It Should Be a Bigger Story That the President of the United States Is a Lying Motherfucker


Noted rapist and warmonger Donald Trump lies to everyone. For his entire life, he has lied. To list his lies would be to write his biography because it is merely a series of lies, from his personal relationships to his business deals to his contracts with others to his image on his stupid TV show to his campaigns for president to his press conferences to his dealings with other countries. Every single thing is a fucking lie. He lies so much he can't keep track of what he lied about and when someone says he said one thing but now says another, he waves it off and tells a third lie and just plows ahead, ready to lie again. That's how he discusses the war in Iran, declaring victory, declaring that the rest of the world needs to open up the Strait of Hormuz, sending more troops, declaring victory again, saying that Iran is 100% contained militarily, and threatening an invasion before declaring victory one more time.

You can't trust a word out of his lying motherfucker mouth, so attempting to parse meaning from his statements or his droppings on Truth Toilet or, anything, really, is a fool's game, like trying to get a sociopathic child to tell you how the cat ended up in the washing machine. You know goddamn well what happened, but that little shit is never gonna admit it. That's because there is no meaning beyond whatever makes Trump look the best, the strongest, and the most right in any given moment. Or makes him money, one of those constants in his cursed life. It's some insidious shit, and it's a huge story that the media covers generally only as fact checks and not as "Holy fuck, how do we operate as a country when you can't trust the president to be honest about literally anything?"

For instance, it's an article of MAGA faith that President Joe Biden left behind a decimated ruin of a country that Trump had to fix like a Servpro guy taking care of a flooded basement. Trump loves shitting on Biden as much as possible. If he's in front of a mic, at some point, he's gonna drop his pants and take a shit on Joe Biden's photo. On Friday, in remarks to...fuck, who really cares?...he said, "Biden and his allies wrecked our country. They wreaked havoc on our economy" and then called him "Sleepy Joe" and "stupid." On the same say, talking a farmers' group, he said, "For four disastrous years before I took office, Sleepy Joe Biden and the Democrats in Congress crushed America's farmers with the worst inflation in the history of our country." And, again, same day, Trump said to reporters, unprompted, "the Biden open border" allowed criminals in. The day before, at one of his weekly testicle tongue baths from his cabinet, Trump said that Iran "had free rein under Biden, Sleepy Joe, worst president in the history of our country, what he allowed it to happen to our country at the borders and even with a thing like this."

But the thing is, as anyone who was even a little cognizant of what was actually happening way, way back in 2024, Biden didn't wreck the country. There are many things to criticize Biden on, but when he left office, by every objective measure, the economy and much else domestically was in pretty goddamn great shape. I hate to repeat myself, but, come the fuck on, The Economist declared the American economy under Biden "the envy of the world" in that we recovered better, faster, and more strongly than anyone else post-pandemic. The inflation rate, which had gone up to 9% in 2022 due to high demand for goods after Covid (which is basic finance stuff), along with supply chain issues and other shit, was pretty much the same as it is now by mid-2024. The Inflation Reduction Act had worked its magic; job creation was still going well, even if it had slowed after the incredible highs in 2022; the unemployment rate was lower than it is now, and the CHIPS Act was creating more tech opportunities in the US. Farmers got a bailout and tons of support. There's so much more, like the subsidies to help people pay for Affordable Care Act policies. I mean, this isn't some fucking fantasy. It's what was really going on. Oh, and Biden didn't have an "open borders" policy. But the pent up demand to get into the US after the pandemic sure as shit sent the numbers up on people coming into the country, something else that was under control by the time Biden lost the election (and, frankly, I'd argue that large-scale immigration is a good thing for a country that needs workers and that Democrats should stop playing along with the Republican bullshit on immigrants).

1. This should be mandatory reading for everyone in the country. Especially MAGA.

[Botany]

2. Biden was the best President of my lifetime.

End of story and he loved America and the American People too. He did some really great things
for both of them. Trump isn’t worthy of cleaning up the dog shit from Joe and Jill’s front yard.

[Orrex]

4. His presidency would have looked better

if it hadn't been forced to start from the bottom of the well of shit that Felon45 left for him.

3. Spot on, RP.

5. True, but management doesn't care.

They answer to the Epstein Class.

6. The rest of the world understands this

Which is why Trump has become known as the deal breaker. Thus, he's become stuck in both a world wide trade war, and a war in the middle east that he can't negotiate out of because only a fucking idiotic Trump voter would believe this man as his word.

8. The GOP and President [REDACTED] have been in a feedback loop of lying for decades now.

And this positive feedback loop has pushed them so far from anything resembling reality that continuing to lie--and make up new even more outlandish lies--is the only state in which they can continue to exist.

They've invested hundreds of billions of dollars--creating media organizations; propping up politicians; lobbying for policies--to perpetuate their feedback loop and ensure that Americans are far too distracted and undereducated to see it for what it is.

And now we find ourselves in an era of emerging AI technology that will make stopping or even slowing this tempest that much more difficult.

But reality is a force more akin to gravity; lies mere fantasy. Society tried this with religion during the plague epidemics of the Late Middle Ages in Europe. Reality won out and fundamentally changed the way medicine was both practiced and viewed by society.

President Biden didn't ever even lie to people about the economy--just appeared to minimize their pain by telling them the truth about it--and was still roundly punished by voters. The [REDACTED] Administration is outright lying both about the current economy and the economy as it was under Biden. Reality will likely win out. Voters will punish the GOP at the polls if allowed to do so in November and beyond.

No amount of lying will convince most Americans--even a lot of MAGAmericans--that it is a good thing that it costs $30 more to fill up their gas tank than it did a month ago; that their grocery bill costing far more today is simply the cost of doing business; or that their 401K losing 10% if its value is a positive development--even IF you manage to convince them Iran was on the verge of obtaining a nuclear weapon.

The [REDACTED] can lie away. Reality--like gravity--doesn't care, and it will eventually have its say.

9. K&R for R.P.

The failure of the goddamn mortherfucking media to call out the orange shitstain for his lies, and to keep calling out those lies, is what enabled this reeking pustule on the unwashed sphincter of America to become president in the first place. And the second place.

Or was it a failure?

Does the for-profit Fourth Estate operate like other businesses owned by billionaires -- to create quarterly profits for "shareholder value," giving the lie to what Thomas Jefferson said about newspapers being more important than government?

[CoopersDad]

10. Also, War Crimes: Venezuela and drone strikes on fishing boats.

It's as if these never happened.
