One thing we know now that investigators probably didn't know interviewing Trump years ago.

Dude is a prolific liar. Not just occasional liar. Like a top tier liar. And although I've seen him before throughout the years before he was President, I never suspected he was such a bullshitter extraordinaire.

I suspect everything he said then is questionable when it comes to his own behavior.

1. Please. Everyone in New York City knew he was a scumbag.

And screamed it loudly when he started his national political career with the obvious lies about Obama's birth certificate.

No proof ever of any investigators or mysterious "witnesses" who claimed something improper or fishy about it. Obama proved him a liar when he finally released it, and the media yanked and moved on, refusing to hold Donnie to account even after being proved a liar.

Since then, he's become the most thoroughly documented liar in history, but the media and republicans insist no one cares. They cared when bill Clinton lied once about a consensual fling, hoo boy that was a major scandal; but Donnie is free to lie tens of thousands of times and hey, that's just Donnie being Donnie.

Donnie's entire business model involved promising to pay contractors for their labor and materials, then forcing them to sue to collect, usually settling for a fraction by leveraging the cost in time and money of collecting through the court system.

He's always been a prolific liar, among other evil things.

3. Well, that's actually a reason I wouldn't know. Of course I'm speaking about before his presidency.

In that it's so often just obviously false.

4. Yes, "in your face bald face lies". But what's worse, plenty of MAGA just reinforce it.
