Per the New York Times donjohn allegedly said "Haitian immigrants all have AIDS". Now even donjohn can't be THAT dumb, can he?

IF he said it he probably just told another lie. Which is worse? Being a compulsive liar or being stupidly dumb? Why?

    I don't know whether he said that or not. But it wouldn't be surprising if he did.

    Hi Rosie,

    That's a real tough choice to make. 

    I would venture to guess he's more of a combo meal.

    Sure he can be that dumb. There would be nothing gained by making up such a lie?

    I can't figger him out JakobA. He lies about everything all the time no matter how innocuous or irrelevant. I think truth scares him so he avoids it at all cost. Anytime he says something atrociously racist he panders to his base. Maybe he saw an opportunity for pandering he couldn't pass up. Who knows? That "brain" of his certainly isn't wired normally or logically or truthfully. SIGH. Thank you for your reply! :)

    With all respect Rosie, I think that is because you tend to insist that he must be either a totally evil person or else a totally honorable one.
    How about thinking of him as just an ordinary Joe, in over his head. He actions makes a lot more sense from that perspective.

    Well, what you are saying does make sense---  

    It is said that the election results reflects the electorate----and those who voted for him were both ordinary and in over their head when it came to choosing a president.

    According to CNN, this never happened.   https://www.cnn.com/2017/12/23/politics/donald-trump-oval-office-immigration/index.html

    NN has not been very Trump friendly, so I don't think he actually said it.

     Well maybe it is another one of those things the truth of which we will never know. I mean did Tillerson actually call donjohn a moron? He denied it but others verified it. Whom do you choose to believe? It's not  easy ferreting through all the bullsh ** and make-believe alternative facts. SIGH. Thank you for your reply LC. Maybe we should just stop trying to get to the truth and tune everything out. Go with the flow. Whatever happens happens. AARRGGHH! :(

    I believe all the other people who were in the meeting and said he never said that. Reading back over your questions, I understand that you are not a Trump fan. I did vote for him and I do support him, I will not think less of those who disagree with me, I will never judge those on the opposite side of the fence. What I do judge is the media and 'reporters' who spread false information, whether intentionally or not. At least 99% of things reported about Trump have turned out to be false or just out right lies. As much as I hate Hillary, not because she's a Democrat, I learned that about the same percentage of stories about her have turned out to false as well. The news has changed over the years, and not in a positive way. Reporters used to just report the facts as they happened and kept their personal opinions out of the stories. Now, if a reporter does not like someone, they go out of their way to slur, slander and lie about the person. I feel that our job as citizens is to ferret out the true information from all the bullsh*t that the media is feeding us. I seldom accept what I see on the news anymore, even the positive things reported about Trump. It's all smoke and mirrors to get us to believe as the reporter does. CNN is one of the biggest offenders as they have been caught in so many false reports over the years. There were several articles from several different media sources who stated what CNN did about Trump saying this, I only chose the CNN source because it nearly knocked me out of my chair to see them saying this never happened.

    I give up LC. Truth  be dam*ed! You cannot possibly ever be sure of any source. It doesn't matter what the political label. However vis a vis me and the donald john. I think he is evil. I loathe him. He lies all the time. I believe the women who say he sexually accosted them. He bragged about it on "Access Hollywood". I despise it when he goes after people viciously just because they don't kiss his a** or agree with him. I think he is definitely mentally ill. What he does/says is not rational or reasonable or sensible or logical. He plays to his base some of which (not all) is RACIST. He does so shamelessly. Now what you think about him doesn't matter to me. I am not trying to convince anyone of anything. I don't lie about what I see/perceive/experience/think. Could it  be wrong? Of course it could. Thank you for your reply Why would you waste any time at all going  back over things I've said? Seriously. I'm sure you have much better things to do with your time. I'm not being snarky or sarcastic. I have people who track me just to insult me. I have never tracked anyone at any time for any reason? Why? Because I honestly just don't give a dam*! I'm here to ask questions as they occur to me. Also to respond to those who are CIVIL as best as I can. I will never catch up and get further behind but I try my best . I ignore people who show up just to insult.  OK. That's it. If I'm your cuppa tea great. If not  that's ok. You're not the first nor will you be the last who dislikes what I think, what I say, how I say it. Thank you for your reply. This post was edited by RosieG at December 26, 2017 9:40 AM MST

    I looked over them because of what I’ve read about you on here, no other reason. I’ve looked back on questions of other members as well, not just yours. I’m simply trying to get the lay of the land. One person corrected a typo I made and I looked back over his and found out he does that to everyone so I did not take it personally. I’ve looked over those who have sent friend requests as well and deleted one because all he asks are questions about wearing trash bags. If I thought your questions were offensive, I would not be talking with you now.
