifying
stupid and/or gullible rubes
and persuading them vote against their own interests.
moreover, the morons he targets
will never be willing to admit
that they were deceived.
instead, they'll double down.
I said in 2015 the reporters should be interviewing people on the streets of New York. They would have gotten a taste of reality. But then would the MAGA Minions have ever heard any of it?
Indeed! It wasn't the hardest deduction to make after Trump stood up in front of the entire world and blamed Ukraine for starting the war against Russia.
This was not even news in the 1980s
Back then, when Trump would lie, the newspapers would not even report it because it was not news:
It was "Dog bites man"
Peter Baker's #1 priority was to take out Joe Biden by any means necessary and lie any lie to put Trump back in the Oval Office. Once that was accomplished now he "tries" but FAILS to be a "journalist" again...
Years of sane-washing. Much denying.
New York Times finally wrote he’s lying.
A new boldness? No more softballs?
Has the Grey Lady finally grown balls?
well, it's a little late for the NYT to be saying this. 6 months ago would have been more helpful but they were too busy concentration on how Biden had dementia - when he didn't and doesn't.
Same with CNN and WP which have suddenly written against Trump - as if there was a credible alternative.
I imagine that one of the “editors” remembered how much king Diapers Ass duh Foist hates journalists after he dreamt about being in front of a firing squad.

He was a blow hard back then, and he has not changed one bit.
He is a liar, and you can tell by all of the times his former investment partners and contractors sued him.
He always walked away with money before everyone lost their shirts.
Here's a thought for the press;
Every. Accusation. Is. An. Admission.
Years of sane-washing. Much denying.

He is for and against everything, day he support and oppose anything. So when asked, he never said that, and there is proof he said the opposite.

We knew about the Dangers of burning Coal in Large Amounts then & Now ? WHO would have thought ?

He has behaved like a thug in public view enough that no one can say they don't know how dangerous he is.
It's past time to end his being at large.
As if it’s not a deliberate choice that serves a specific purpose.
The NYT is such utter trash.
