So are the folks who voted for trump.

[busymom]

So, what happened?  They forgot to get together to coordinate the latest round of lies?  

[Opti]

Does that mean Trump pressured him to walk back his statement?

Who the fuck knows? 

When you deal with 2 egos this big and toss in some dementia on both sides,  you have a train wreck of epic proportions.  

[grumpyhermit]

JFC, do these idiots even talk to each other before running to the press? Or maybe DT is just that erratic and prone to throwing his minions under the bus when he realizes the spin isn't going the way he thought it would.

Either way, it's utterly ridiculous.

Did anyone NOT see this coming?

You're assuming they ever coordinated their lies. The evidence says otherwise.

The last WH press conference was grim, various reporters attempting to pin SHS down on whether or not she was also blatantly lying about the whole Stormy thing, or simply asked Trump what his 'spin of the day was' and let him pick from his own menu of possible 'right' answers.

Which she then reported to the press and millions of Americans as the 'truth as of this moment.'

[happyhoix]

Speaking of lying, there are so many lies coming from the WH at this point that the fact that Trump dictated that glowing letter to his personal physician, getting the doctor to lie about Trump's health in glowing terms, seems to have completely fallen right out of the headlines.

Can you imagine the shit storm in the media if Bush Jr or Obama got caught writing their own physician report? Now it gets eclipsed so quickly an even bigger lie (or swarm of lies) that no one even gives a shit anymore.

Read how Trump explains how Rudi was mistaken. Same shit, different incident.

I can't keep up with all his lies.  Wonder if he does this with his family too?

You think Melania believes him when he claims he doesn't sleep around, or that his kids think his hair is real?

His family probably understands his loose definition of 'the truth' better than the rest of us.

Mr. Trump also sought on Friday to dispel reports of tension between him and John F. Kelly, his chief of staff, telling reporters that “we have a great relationship. He’s doing a great job as chief of staff. I could not be more happy. So I just want to tell you that.”

Well, that's a pretty good indication that Kelly is on the way out.

Straight from the horse's mouth (with a sincere apology to all the horses out there):

"...He'll get his facts straight," Trump stipulated, before adding: "There has been a lot of misinformation. I say, You know what? Learn before you speak. It's a lot easier."
Calling Giuliani a "great guy," Trump nonetheless insisted his attorney wasn't fully up to speed when he told an interviewer that Trump had reimbursed another lawyer for hush money paid to Daniels, an adult film actress who claims she had sex with Trump in 2006. Trump has denied the encounter.
"He really has his heart into it. He's working hard," Trump said of Giuliani, before adding: "He's learning the subject matter. ..."

I really can't figure out what is going on here. 

Is Guiliani looking to run for president?  Is he nuts?  Did Trump tell him to say it and then realized it didn't play well so he now has to deny?  

I have no idea what to think.

My head hurts! The whiplash is unbelievable.

[ken a.k.a OMK]

When will G go?
When will Kelly go?
SHS will stay and lie until the end.
Spicer finally got tired of lying and began referring reporters to Trump's words. Then quit. IMO to protect any credibility he had left as a Naval Reserve Officer.

 and I believe we have already seen a lot of this the last year. Find a flunky to spout your ideas and throw him/her under the bus if the "Nielsen ratings" don't come back like you hope they would. And this will not stop until he leaves the WH for good!

Holy do as I say not as I do Batman! Did he actually say that with a straight face? "Learn before you speak"? That's rich coming from him.

Lol! Kind of like this?

U.S. President Donald Trump boasted in a fundraising speech in Missouri on Wednesday that he made up facts about trade in a meeting with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, according to a recording of the comments obtained by the Washington Post.

The newspaper said in a report posted on its website that Trump had insisted to Trudeau that the United States runs a trade deficit with its neighbour to the north without knowing whether or not that was the case.

Trump said on the recording that after Trudeau told him the U.S. does not have a trade deficit with Canada, he replied, "Wrong, Justin, you do," then added, "I didn't even know ... I had no idea."

After days of media appearances intended to explain President Trump’s legal settlement with an adult-film star that only raised fresh questions about the payment, his new attorney Rudolph W. Giuliani on Sunday said Trump still has confidence in him and believes the media blitz “all worked out.”

“I’ll give you the conclusion: We all feel pretty good that we’ve got everything kind of straightened out and we’re setting the agenda,” Giuliani, the former New York mayor who recently joined Trump’s legal team, said in an interview with The Washington Post. Giuliani said he met with the president at Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, Va., to discuss developments and legal strategy.

“Everybody’s reacting to us now and I feel good about that because that’s what I came in to do,” he said.

Giuliani pleased with his media tour: ‘Everybody’s reacting to us now’

Uhh, no, dude. Everybody's laughing at you now. Feel good about that.

And after one of Mr. Trump’s newest lawyers, Rudolph W. Giuliani, said on Fox News last week that the president had reimbursed his personal lawyer, Michael D. Cohen, for a $130,000 payment to a pornographic film actress, Mr. Conway shared a Wall Street Journal editorial that read, “Trump should worry that Americans will stop believing anything he says.”

(In another tweet, Mr. Conway supplied a helpful link to campaign finance rules about personal gifts and loans, in case the president’s team needed to brush up.)
-------------------------------------------
“George would be spectacularly qualified to give legal advice to just about anyone on any topic,” Mr. Grundfest said. Asked whether Mr. Conway’s experience in Washington suited the president’s current needs, Mr. Grundfest said, “My neighbor has a poodle smarter than some of the people on Trump’s legal team.”

(Mr. Grundfest stressed that he had picked an intelligent dog breed.)

Even Fox news is calling out the white house on this one. I can't believe we found the point where they decided they had to appear credible instead of staying in their corner of the ring.

Well, seeing as how he cheated on all his wives.I would imagine the answer is a resounding Yes!
