"Yep, maybe I am just simple, but I look at what a man has done not what he says. It is the Texas way."

I suspect I have some of that Texan simplicity in my genes somewhere 'cause I'm the same way....a person's record of what they've done seen as a pattern of their character type is basis for what can be expected.

Clinton42 had a pattern of lying or distorting truth - isn't that an indicator he shouldn't be trusted to tell the truth in future encounters? I think so..."trust but verify" only applies when someone hasn't broken that trust.

Yep, it is a good policy that has served me well in the past.
