Tonight Donald Trump had a rally in Beaufort, SC, and while on stage, he repeated his campaign's earlier fabrication where they attributed a quote to Senator Tom Coburn that he never said.
The fake quote was identified and debunked by Jake Tapper, it was written about at multiple sites including here, and the offending Tweets were deleted; surely an admission of guilt. Even so, some two or more hours later, Donald Trump went ahead and repeated it and pretended that it was true in his ongoing effort to dishonestly smear Ted Cruz as, get this, dishonest.

Notice how CNN first puts it up there as fact and the guest has to correct. This, after it was CNN's own Jake Tapper who debunked the lie in the first place!
And there are simply no words for unhinged Trump shill Jeffrey Lord, who raves like a lunatic per his usual television performances trying to claim that the lie is not a lie because, after all, people don't like Ted Cruz. They rely on the adage "if you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it." Which is why the truth of this post and this video should be repeated from here to there and everywhere else. The only way to combat an onslaught of lies is with an onslaught of truth.
It's truly despicable. There is no place for honesty in the Trump campaign. Just like there wouldn't be in a Trump presidency.
Shameful. Shameless. Ridiculous. Liar. TRUMP 2016.
Put it on a bumper sticker.
She’s 0 for all time, supreme losah!
Actually, it’s morning for me DO.
And I post on many things.

Trump always lies, why would he stop now¿
I have been watching this for a while. It is a very entertaining show on both sides of the spectrum.
With due respect, I think that Trump is a very dangerous buffoon and a manipulator, an opportunist of the highest grade. No presidential material.
But that’s just my modest opinion as an outsider.
Cruz DID LIE about what Trump said about Planned Parenthood. Cruz lied and said Trunp is for harvesting babies when Trump publicly said over and over again that the harvesting of babies was wrong. Oh but that did not stop Cruz from lying about Trumps position.
Cruz didn’t lie. I watched the Trump video where he says he’s all for Planned Parenthood. What did they do? Photoshop Trumps blabbering mouth on someone else and use a ventriloquist for the voice?
Trump is a first class ass. I’ll vote for anyone but him.
And that is his cross to bear.
Donald Trump has "cried wolf" for so long, it is universally understood that he holds no core beliefs.
It all boils down to Trump and his position of "What's in it for me?"
“I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose voters”.
Some people thought he was kidding. He wasn’t.
Sorry, he repeated it because Coburn did say Cruz used a dishonest ploy.
So quit whining TedState.
Your dishonesty is why we support Trump. Coburn said what he said on MSNBC.
Seems it must be more difficult to defend Teddy.
So you support Trump because you believe some of his supporters are dishonest - completely overlooking Trump’s dishonesty in the process.
That sounds logical.
Evangelical Christian who supports a strip club owner? A strip club owner who, as far as I know, never repented of being a strip club owner? Never apologized for profiting off the disgusting abuse of women?
I challenge you to defend this horrifying behavior WITHOUT bringing in Clinton, Cruz, or any person or issue.
So which “liar” do you support? Cruz? Rubio? Jeb? Do tell oh slinger of anti-Trump nothing burgers.
Cuz’ billionaires aren’t very smart. /s
List the lies you believe Cruz has spoken.
A skill at making money doesn’t make one intelligent, just as a skilled designated hitter is not a gifted all-around athlete.
Not everyone judges their successes by the amount of cash in their pocket.
Do you think all billionaires are more intelligent than you, even the ones with opposing viewpoints (like presumably Soros and Buffett)?
I call it truthful hyperbole. It's an innocent form of exaggeration - and a very effective form of promotion.
"I will be changing very rapidly. I'm very capable of changing to anything I want to change to."
Trump’s support dropped 9 points after the SC debate:
....”The [ CNN/ORC] poll did show that Mr. Trump’s level of support was slightly different based on whether the interviews, conducted from Feb. 10-15, were done before or after the boisterous GOP debate on Saturday, Feb. 13. Forty percent backed Mr. Trump in interviews conducted before the debate, compared to 31 percent who supported him afterward.”

Yeah cuz’ un-intelligent people can create billions in wealth, employ 20,000 workers, deal with multiple projects across the globe & kick the MSM & the GOPe’s ass, change the political climate in our country AND cut away at the evil of political correctness. /s
