Scaramucci: Trump should probably dial down the lying
The Hill ^ | 10/24/18 | John Bowden

Posted on 10/24/2018 11:05:05 AM PDT by ek_hornbeck

Former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci on Wednesday accused President Trump of dishonesty, but said his lies were similar to those of any politician.

In an interview on CNN's "New Day," Scaramucci looked into the camera to address Trump and said, "You know, you're a politician now, so politicians lie when their lips are moving, and so all these people lie."

"But you should probably dial down the lying, because you don't need to," he added. "You're doing a great job for the country. So dial that down, and you'll be doing a lot better."

See, this is what I keep asking too. I keep hearing liberals say, “Trump can’t talk without lying.” OK. On THREE occassions, I have politely requested an example of his lies. NOT ONE TIME has anyone been able to cite a specific example. I ask the same thing on the racism issue. Just give me one example. CRICKETS.

Real bright people, those liberal haters.

CNN would interview a sledge hammer as long as it helped their political agenda.

Is he just upset that Don Jr is now with his ex girlfriend? Did her improved taste make him angry and vindictive?

What the left doesn't get, and never will, is Trump is the President because he isn't a politician. As long as the left can't wrap their mush around that, Trump will be successful.

I see people on TV every day or so that say Trump is lying, but they never give examples of such lying.

Trump exaggerates some things, but lying is not the proper term. ...Obama, Schumer and Pelosi lied to the country about the disaster called Obamacare.

The word Rush used to use is "disingenuous."

Who said: Dr. Christine Blasey Ford’s testimony about her alleged sexual assault by Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh was “very compelling?" Who called her a “very credible witness?"

"I thought her testimony was very compelling and she looks like a very fine woman to me, very fine woman,” speaking of Ford while speaking to reporters on Friday. “It was an incredible moment I think in the history of our country,” he continued. “But certainly [Ford] was a very credible witness. She was very good in many respects."

Maybe he intended it as sarcasm to make the talking heads chase their own [tales].
