Liberals ‘lie’ about President Trump at will

Here are my thoughts begore you read the ariticle.
“It’s sad that good people have reduced themselves to intentionally lying because the facts don’t support their narrative. This is a whole new level of dishonesty and a low point for all of humanity. Luckily new media is emerging and correcting the record and anyone who wants to know the truth can find and verify it on their own. I do not want you to believe anything I share with you but I do want you to have this information available to decide what you believe. Ask yourself why the left is lying to you, ask yourself why the left is trying to censor and shut down the other side of the story. I’ve come to the conclusion there is only ONE reason why they are doing this. Good ideas always rise to the top, people inherently support the right thing to do and if you are made aware of both sides they know they will not be able to have you support what they are trying to force down your throats” Blair Anton
Liberals have discovered a new word.
Lie: “to make an untrue statement with intent to deceive.”
Like a teenager who just learned a new SAT word, the left is using and misusing this word to characterize President Trump’s statements. From his most recent “last night in Sweden” remark to his assertion that the murder rate is at its highest mark in 47 years, liberals have incorrectly labeled Trump as “intending to deceive.”
MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell went so far as to crown himself “the enemy of Trump lies.” Interestingly, the concept of lying has been noticeably absent from liberal vocabulary for the last eight years.
This characterization was nowhere to be found when President Barack Obama’s then-U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice appeared on five Sunday talk shows and blamed the Benghazi attacks on a YouTube video. In lockstep, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton allegedly assured the families of the four dead Americans that she would get the videomaker; this promise came despite Clinton knowing full well that terrorists were to blame.
Indeed, Clinton wrote in two emails in the immediate aftermath of Benghazi that these Americans “were killed in Benghazi by an al Qaeda-like group” not at the hands of a spontaneous protest triggered by a video. Nevertheless, she purportedly deceived the families of these American heroes.
The “L-word” was absent when the Obama administration promised 37 times “if you like your healthcare plan, you can keep it,” only to be followed by millions of Americans losing their plans and doctors en masse. According to NBC, the “Obama administration knew millions could not keep their health insurance.” Liberals, nevertheless, played the naiveté card.
“Lying” allegations were nonexistent when Hillary Clinton vowed that she “did not email any classified material to anyone on my email” only to be followed by a revised vow that she “never sent nor received any information that was classified at the time it was sent and received” before finally arriving at the promise that she “never received nor sent any material that was marked classified.”
Is your head spinning? Mine too! Clinton’s evolving and lawyerly defenses of course came as the evidence of her sending and receiving classified information became public. As the facts grew, so too did evidence of Clinton’s intentional deception.
Rather than label the Obama and Clinton duplicities as lies, liberals rationalized them. Obama and Clinton did not intend to deceive, and thus they did not “lie.”
Rice and Clinton were caught up in “the fog of war” during Benghazi, as Clinton stated to a congressional panel. Obama did not realize millions would lose their plans. And Clinton, despite having three decades of government experience, just did not know how to handle classified information.
In other words, because these liberals did not intend to deceive — a questionable notion at best, given the facts — they did not lie.
If the left would use this same exacting precision in analyzing the words of President Trump, not only would they find that Trump is not “lying” but that he lacks the nefarious cover-up motives involved in several of the aforementioned Democratic mistruths.
For instance, I was at Trump’s Saturday rally in Melbourne, Fla., where he urged his audience to “look at what’s happening last night in Sweden.”
The left used Trump’s vague statement to impart sinister suspicion. “How dare he make up a terrorist attack!?” and “liar!” were but a few of the apoplectic freak-outs. Meanwhile, the person beside me heard it entirely differently. “He’s referring to information he gathered regarding Sweden last night,” this person said.
Trump’s clarification on Twitter that his “last night” remark indeed referred to a Friday night Fox News segment on crime in Sweden validated the latter interpretation over the former. Nevertheless, the former interpretation was adopted as gospel.
The left’s “lying” narrative was again on full display when Trump stated that the murder rate was the highest it has been in 47 years. The liberals accused Trump of intentionally planting a false statistic, but they ought to have done a cursory Google search, which would have clarified exactly what Trump was getting at: the U.S. had just seen the biggest increase in murders in 45 years.
Trump used this statistic several times throughout the campaign, and Politifact rated his statement as “mostly true.” But this time Trump left out one word — increase — and the left lost it, resorting to the “lying” label.
The truth is liberals are using every tactic possible to drown the Trump presidency. False allegations of racism, bigotry, xenophobia, anti-Semitism, and now lying each have their own chapter in the Trump takedown playbook.
As it turns out, the only lies being told are not by President Donald Trumpbut by liberals, who will hypocritically mischaracterize Trump’s every action. They do so intentionally — the very definition of a “lie.”

The only people that need to lie at will about Trump are his family, his press secretaries, other known hanger on villains and the 36%.

A few have used it. If all the times it has been used by everybody but checkers totals anywhere near the number of times checkers has used it I'd be shocked. Also, context means everything and checkers leaves no doubt as to where he's coming from.

He claims he is white but probably married to a 400 pound sweat hog and won't admit it. Same with little Tommy.

This is probably unkind but when reading your posts, I always think of someone living under the footpath at the Nixon Library eating raw squirrels.
