It’s so frustrating that we can’t just call a spade a spade.

My response to an obvious troll is against my better judgement however I really hate when someone abuses logic to support their arguments, even trolls.

You stated Trump lied about 1, 2 and 3.

Others asked you to support your statement that Trump lied about 1,2 or 3.

Your argument of support was basically "all politicians lie".

Therefore, you conclude that Trump lied about 1,2 and 3.

It goes without saying for non-trolls that the fact that all politicians lie doesn't support the argument that Trump lied unless you can prove that all politicians lie about every statement they make (and that Trump is a politician).

Further even if it was demonstrated that Trump lies often it still doesn't provide support that Trump lied about 1,2 or 3 unless you can prove that Trump always lies.

The problem in general with Trolls is they use logical fallacies and apparently believe that logical fallacies are no different that logic.

Unless you can provide specific evidence other that "they all do it" your argument that Trump lied about the aforementioned items is without a factual foundation.

Ya know why for many years the electric cho cho trains in LA don’t go all the way to the airport but stop short about a mile?

Funny you should mention that...the same thing happened at SeaTac Airport with the light rail. Ron Sims, a politician so slimy he was too slimy for Obama, was the head honcho at Sound Transit. The first stage of light rail construction should have extended south of the airport, but ended about a mile north. I assumed that was deliberate, to prime the pump for Stage 2. I suppose it's more logical that $$$ were involved.

Are you saying that you don’t think the president has lied about anything ?

Let him who is without sin cast the first stone.

Have YOU ever lied about anything? If you say no, then you are a liar. If you say yes, then you are a liar.

I got home from work and started watching his testimony on Youtube and shut it off after about 30 seconds when I heard him say this: "Trump ran on a campaign of hate and intolerance" Right there Cohen just completely exposed himself as full of sh*t. Sorry Mike, wanting to get ILLEGAL immigration under control after DECADES of Presidents saying the same thing is not "hate and intolerance" you lying asswipe. Wanting to prevent terror attacks on US soil is NOT hate and intolerance you dick. Speaking FACT of rapists, murderers and gang members sneaking over the border is NOT hate and intolerance jerkoff! To me there's no need to watch the rest of what he says because this is a guy reading something he was told to say. Sorry for the language but this just utterly infuriates me, I had to let off some steam.

As a loony lib, you cannot be expected to understand how Mexico pays for the wall anymore than you don’t understand that “free” web-based services like Google, Facebook and LinkedIn are raking in billions of dollars in revenue and valuation because YOU are the PRODUCT ...

BTW, shouldn’t you be harvesting Democrat votes down in Orange County and not wasting your valuable time on inferior beings like law-abiding, God fearing conservatives?

it’s all just Kabuki Theater and won’t move the polls one iota, primarily because the 99.5%, 24x7x600 days of negative fake news attacks on Trump by the dying lying fake stream enemedia have desensitized and immunized folks from this garbage, thus 99.8% negative fake news attacks on Trump by the dying lying fake stream enemedia will have no more impact than 99.5% has had ...

If you have proof that President Trump lied, present it.

Bottom Line for today: Democrat, Michael Cohen ends being a “Total Zero”. No one watched, no one cared for this loser, lie teller, traitor, turncoat low life human scum & vermin. He, Cohen, will however, have a grand time while serving his well deserved prison sentance...maybe?

I don’t care if he lied about screwing Stormy Daniels, but I think it’s possible he didn’t.

But even IF he did, he wasn't lying that it was NOT "an affair". A one time sexual tryst 12 or 13 years ago is not an affair. An affair implies an ongoing relationship of which Trump HAS had with women not his wife. Semantics? Maybe. But that is personal stuff that the Dims seem not at all concerned about when it's their own doing it. Such hypocrites!

"He speaks in a code.

Describe the code....idiot."

_______________

Sacajaweau, you seem just a bit confused and wrongly angry. Allow me to explain.

Early in Cohen's testimony Cohen was talking about how he knew Trump wanted him (Cohen) to do something.

Cohen then explained it this way ....

"Trump doesn't give orders, he speaks in a code." Cohen went on to add that Trump would say things like, "You know, that is the nicest tie I've ever seen."

Understand now?
