George Washington : I cannot tell a lie.
Richard Nixon : I cannot tell the truth.
Donald Trump : I cannot tell the difference.

Dear t'rump supporters,
Y'all got played!
This is why we all laugh at you,
America

Ted Cruz in the background, looking like the creepy uncle that gets drunk at family gatherings ....lol

[anhedonicauthor]

You can still find the memo on Trump’s website, apparently.

I wonder what the late great Sen. John McCain would say about Linsey Gram tweet🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

[jaysamonte]

He lied to cover another lie....my gosh he is incompetent...

Worst kind of a used car salesman yet his supporters keep buying his rickety jalopies.

[Cloud-zblw]

I cannot imagine how future generations would describe Chump.

[robertoleeva]

Would you believe him and who has been sued hundreds of times for not keeping his word ????

[REAL-NANO]

I no longer need canadian political sitcom comedy, thank you Donald Trump!

[moplum]

In a fact filled world Donald Drumpf did say "Mexico can pay in one lump sum". This is a documented fact.

[yole]

Trump is right. He didn't say Mexico will DIRECTLY pay for the wall. He just said Mexico will pay for the wall.

[philipberthiaume]

It's such a shame, imagine this 5 billion $ going toward universal healthcare, it would cover and provide free and direct healthcare for millions.

[CustomTies]

Federal workers who are not getting pay checks should use that concept in Trump Tower. Bring their families in for a meal when the bill arrives just say " by telling friends it was a nice meal we are paying for the meal". "We never said we would pay directly for the meal"

[amanandom]

HE IS SICK. DOCTORS AND PSYCHIATRISTS NEED TO COME UP WITH A DIAGNOSIS FOR HIS PROBLEM WITH TRUTH. HIS LIES IS NOT NORMAL. THIS HAS TO BE A SIGN OF SERIOUS MENTAL DISTURBANCES.

"I will build a great, great (steel slats), and I will (not) have Mexico pay for that (steel slats/steel barrier/physical barrier)" - the honest version of Trump's promise

This genius is an example of the US education system!!!
